<body style="background-color:#EBEEF1;">
<p>I encountered GPO Error message “<strong>The system cannot find the file path specified.”</strong>when editing Group Policy for Default Domain Policy or Default Domain Controller Policy.</p>
<p>Upon investigation, the GPO policy folder in SYSVOL is also missing.</p>

<h2><strong>Investigations</strong></h2>
<p>GPO Policy is stored in <strong>%SYSVOL%\domain\Policies{GPO_GUID} </strong> folder and if the GPO GUID folder including subfolder (<strong>User</strong> and <strong>Machine</strong>) is missing, GPO will raise this error.</p>

<h2><strong>Solution 1:</strong></h2>
<p>There are two ways:</p>
