The following does not have to be done from the core, but it does have to be done with an account with administrative rights.
NOTE: The below method works fine. However, in my opinion, the better method is found in community article 10362.
Step 1: Map a drive to the client machine’s C$.
Example: \\clientmachine\c$
Step 2: Launch your database tool. In this instance I used SQLite Manger for Firefox. You launch this tool under the “Tools” section once you have downloaded the tool from here.
Step 3: Select the Database under “Database” and navigate to the client’s database using your mapped driver. The location of the client side database is “C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LANDesk\Database”.
NOTE: By Default SQLite will look for SQLite extensions not the *.db3 extensions that LANDesk uses.
Step 4: Delete the following three entries from the database.
TIP: Make sure that you have the “Browse & Search” tab selected.
1- From the ClientOperations table find the corresponding task xml file. In this example the task was task 3. The corresponding Filename is SDClientTask.LDMS8.3.xml.

The policy will then be re-applied once the policy.sync.exe runs. Commonly this occurs once a day but can also be manually executed.
