Unlock WINDOWS Group Edit

The “gpedit.msc” is not included in the Home versions. Because unlocking WINDOWS Group Edit is a simple solution that is rarely needed.

There is no video for this article, but the whole thing is very easy to do.

You create a “New file” on the desktop, under Downloads or another storage location that suits you.

Name the file “gpedit.bat”, edit the file and add the following content to the file “gpedit.bat”:

@echo off
pushd "%~dp0"
dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~3.mum >List.txt dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~3.mum >>List.txt
for /f %%i in ('findstr /i . List.txt 2^>nul') do dism /online /norestart /add-package:"%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\%%i"
pause

Now “save” and “exit”.

At the bottom left, next to the WINDOWS icon, enter “cmd” in the search field and select “Run CMD as administrator” from the suggestions.

Change to the directory where you saved the file “gpedit.bat” and start it by entering :

gpedit.bat

Wait until all processes are completed, you will see a message in the CMD window.

Starting the Group Police Editor “gpedit.msc”
