Windows 7 Home Premium equivalent Group Policy Editor

Hello, I need help with a problem regarding the ability to restrict access to the application to another user on my computer. For some reason any Microsoft does not Group Policy Editor in Windows 7 Home Premium. I need to restrict the access of another user to all .exe files, with the exception of a small list of allowed applications. I would also like to be able to restrict access to control the Panel and all other files and folders. I still need to be able to access all applications and files of my administrator account.

Hello

Yes there are other ways around the problem, although the easiest by far would be to
upgrade to Pro and use Group Policy.

You may activate just of Panel as needed. for your administrator account.

Or use a file fighting to move or rename the fichiers.cpl you don't want to do
be able to run. Restrict access to where you put the files.

This checklist:

  • Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit - cannot do group policy as disabled system restore, but have no way to activate Group Policy.

    Hi, I have Windows Home Premium 64-bit. I want to create a restore point, but I get a message saying that the system restore has been disabled by the administrator of the political group contact domain administrator. I am connected with an administrator account. I have read forums that give instructions to access the system restore options: file or tabs just do not appear and there are some comments saying that the option does not exist in my version.

    Hello

    Thank you for your time and effort to get back to us, and I apologize for the delay in responding.

    Method 1 step number d makes reference to the present Details tab on the event viewer, where you can get the details of the error. First, search for the error which will be something like Windows cannot process extension Client Strategy Group-side and click on the error and then click the Details tab and make a note of the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) for the extension defective client-side. For reference, see the screenshot:

    Now come to step f number , it indicates the location of the Group Policy Extensions so that you can check if the extensions shown in the case log and the Registry Editor extension have a difference. The path of the GPExtension is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GPExtensions. For reference, see the screenshot:

    Let us know if the steps are clear to understand now. If this isn't the case, we will be happy to help you further.

  • Why isn't the local users and groups in Windows 7 Home Premium active?

    Unfortunately, the page of "Compare editions" for Windows 7 does not show that it is disabled for Windows 7 Home Premium.  So, I think that Microsoft is engaged in false advertising by activating only not this snap-in Control Panel.


    Bottom line is: I need to access the Panel to ensure that I am in the Visual Studio debugger users group.  So, I can't debug anything.  The software does not work properly.


    Microsoft should immediately activate this feature.

    I'm sorry, but no original version of Windows has always included local users and groups .

    -Click Start (lower left corner of the desktop)
    -Right click on "computer" and select Properties.
    -On the left side, just below the tasks, select "Device Manager".
    -Locate your device, right click and select Properties.
    -Select the tab 'pilot' and click on uninstall.
    -Click ok and restart the computer.

    If this isn't the case, the only workaround for this problem is to install the latest driver on the manufacturer's Web site to overwrite the current driver.
