Hello, a little doubt, Can I rebuild the GPOs which are allocated in the
sysvol folder?
I want to load some GPO in ADUC having only an old copy of sysvol folder off
another domain.
Thanks,

Edu,
you can use the procedure described in the

In the future, take advantage of backup/restore and export/import
functionality built-into GPMC (or use associated scripts)

As for adminstrator created GPOs, you would need a backup. You don't want to
simply copy a syvol folder. GPOs are made up of two parts, the container in
Sysvol and its reference in the AD database. Copying a sysvol folder will
cause a sysvol mismatch condition, that I'm sure you don't want. You can
copy GPOs from one domain to another by using the GPMC console.
