Admx.help down? Or blocked from US?
Posted by Xbutterking@reddit | sysadmin | View on Reddit | 33 comments
Been using admx.help for a while. Saw in some older posts that it is a third party and registered in Russia.
Getting blocked because of political reasons or just no longer being supported?

Just stumbled across this post to see if anyone else was experiencing problems with it as I was just trying to is it.
It's a shame that it's down (maybe for good) because I've been using g it for years.
While GPSearch is the next good alternative I know of, nothing will beat ADMX.help.
I loved the way it did its navigation and was somewhat easy to use on mobile. GPSearch's navigation sucks on mobile.
Plus iirc, ADMX.help had 3rd party GPOs as well whereas GPSearch does not.

Werzaire@reddit
It seems the domain might run out in October, and considering which country it's registered from, maybe something happened?
Whois admx.help

Damn this is horrible timing! I am writing a KB article on Windows 11 upgrades and was going to provide a link to 'TargetReleaseVersionInfo'. A central location to explain the registry key and GPO.

its ownership and SEO tricks are pretty sketchy. I built an open-source alternative, but it's missing some features like deeplinks and full-text search: https://gpedit.tplant.com.au/

Yeah hopefully, Group Policy Search is super clunky. Numerous duplicates and I’m missing a couple line items so far that I need to be there.
tankerkiller125real@reddit
I never used ADMX.help, but from the name, maybe Group Policy Search could be of help?
Xbutterking@reddit (OP)
Actually yes.
I unfortunately work with a lot of standalone workstation servers in vSphere. So pushing out changes via PowerCLI to automate all the changes.
Going through an audit and created a report that references admx.help as source for each registry modification that supplements GPOs that would normally be done through GPMC in an AD environment.
Xbutterking@reddit (OP)
Now to go through 10k lines of powershell and replace urls. yay me!
fieroloki@reddit
