How to View the Group Policy Settings Applied to a Computer

I had an Admin ask me this question recently, so I figured I share the info.

As your Domain grows and your Group Policies become more complex, it becomes difficult to keep track of which group policies are applied to a specific computer.  

To quickly find out the GPs applied to a computer, use the GpResult command.  The command displays the Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) information for a user and computer.

The following example dumps a verbose output of the gpresult for the user and computer into a file called gpresult.txt 

gpresult  /v > D:\gpresult.txt.

You can then search the file for a specific policy.

To view a GUI version,  run rsop.msc
