Windows 11 ARM Administrative Templates do not work.

I am attempting to access the Administrative Templates within the local group policy editor, however, I get the error "MMC cannot initialize the snap-in" whenever I try. This is happening for the Administrative Templates in both Computer Configuration and User Configuration. All of the other GPOs are available to be edited.

I have updated to the latest insider build (22567.200).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi @Noah Grostefon

    I can understand you received error "MMC cannot initialize the snap-in" while accessing GPO editor.

    Please download below fix from Microsoft to resolve this issue then Power-cycle your PC.
