Hey folks! I recently set up a Group Policy Object (GPO) and linked it to an Organizational Unit (OU) that contains several devices. I created a Shortcut policy intended for the computer level, which should link to a shared folder on our network. However, the shortcut isn't appearing at all. I've enforced the policy, but it's still not working. Am I overlooking something or making a mistake somewhere?

You might need to create a new policy or adjust how you're applying the shortcut if it's for all users. Remember that policies can sometimes act unexpectedly, especially with the way they're targeted. So, double-check if the policy is indeed set correctly.
There are a couple of potential issues here. It looks like you might be using a user policy that's targeted at computer objects, which won't affect user accounts as expected. Also, just because you marked it as 'enforced' doesn't mean it's being applied as you're assuming. The enforced setting ensures it takes priority over conflicting parent policies, but if it's not targeting the right OU, it won't work.
First, you should run a `gpresult` to check if your new GPO is being applied to the devices. It could be that the policy isn't actually being processed by the clients.
