1. download the files here.
2. extract the files on your computer. You should see 2 folders in it. 1 folder is named gpedit files and the other is GroupPolicy.
3. Copy this and paste on Run %SystemRoot%\system32 or you can navigate to c: >> windows >> system 32 with this path on the address bar C:\WINDOWS\system32.
4. Copy the files inside gpedit files folder and paste in on system32 folder.
5. Copy the GroupPolicy folder and paste it on system32 folder
6. Go to run and type CMD or open the command prompt
7. Enter the following commands on the command prompt one by one:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
regsvr32 gpedit.dll
regsvr32 fde.dll
regsvr32 gptext.dll
regsvr32 appmgr.dll
regsvr32 fdeploy.dll |
8. Now go to run and type gpedit.msc, you can now set the policy on your windows xp computer.
By default the GroupPolicy folder is hidden, I just changed the folders attributes so that you guys can see it and so that it won’t look “suspicious”. You can hide it back or you can leave it as is.
I have tested the files in a windows xp professional edition operating system. I believe this will also work on other versions of windows XP (though I haven’t tested it, try it on your own risk).

I have another question
Can I copy one computer’s gpedit.msc to another computer on the same setting.
I mean that I want another computer exactly like my computer group policies.
Thank you
sir. i already downloaded it but the system folder in the administrative templates isnt there. how come? and how can i fix that?
Hello kiester,
The folder is system32, you can paste all the files in there. In-case the system32 folder is not there, go to control panel and open folder options, click the view tab and under Hidden files and folder click show hidden files and folder. then click apply or ok.
FYI, system folder and system32 folder are not hidden by default. It should always be found under the windows folder, if you can not find the 2 folder try updating your anti-virus and scan your computer. Here is a link of anti-virus tools for you to use.
You can download the file found on the link at the bottom, run the file and follow instructions.
Thanks for this. It really helped a lot.
hello sir. its me again. kiester.
anyway.
its already there. but the problem is.
its not working.
i mean. i tried disabling by enabling the autorun in the gpedit.
yet the autorun is still running everytime i insert a flash disk.
what could be the problem?
ive done the same process just to make sure ive made it precisely at what it says here.
anyway. thank you for this blog.
u really are a big help.
a BIG THANK YOU.
its from the bottom of my heart.
have you tried scanning your system with an anti-virus or any spyware detection software? I recommend you use trojan remover from simplysup.com. It will automatically restore default window settings changed by any spyware on your system.
this worked great. now what do i need to install the same into win 7 64 bit?
this metod of reaching is giving me a lot of errors so all of this is and miss hopefully this time
sir, an error occurs when i click the link you posted. firefox says it cannot find the server at kewlshare.com. pls help, thank you very much
Yes kewlshare is down for a server maintenance. I guess we will have to wait for them to be up again, ill just get my files from them and have it hosted here instead.
hi,How to delete run options, and also brought again.thank you
Hello sir! The download link is not available. It says that the page is under maintenance. And i need to fix my gpedit.msc now. i have thesame problems with you sir. My gpedit.msc only shows Windows media player. need another download link sir.
kewlshare is still down and I need to wait for it to be online again to get my files. I am using linux now and can’t get another gpedit.msc files unless I have a windows xp.
Will this work with Windows 7 Home Premium?

no problem at all.
haha. thanks.
wer u from anyway?
im from the philippines.
yes im from the Phils
haha. edi pilipino k pla?
nyways. another question.
will it work on vista?
I tried today (8.11.2010) to install into Windows 7 Home Premium. However, it seem it is incompatible.
This was tested on a windows xp platform. i never tried it on windows 7 because I have never encountered gpedit not in windows 7.
wer u from anyway?
NCR?
gpedit.msc is not supplied with Windows 7 home premium. I tried to download a 2009 version and then registered the dlls listed above (appmgr.dll doesn’t exist) but it tells me it ‘Cannot create MMC snap-in’. Looks like it’s registry changes to do it.
thanks for you information, the posting help my computer
you download link has given me pain in the ***. kindly use mediafire and update your link.
Will do
uhm hello sir, just want to ask if you have any bypass or crack for the link trojan on simplysup.com. thank you. because its already expired and i still want to use it.
)
Nope, there are a lot of cracked versions out there but I prefer to use the paid one because its more safe.
hi guys, here’s a file (http://thecustomizewindows.com/2011/07/group-policy-editor-gpedit-msc-in-windows-7-home-premium-enable/) u can all download a run on ur Windows 7 OS to get the Policy Editor
Let me know if it helps
I am really very sorry guys for the previous link. When I started this blog I had a very limited space and gives me no option but to upload it on file sharing websites. Unfortunately I have chosen a bad one. Kewlshare was good at first, until they went down for several months, I think my files were deleted. It also happened that I shifted to windows 7 that is why I wasn’t able to fix this issue. Now that I have encountered a windows xp computer, I just grabbed some files for this post.
Seems like this post has already helped thousands of people around the world.
sorry to mention that it didn’t work for me, even extracting files were blocked…
that can be caused by your antivirus
How you can do this in Win 7 home prom.
