• missing gpedit.msc on Windows XP system

  Hello

  I did use gpedit.msc in some time, but I wanted to change the buttons location on the left side of the open and save dialog boxes,
  so I tried to run gpedit.msc and was missing. I searched on the C drive, but there was no sign of her.

  Is there a way I can get a copy of the program and reinstall?

  The question of GPEdit.msc is essentially identical to an Explorer hanging issue (similar fix).

  Hello.

  I did a search on involvement gpedit.msc on vista Home premium, there are a few methods to do, now it works for some people, but other people have problems.
  I was just checking to see if someone similar to me and has a similar laptop, has managed to achieve this.
  I saw had a link and was about to try this method until I saw the comments at the bottom, where the people had stuck and some had managed to do...

  http://www.techmynd.com/enable-grouppolicy-gpedit-for-Windows-Vista-Home/

  So basically instead of trying me this method, I have while I post this question to see if you can actually do this, or are - this all simply not possible...

  There are already files in the system32 folder, such as "gpedit.dll" "gptext.dll" "fde.dll" "wsecedit.dll".
  And I also have the LmCompatibilityLevel registry '3 '.

  But even if some people have managed to do this, it must be possible...

  Thanks for the replies.

• Problem with Gpedit.msc - local Intranet Sites

  Hi all

  I have a Server Windows 2008 R2 with IE 11 (latest update).

  I had a problem with my local Intranet Sites.

  On my server, I added these parameters on gpedit.msc:

  User-computer configuration (both)---> administration model component Windows---> Internet Explorer---> Internet Control Panel Security Page---> Site to the list of assignment---> active---> 192.168.50.226 box--->--->: value 1

  but it seems that nothing has changed.

  I want that when I go to this site (192.168.50.226), it will automatically log in with my credentials. I've already put this setting on Internet Explorer Option:

  

  But it is still asking me the credentials.

  The strange thing I did it work on another server (same OS, same version of IE, same settings gpedit, same everything) and works. Not here.

  If I go to Internet Options---> local Intranet Sites, on my server I see this:

  

  Site window all is greyed out.

  The window on the other server (the working one) is like this:

  

  I do not understand why, I did the same things...

  Maybe someone knows why?

  Thank you very much.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Is there a tool out of all the windows configuration settings? (gpedit.msc, services.msc)

  I am trying to build an audit tool to extract the Windows of my environment settings, and it compares with planning what I defined. This baseline scenario specifies in detail what settings should be enabled / disabled / how it should be configured.

  Because it is a large scale environment, and I know exactly what I need, I would build a tool of mine.  I've used such gpresult and secedit commands to get the settings but I can't get all the settings.  I've already got many settings in the registry, but it works to be a bit heavy.

  Most of the settings I need are in gpedit.msc, services.msc, although I can't get in/out these values by using a script.

  For example -.
  Store passwords using reversible encryption for all users in the domain = on (or off)

  This setting is in gpedit, but I can't find this setting in the registry / other functions of command line.  I noticed that most of the information is readily available in gpedit.msc / services.msc although I don't know how to automate the extraction of these parameters.

  Could you please help to automate the extraction of these parameters?  I want ths process is transparent to the user / server administrator to reduce the interaction required for the information.  A macro will not allow the extraction of these parameters, while the computer is locked.

• Taskmgr.exe does not work. error when you run gpedit.msc: "one or more activex controls could not be displayed either...". "- old deleted restore points.

  Dear all, Hello, hope you are doing well.

  
  

  My thinkpad t42 machine with xp sp3 OEM has a problem, unfortunately.

  Task Manager is not running.  A small timer appears when ctrl + alt + delete is pressed. nothing happens.  Taskmgr.exe fact exists in the system folder.  This has been verified.  The same thing happens when you try to start the program via a double-click; nothing.

