Running -ResetPolicyId on a policy created for pre-1903 computers will convert it to multiple policy format and prevent it from running on those earlier versions of Windows 10. > PolicyID should be set only once per policy and use different PolicyID's for the audit and enforced mode versions of each policy. In addition, we recommend using the [Set-CIPolicyVersion](https://docs.microsoft.com/powershell/module/configci/set-cipolicyversion) cmdlet to increment the policy's internal version number when you make changes to the policy. The version must be defined as a standard four-part version string (e.g. "1.0.0.0").
