Published software not affichageed in Add/Supprimer Programs

[ForumBot]

I just followed [How to use Group Policy to remotely install software in Windows Server 2003](http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;816102) to try publishing a software (MSI file). I could follow all the steps, but the supposedly successfully published software does not appear on client/user machine's Add/Remove Programs.

Could some help figure why this may not be working.

**Mise à jour :**

On reading [this question](http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Server/2003_Server/Q_21346060.html) on Experts-Exchange, tried gpresults. Output extract follows:

```
COMPUTER SETTINGS

The following GPOs were not applied because they were filtered out
XADistribution
Filtering: Denied (Security)

Default Domain Policy
Filtering: Denied (Security)

```

Have you tried forcing the policy on the OU? You may have another policy that is blocking the application of the policy. I'm assuming that the XADistribution policy is the one containing your package? Once done you can force replication (assuming more than one domain controller) and then force a group policy update with the `gpupdate /force` command. You can then re-run `gpresult` to see if the policy is being applied. With that in place I believe a reboot would be necessary to initiate the package installation.
