Windows Server 2003 Error event 8194 with error code 0x8007000d

Symptoms: 
8194 Group Policy Files NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM nodename The client-side extension could not remove computer policy settings for '  { }' because it failed with error code '0x8007000d The data is invalid.'

Cause: 
Error event 8194 with error code 0x8007000d is usually caused by a corrupt file in the server’s group policy cache and/or by corruption of Group Policy\History registry hive

Solution:

  • Open Windows Explorer.
  • Save the contents of folder %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Group Policy\History to another location.
  • Delete all files and folders in the History folder.
  • Delete the following registry hives:
  • HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\History
  • HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\History
  • Open Command Prompt and type gpupdate/force .
