Hello , The Group Policy editor is reserved for Vista Business and Vista Ultimate users. You can set individual registry keys if you don't mind googling for them, but it is Bit Difficult to do that .

I don't think that you can add the Group Policy Editor to the home versions.However, you can usually get by without the Group Policy Editor in the home versions of Vista. The vast majority of the settings in group policy can be made with direct registry edits, if you are comfortable with editing the registry.You can the download the Group Policy Settings Reference Whicg might be available on the internet it contains all of the group policy settings with a description of each setting and the corresponding location in the registry for each setting.
