Access denied to gpedit.msc when logged in as local administrator Wednesday, February 28, 2007 at 9:31 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by JM (25 messages posted) The subject says it all. When logging into some machines at my office that aren't part of our domain, I am unable to access the local policy on the network. I am logged in locally with a local account (administrator) and this is happening. Any ideas? I have tried logging via safe mode as an administrator with no success as well, how do I get into the machines registry to allow me access to the computer's local policy? All of the computers that are doing this are running XP SP2. Responses to this message: Fixed!
