Configure Computers to Override Policies
Many computer properties are configured by the policy that is assigned to the computer. You can configure these properties at the computer level to override the policy. You can also discover overrides that have been configured for a computer.
Tip:
Override a policy setting on a computer only when you are certain that the override is unique for that computer. As much as possible, you should use policies to configure security and avoid overrides: For information about configuring policy settings, see the Create and Configure a Policy guide.
- Policies can be assigned to multiple computers, so you can re-use configuration work.
- Policies are more easily managed than computer overrides.
