Usage

Main Screen

The application is organized into three primary panels:

  • Categories: category tree grouped by Computer Configuration and User Configuration
  • Policies: policies for the selected category, or global search results
  • Details: policy metadata, value editors, and export output

On smaller screens, the same sections are available through mobile tabs.

Selecting a Template

Use the top bar to choose:

  • An ADMX File
  • A Language supported by that ADMX

When you change the template, the app reloads the available categories and policies for that selection.

Browsing Policies

To browse without search:

  1. Pick a category in the left panel.
  2. Select the policy you want in the middle panel.
  3. Review the details, registry information, and supported scope in the right panel.

If a policy is available to both scopes, the app can still render it separately as Computer Configuration or User Configuration where needed for exports.

Configuring a Policy

Each policy can be set to one of three states:

  • Not Configured
  • Enabled
  • Disabled

When a policy is enabled, the app shows editors for its ADMX elements, such as:

  • Boolean toggles
  • Text fields
  • Multi-line text values
  • Enum dropdowns
  • Numeric inputs
  • List editors

Required values are validated before export.

Draft Persistence

The app stores draft values in browser local storage. This means:

  • Your in-progress configuration remains available after a refresh
  • Stored drafts are separated by template
  • Restarting the app reloads ADMX data from disk, but your browser still keeps saved drafts unless you clear local storage
