I then went to the settings tab on the GPO and the setting that I changed on the file had replicated back to the policy in Group Policy Management Console. Doing this step proved that thepath was correctand thatI hadsufficientpermissions to edit. Although if I tried to edit the policy again via GPMC I still got the same error message. At the end I did a backup of this GPO and then did a restore and problem solved.
