Policy was intentionally disabled in Home Edition. Even if you created a
*.pol file in the %windir% with a copy of gpedit, Home would not read it and
apply the setting to the registry. If you want Policy, you want Pro or better.

Group Policies are not supported on WinXP Home. You would need WinXP
Pro in order to use gpedit.msc.

That's one of the differences between XP Home and Professional. It
only exists on Professional.
