Joao, you sure can. Oh, it also appears that you can launch ANY app from this explorer without having to add it to the menu. Little tip. This is by far the best thing microsoft could have done to secure windows 7 on my computer, something that I installed since the M3 build. And now this release candidate. To let others know, I am running the 64bit version of windows 7 and I happen to have some devices that some manufactures will not offer 64bit drivers, I was disappointed at them and not with windows since this is not windows fault!
But now that microsoft has spent the time and effort to put this out, I might as well let other people know;. I was happy by the fact that I can now use by old 32bit hardware even though I was running 64bit and only 32bit drivers are available for it! Now that I said that, how does it work for you?
If you have one of these devices with 32bit drivers only, does it work for you? Give it a try. And for your info, my device was a usb gps with internal storage that can only be accessed by a tool with the right drivers installed to it can update its files. It shows up as communication device under the usb option of microsoft virtual pc. In Virtual PC it's possible to share only the drives or folders you really need to share, with the new Windows Virtual PC that is gone and I really don't like the idea that a less secure OS has access to all my file.
OK, it cannot write in the Program Files and Windows folders, but it still have full access to all the data on the host OS and that is pretty bad. I need integration and folder sharing for Windows Server as well.
I don't seem to be successful. In the XP Mode beta, offline files seems to be enabled. Is that being used to sync files across the VM and Windows 7? Thanks Rafael for all this info. I tried Windows XP mode on Win 7. It's quite a bit slow. It is still in beta stage so I hope it will improve. As for now VMWare is the champ of Virtualization. Unity mode works like a charm on Windows 7.
I'm wondered about this before.. Why didn't they just virtualize an XP compatibility mode in the first place and make Vista a completely new kernel and architecture without worrying about compatibility? Even with Windows 7, it appears this is just to guarantee compatibility with old apps… They could have used it as an opportunity to make major changes to the system without worrying about old apps.
Just to tell everyone, this is available to download on torrent site.. Will it fail to run at all? The reason why i'm asking this is because on my Compaq laptop, even though the AMD-V compatiblility check finishes successfully, it's only checking if the CPU has the extenstions, and does not cheque the actual hardware support in the bios at least to my belief.
Since OEM bios' are heavily modified and the settings all hidden, i'm unable to determine if it's enabled or not. So, in light of that, could Virtual XP be using software mode, if it doesn't detect virtualisation enabled in the bios? Been playing with this feature and found the Start Menu Publishing has a exclusion list in the VM registry.
Anything listed in there won't show on the Windows 7 Start Menu. Registry Key:. In there you'll find things like explorer. I deleted explorer. I now can kiss x86 Windows goodbye. Any way to get XP mode to utilize more than just your main monitor? It looks like it's using seemless RDP to present the apps on the windows 7 desktop.

Manage all your internet downloads with this easy-to-use manager. It features a simple interface with many customizable options:. This is synchronous by default and in the following order: local, site, domain, organizational unit, child organizational unit, and so on.
No user interface appears while user policies are processed. Logon scripts run. The user object script runs last. The policy setting information of a GPO is stored in the following two locations:. The Group Policy template is a file system folder that includes policy data specified by.
Any Group Policy Objects that have been linked to the site are processed next. Processing is synchronous and in an order that is specified by the administrator. Processing of multiple domain-linked Group Policy Objects is synchronous and in an order specified by the administrator.
Group Policy Objects that are linked to the organizational unit that is highest in the Active Directory hierarchy are processed first, then Group Policy Objects that are linked to its child organizational unit, and so on. Finally, the Group Policy Objects that are linked to the organizational unit that contains the user or computer are processed. At the level of each organizational unit in the Active Directory hierarchy, one, many, or no Group Policy Objects can be linked.
If several Group Policy Objects are linked to an organizational unit, their processing is synchronous and in an order that is specified by the administrator. This order means that the local Group Policy Object is processed first, and Group Policy Objects that are linked to the organizational unit of which the computer or user is a direct member are processed last, which overwrites the earlier Group Policy Objects.
This is the default processing order and administrators can specify exceptions to this order. A Group Policy Object that is linked to a site, domain, or organizational unit not a local Group Policy Object can be set to Enforced with respect to that site, domain, or organizational unit, so that none of its policy settings can be overridden. At any site, domain, or organizational unit, you can mark Group Policy inheritance selectively as Block Inheritance. Group Policy Object links that are set to Enforced are always applied, however, and they cannot be blocked.
In the context of Group Policy processing, Security Settings policy is processed in the following order. During Group Policy processing, the Group Policy engine determines which security settings policies to apply. The Security Settings extension downloads the policy from the appropriate location such as a specific domain controller. The Security Settings extension merges all security settings policies according to precedence rules.
If multiple GPOs are in effect for a given computer and there are no conflicting policies, then the policies are cumulative and are merged. This example uses the Active Directory structure shown in the following figure.
The resultant security policies are stored in Secedit. The security engine gets the security template files and imports them to Secedit. Password policies, Kerberos, and some security options are only merged from GPOs that are linked at the root level on the domain.
This is done to keep those settings synchronized across all domain controllers in the domain. The following security options are merged:. Another mechanism exists that allows security policy changes made by administrators by using net accounts to be merged into the Default Domain Policy GPO. If an application is installed on a primary domain controller PDC with operations master role also known as flexible single master operations or FSMO and the application makes changes to user rights or password policy, these changes must be communicated to ensure that synchronization across domain controllers occurs.
After you have edited the security settings policies, the settings are refreshed on the computers in the organizational unit linked to your Group Policy Object in the following instances:. Every 90 minutes on a workstation or server and every 5 minutes on a domain controller. This refresh interval is configurable. By default, Security Policy settings delivered by Group Policy are also applied every 16 hours minutes even if a GPO has not changed.
Security Settings can persist even if a setting is no longer defined in the policy that originally applied it. All settings applied through local policy or through a Group Policy Object are stored in a local database on your computer.
Whenever a security setting is modified, the computer saves the security setting value to the local database, which retains a history of all the settings that have been applied to the computer. If a policy first defines a security setting and then no longer defines that setting, then the setting takes on the previous value in the database.
If a previous value does not exist in the database then the setting does not revert to anything and remains defined as is.
Registry and file security settings will maintain the values applied through Group Policy until that setting is set to other values.
Both Apply Group Policy and Read permissions are required to have the settings from a Group Policy Object apply to users or groups, and computers. The Authenticated Users group includes both users and computers. Security settings policies are computer-based. To specify which client computers will or will not have a Group Policy Object applied to them, you can deny them either the Apply Group Policy or Read permission on that Group Policy Object.
Changing these permissions allows you to limit the scope of the GPO to a specific set of computers within a site, domain, or OU. Do not use security policy filtering on a domain controller as this would prevent security policy from applying to it.
