Hi guys, I am not apart of any network, but when I want to creat a restore point from the System Restore, a message said that the system restore has been disabled by the group policy, and I have to contact my domain administrator, but the thing is that I have ONLY one PC in the house, and I am NOT a part of any network, plus I am the ONLY administrator, yet, I have this message every time I want to creat a restore point. SO PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!
Thank you for this great website!! keep moving forward.

Where did you get this 'puter from?

the computer was part of a domain.

if your user account is the local machine administrator account, you can simply open up the control panel, click the system icon, click the computer name tab, and change the affiliation of the computer to a workgroup.

work computer brought home??

In any event, if logged in as admin and not part of a domain it should be as easy as opening mmc, adding the snap-in for GP editor, and changing the option.
