Hi, I have 1 computer running windows xp home edition which won't
support gpedit.msc.
Please advise how I can access Admin tools options in Home edition.

Group Policy (gpedit.msc) does not come with Windows XP Home Edition.

This tool lets you easily change many of the options that gpedit would if
you could use it.
