Hi Everyone,

This is really strange since I was under the impression that gpedit.msc is
installed on all WinXP machines by default. There is an HP PC here with
WinXP Pro SP2 that doesn't have gpedit.msc on it. I've tried hitting it
from the command line and run prompt but nothing happens. By default is
should be located in the system32 folder - but its not there.

Any clues on how to get it installed? I want to initiate a Shutdown script
for the user to backup files to a usb drive on shutdown - but since were not
on active directory ... i don't have the slightest how to accomplish this
without gpedit.msc.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thank in Advance,
Robbie

Still can't figure out how to get GPEDIT.MSC going on a machine without it
installed. User expresses avoidance of a system reinstall because of having
to reset all the "personalized" things...
