Delete a GPO (not the link)

[Precision]

Hi all. I need help deleting a GPO in Server 2003. From
the management console, when I right-click on the GPO in
question and select delete it reads "Do you want to
delete this link? This will not delete the GPO itself."
I looked through "help" and it told me to go to the group
policy tab on the domain, but it's not there. If I go
through Sites and Services I can find a "group policy
tab" but it tells me that it's not longer in use because
I've installed the Group Policy Management snap-in. Can
anyone help to simply delete a gpo? Thanks in advance,
Precision.

Hi there,


Go down to the Group Policy Objects folder in the tree, that's where you can
delete them permanently.
