A policy branch refers to all policy folders and settings contained within the current folder.
Within a policy branch, the Hide and Disable attributes for a parent folder are inherited by all its subfolders and setting. For example, if a folder (1) is hidden, its subfolders and settings are all also hidden (2):
An inherited attribute is not the same as an attribute that is explicitly set. For example, unhiding a parent folder will not unhide settings within that parent folder, which have been hidden directly. (You can check this in the Properties dialog. For any setting that has been hidden directly, the attribute check box is selected in the Properties dialog: 
Hide from users. Conversely, for settings that are disabled simply because their parent folder is disabled the check box is clear in the Properties dialog: 
Hide from users.)
Note: The Enforce attribute is exempt from automatic policy branch inheritance. When you enforce a folder, this only enforces settings within the current folder and within the equivalent folder in any child policies.
