Group Policy Object Editor on Local Computer

[Bill MacDonald]

Every time I try to use gpedit.msc to open Group Policy, I get the following
errors:

The following error occurred in C:\Windows\inf\AER_2068.ADM on line 30:
Error 64 Help string specified more than once

The file can not be loaded.

Get the same error on line 189.

After the those two errors I just cancel out. I have not changed any Admin
templates as this the the default setting.
After a quick look at AER_2068.ADM, it looks like it is trying to get some
registry settings. Not sure of what I can do to edit that file.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Bill,

Click Start, type:

notepad %windir%\inf\AER_2068.ADM

See what's in line #30. Copy the line and include the contents in your reply.

Close Notepad.

Domz,

AER_2068 is probably a Norwegian language file for GPO Editor. Moving all the AER_*.ADM file from C:\Windows\INF to some other location on the hard drive (as a backup measure) should help. AER_1033 is English, and not to be deleted.
