Restore Default Domain Policy

Examples 

Restore the Default Domain Policy GPO to its original state. You will lose any changes that you have made to this GPO. As a best practice, you should configure the Default Domain Policy GPO only to manage the default Account Policies settings, Password Policy, Account Lockout Policy, and Kerberos Policy. In this example, you ignore the version of the Active Directory schema so that the dcgpofix command is not limited to same schema as the Windows version in which the command was shipped. 

dcgpofix /ignoreschema /target:Domain 
 

Restore the Default Domain Controllers Policy GPO to its original state. You will lose any changes that you have made to this GPO. As a best practice, you should configure the Default Domain Controllers Policy GPO only to set user rights and audit policies. In this example, you ignore the version of the Active Directory schema so that the dcgpofix command is not limited to same schema as the Windows version in which the command was shipped.
