Well this is just as annoying as can be but it turns out to be pretty quick to resolve. If you reboot your client PC’s but find some software you pushed via Group Policy did not install, you likely are in Asyncronous Policy Processing Hell.
First verify that the policy did make it to your test PC by launching a CMD window (don’t forget to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR) and typing GPRESULT. Just look for your GPO under COMPUTER. Also check the event log of your test PC and look for The error was : %%1274
Since Windows Server 2003, XP and newer clients don’t wait for the network components to fully load before allowing a user to login. This makes boot times faster but means that Software Deployments via Group Policy almost always require TWO reboots. Also, you can get the dreaded:
Hi everyone, I need some help trying to solve an issue with Group Policy on our network. This doesn't seem to be causing major problems as the vast majority of our GPO's are definitely working, I just have that niggling feeling that a few things are not working perfectly. We use Crossrider extension for IE browser. Now we want to deploy that in our hole network using AD policy.But when we download this exe and convert into MSI file, that MSI work fine manually on si.

and never get an install completed.
- Delete the GP Key from the client PC’s registry: HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Group Policy
- Turn Asyncronous Policy Processing off by creating a new GPO (or editing an existing one) with the following setting:
Computer Settings > Administrative Templates > System > Logon > Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon – Enabled
I figured this out using several blogs but the most useful and the one deserving the most credit is THIS ONE, in case you want to read more about it.
Hello All,Environment: Windows 7 clients, Windows Server 2008 DC
I am trying to install an MSI using GPO. This software deployment policy is configured on Computer Configuration.
I assign the GPO to test OU (with computer accounts) --> run gpupdate /force on computer and restart.
When the computer restarts the software does not install. The only log related to it is the following: Event 7016 Completed Software Installation Extension Processing in 1796 miliseconds
When I do rsop.msc I can see that the policy its being applied but the Software installation policy is with a yellow exclamation mark.
Where else can I check for hints?
