Local Users and Groups

[Guest]

On a pc running Win XP Home when I go to "Manage Computer" it does not
display the "Local Users and Groups". Does anyone know how I can get these to
show so that I can add users to a group?

Use the Local Users and Groups tool to create and manage your local user
accounts and groups. Local Users and Groups is available only in Windows XP
Professional.

Boot up in Safe Mode and log on as the administrator.

Won't make any difference, the local users and group snapin (lusrmgr.msc) is
only available in WinXP Pro, not Home.
