GPresult /r does not show computer settings

Today i have to test a new GPO settings, for testing on client machine i ran the GPResult /r command but found that there were no computer settings in the result of GPResult /r command i which i was more interested as the GPO was applied on computer Object.
So i was trying different way, and one was to open the Command prompt with Administrator rights.
So after start the command prompt with Administrator rights and running the GPResult /r i got the required computer settings in the result/output.
