Registry editor, deny launching

I am using Windows XP home edition. How do I deny launching of "Registry editor"?
Where in the registry can I set this? It's because Windows XP home edition does not
have "gpedit.msc"; this is only available in Windows XP professional. When I copy
the file "gpedit.msc" from Windows XP professional and launch it in Windows XP home
edition, "Group policy" launches and an error message appears, saying that snap-in
creation has failed.
To deny launching of "Registry editor" in Windows XP professional...
Start > Run > gpedit.msc > Local computer policy > User configuration > Administrative
templates > System : Prevent access to registry editing tools : Enabled
