| 173695 | 2003-09-07 23:40:00 | Ever got this message when trying to update/ install software like Norton, Adobe and others? Applies to w2k and maybe XP. Windows installer, by default is enabled. Here's the fix...........start/run.........type: "gpedit.msc" .............OK............ Local Computer Policy/ computer configuration/ administrator templates/ windows components/ windows installer..........select "disable windows installer". |

| 173698 | 2003-09-10 10:13:00 | Hi Craig, What if the "administrators" have removed access to the Run function also!!!!! They have hidden the C: too but I can access through the goto function, so do you know a file path I could maybe access? Many thanks :D |

| 173699 | 2003-09-10 10:49:00 | Hi craig, when I do your command even with the space, it says it is unrecognised and won't do anything | aroc (3256) | ||
| 173700 | 2003-09-10 10:50:00 | sounds dandy, but how do you use this goto function you speak of. | MrBeef (342) | ||
| 173701 | 2003-09-10 11:29:00 | Our silly work is still stuck in the dark ages of NT 4.0........ so it may be a command that only this version of the OS has...... :D |

| 173702 | 2006-06-25 10:27:00 | Sorry newbie here . I have tried to install Adobe Dreamweaver 8 but the error message 'The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation' . So I tried the instruction given like run 'gpedit . msc' but an error says that the windows could not find 'gpedit . msc' . I did a little reading about Group Policies and it says to run 'mmc' and says about add Group Policy standalone snap in . But The Group Policy is not available . I tried to many things and surf through many instruction and it still could past the error message . Is there any other way to install the Adobe Dreamweaver 8?? |

| 173703 | 2006-06-25 10:38:00 | I take it you're using XP Home?? I think gpedit.msc is only on Pro not Home. Are you installing Dreamweaver over a previous version?? Or installing V8 by itself? You could try the info here (support.microsoft.com) even tho this doesnt really apply to dreamweaver. |
