Set up a router and network at my friends today ,
I need to open control panel > Administrative tools > local security policy
Shows up on his pc but not the laptop
secpol.msc in run command doesnt work either
any ideas?
EDIT:
forgot to add that the reason i need this is so he can change a setting to allow him to remote shutdown the laptop
EDIT2:
OK , i learned that its not available on home edition , which he has i think , any other ways of getting into the security policy on home edition ?

haha.
I installed XP Home onto a Toshiba laptop once and it went mad it went all weird, i installed PRO onto it and it was all fine.
Matt you should know you cant access it >.<
True, ive only ever used home edition twice and that was when xp first arrived, then i got pro and ive used it ever since.
so, is it possible to upgrade to pro without them loosing anything. They have a LOT of files and stuff they want to keep and it would take way too long to back everything up.