  When checking to see that the Task Manager was not blocked under the administrator account, there was an error in the gpedit.msc program - namely:

  internet Explorer: "(one or more ActiveX controls could not be displayed because either (1) your current internet security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page, or 2) you blocked an editor of one of the controls." As a result this page may not display correctly. "It is a double popup as well.  When you press ok, the same error message box appears again.  Reset all settings of security of IE8.  Made no difference.

  the same error message is produced with the software lenovo "thinkpad update" - once again in the framework-

  
  
  

  Someone (not me) downloaded a program called "personal internet security ' on the machine and also a"registry fix"program that has an icon of similar colors to the windows logo icon, but the colors were reversed (the name of it escapes me) - these programs pourrait the root of the problems and why the machine does well.

  To solve; First, Avast has been run on boot to the top, and about 8 programs have been removed.  (Some of these programs may have been dependent on or related to another...)

  Then, microsoft's free antivirus has been downloaded - but - it wouldn't install, giving a general error.  The same error was given, for Microsoft security program, when Avast was uninstalled.

  A Microsoft security scan is run from the Web site then, and he says that the computer is virus free, even if it has changed some previous registry changes.

  To fix the Task Manager, difficulty in registration of Microsoft was found to be proposed here -http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907343 - but then there was a '0' already in the field.

  Having become frustrated with all hacking around records etc, it was decided to go to an older Restore Point.  The last of them visible was in December, and it would not actually go to these old restore points.  The error said: Please try a different restore point.  Having received updates xp at the same time to that, these restore Points have unfortunately disappeared and no restore points exist where the system is stable.

  If someone like me that the machine still has something?

  If someone could suggest a solution for me that would be great and would really make my life less busy in trying to solve this problem - my area of expertese is certainly not it if someone could help me it would be very much appreciated...

  Sincerely,

  D

  The process of deletion for Personal Internet Security 2011 is well documented.

  It is not some ' try it or try things "and see if it works the kind of process.

  You won't fix with Avast, and a large number of malware just laugh at all Microsoft malware detection and removal products.  There is little to fear Microsoft analysis tools.  I can get my system on purpose infected two dozen ways and Microsoft will tell me that there is no problem.

  Removal and detection of malicious software is not Microsoft expertise area.  There are businesses where malware detection and removal, it is their area of expertise, and that's all they do throughout the day, so you better stick with them for the easy stuff.

  You will not fix your system and try things or any amount of piracy.  It will fix you knowing what you're doing and using methods that other people have already understood by the practice and the real real world situations.

  If you want to remove it and do not have to reinstall your XP, you should consider going to a forum where malware removal experts hang out.  You know... people who really know how to actually remove the stuff and did it successfully.

  This means that people have got their systems infected by the malware on goal several times and practical detached until they understand the malware and how it works well enough to write a removal procedure.  They did try them all things for you.

  You can mess around with other things to try that perhaps sometimes could work, or you can follow the procedure who already figured that will work all the time.

  If you faithfully follow the removal instructions and you still have questions, there is link at the bottom of the instructions for further help.  Although everything that has already happened or attempted to apply may have complicated your situation beyond the reasonable expectations of repair.

  Here is the link with the instructions to get started:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-personal-Internet-Security-2011

  It's my contention that, once your system gets afflicted by malware of this magnitude, you should not trust any of current Restore Point.  When finished remove malicious software, all your Restore Points are not trustworthy and you must knock out all and start over with new Restore Points.

  If you want to get your task manager will, navigate to c:\windows\system32 and make a taskmgr.exe and call the copy something like jose.exe.

  Then you will be able to launch jose.exe (double click), and the Task Manager opens.  The malware will not allow taskmgr.exe to be a running process, because he knows that's what you use to try to remove it.  So far, malware knows no jose.exe (this may change).

  You will probably like Process Explorer better when even when you get the hang of it, but you can get your task manager go.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  gpedit.msc is located in windows\system32 and memory that it doesn't come with Vista Business they don't think Vista Home or Premium gpedit users need.

  and on the deletion you simply right click and delete or just left click and use the keyboard not the BACKSPACE Delete key. Double click on the button simply you can edit the value contained by the key
