WS2008 RSAT tools (Vista SP1 required) now available for public download
Hi All,
Many customers have noticed that installing Vista SP1 removes the GPMC, if it was previously installed. This has come up several times over the past few weeks, so I wanted to put the word out that the RSAT tools are now available for public download.
This download will restore GPMC functionality to Windows Vista and allow for managing Group policy preferences from a Windows Vista SP1 workstation. Please note that the package requires Windows Vista SP1.
