Group policies refresh is late to apply its setting
-
Hi, I have configure group policies in order to set an application automatically to the client after they start their computer. But I found it is the problem that the software would be setup after I set the group policies around 30mn. What I want is: after an administrator apply the group policies of setup a software to each computer client that start PC after the group policies is applied. I also use the command gpupdate/force to refresh the group policies, but it still not working. I have to wait around 45mn in order see an installation to each client. Does any people have any idea to solve this problem?

I'm not sure I understand your question. There is always some degree of latency, because the actual setup does not exist on the client machine, it is only assigned. That means that when each client starts up, it has to first transfer the setup to the local machine from some central network location. Only then does the actual setup run. If you are starting a lot of clients at the same time maybe what you are seeing is a long delay because of competition for network bandwidth as a large number of clients all try to download the same package????

Thank you very much for your comment. But in my case, I try to use it in my computer lap which have only 2 computer. One is the client and another one is the server. After I refresh the group policies around the first 20mn, it is not running the setup and the file that I want to setup automatically is the AdminPack.msi which contain around 10MB. What I want is the installation apply to every machine since the time that I apply and refresh the group policies. Because in business environment, time is really valueable. Any idea?
