I’m running GPMC as a domain admin on my local Windows 11 Pro computer. I have installed the “Windows 11 July 2023 Update V3 (22H2)” policy definitions and stored them in \\fqdn\sysvol\fqdn\Policies\PolicyDefinitions\. But, when I look for “widgets” in “Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\” it doesn’t show. I see the setting is defined inside “PolicyDefinitions\en-US\NewsAndInterests.adml”.

Does this sound like a problem with how I’m running GPMC or is the setting only available in the local security policy?
