Microsoft's most recent security update is causing problems with Windows Group Policy settings.

Users on Reddit and Microsoft support forums are reporting that after the MS16-072 update was installed, changes were made in Group Policy object (GPO) settings that left previously hidden drives and devices accessible.

"I installed windows patches last night and this morning found out that there were a number of issues with my GPOs," writes one admin.

"Example: desktop image would not show up, A, B, C and D drives that were meant to be hidden from users are now showing up."

Other users report having printers and drive maps become inaccessible and security group settings no longer applying.
