Re: gpedit.msc

In Windows XP (and 2000), Group Policies applied locally apply to all users of the PC. You can't apply them via GPEDIT to specific users. You can however work around this to keep the Administrator from being affected.

Hello Experts

I also have a question regarding the Gpedit settings.

In its explorer I am quite able to apply the settings like hide the
drives, restrict to purticuler things etc..

but when I apply these settings it also apply to the *ADMINISTRATOR
ACCOUNT* means admin is also not able to access the drives?

So now my question is regarding settings for the purticular user I
don't know how to use that?
