Description

Enable this group policy to use the Custom payload to specify preference settings for applications that use the standard plist format for their preference files.

Note:   This group policy only supports macOS 10.15 and lower.

You can use this GP to add specific keys and values to an existing preferences plist file. However, not all applications work with managed preferences, and in some cases only specific settings can be managed.

By default you should place the plist files with preference settings in the folder \\domain\SYSVOL\<domain>\customsettings.

To add a file, click Add and enter name of a file that you placed in the SYSVOL location. The file you specify is relative to this path:

\\domain\SYSVOL\domain\customsettings

For example, if you enter:

com.apple.plist

the file that is imported is:

\\domain\SYSVOL\domain\customsettings\com.apple.plist
