Local Group Policy Editor non-existant on my computer
Trying to solve a problem (listed on another forum here in these forums) I was told to go to my 'Local Group Policy Editor. I tried the following methods:
-1- Windows -> Run -> type in 'gpedit.msc'
and nothing happened, getting a window telling me it did not exist. I have set my folders to show everything and hide nothing. A search using both windows and my own ''Super Finder XT'' showed that no such file exists on my PC and neither did I see it in the path it was supposed to be in.
-2- "Enter Group Policy Editor via Search.
On the Search panel, enter group policy in the box and click Edit group policy"
This didn't work either possibly because of what I said in point 1 above.
-3- Access the editor from Start Menu.
Click the bottom-left Start button to open the Start Menu, enter gpedit.msc in the empty box and tap gpedit in the results"
Obviously no success here for the same reason
-4- Access Group Policy Editor through Command Prompt
Same results for same assumed reason.
-5- Open the editor in Windows PowerShell
Same results for same assumed reason.Typing in 'Group Policy' or 'Group Policy Editor', 'Edit Group Policy' and Local Group Policy Editor'
also never got me anywhere--it gave me no results except for ''web'' with one ''Group Policy'' which showed ''Edit Group Policy --> Control Panel'' but clicking on it the new window said, No result for "Edit Group Policy".
Does anyone know what is going on?
My specs if needed are:
I upgraded to W10 from Windows 81. Home Premium 64"
Computer laptop is ''Acer Aspire E1-532P''
No illegal software exists on my PC, (I only have Office suite, Adobe suite and a few other software on it.[ Ccleaner, Xnview, VLC, Comodo Backup, 3 Browsers and a couple of other stuff.]).
Dangerous sites such as Gambling, etc are never gone to and if I am unsure I go there via SandBoxie. Virus Scan and Malwarebytes scan show nothing and are run often enough.
[BTW in tying to solve my other problem, somewhere on these forums it said: go to ''HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization"
This folder too does not exist on my computer.
