You could face many issues with your Local Group Policy Editor. The other day I was trying to change a group policy and I encountered the issue Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component. I tried some basic solutions and they didn’t fix my issue. That’s when I decided to reset my local group policy settings to their default values. Not surprisingly, this fixed the issue readily.
