That could be the cause of this if it didn't uninstall properly.

Refreshing Windows should sort this though.

Hello TechZ,

Unfortunately, the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) is not available in the Windows 10 Home edition.

There are methods out there that will add it to the Home edition, but it's pointless to do so since none of the policies set in it will actually get applied.

If you like, you can set group policies via Registry Editor in the Home edition instead.

Local Group Policy Settings Reference:

• Download Group Policy Settings Reference for Windows and Windows Server
• Group Policy Search (Registry path and key)

thank information , I don't want to do it nor mess up .. rather to get Pro than do myself on my laptop .. 8]

I added a shortcut to it. Makes it easy .

My grandkids use one of my elderly laptops. It was reset less than a week ago using "Fast Start" in Win Defender.

When I run "gpedit.msc", I get the "Can't find" message.

gpedit exists in several locations on my laptop:



Thanks.

Thanks for the info.

Quick question - is it possible to directly edit the items in local group policy via powershell (or other automatic methods)?

Apologies if there is already a topic with this info on the forum, I ran a quick search but did not find anything, unless I'm using wrong keywords.

Thank you
