Yesterday I bought a new s10 notebook and I always disable the auto-run because most virus today can infiltrate to your system through “autoruns”. When I entered gpedit.msc on the notebook an error prompted that gpedit.msc is not on my system. So I research around the net on how to install it. Its a good thing that I found several resources but sad to say when I navigate to gpedit.msc it was on different language and the policies are incomplete. I can only see the windows media player on system components where the auto-run should be.
I want to share this files and its the one that I have been using and works like charm to my system. It’s on English language and the Group Policies are complete. Below are the steps that you should follow to avoid any errors on your system.
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 oath 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:
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.

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.
