Remarks
If you call the GetDSPath method and specify a computer GPO, the method returns an empty string (“”). This is because computer GPOs do not have Active Directory storage; they have only file system storage.
To retrieve the file system path to the root of a GPO section, you can call the GetFileSystemPath method.
