secpol.msc
I recently had to reload my system with the cd provided by dell, and I have been attempting to run the following file: c:\windows\system32\secpol.msc, and I am unable to do so. the systemprovides the following error message:MMC cannotopen the file C:\Windows\System32\secpol.msc. This may bebecause the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may alos be beause youdo not have sufficient access rights to the file.I have administrator rights, and I have attempted to run it as the administrator. The O/S is Windows Vista home premium.I have searched Microsofts web sites, but I am unable to locate any help. Does any one have any ideas for me?thank you.

Hi r_f_m, I would like to inform you that Secpol.msc does not exist in the Windows Vista Home Premium. This is only available in Windows Vista Business, Enterprise and Ultimate. Hope this helps!Sean Zhu - MSFT

Hi there, Do you know why this is? If I find a download for it will it work in Windows 7 home premium? I'm studying computing and tech support at college and I'd really like to have it on my system. Thanks for any further help on this. Regards, MM
