    Hi,

    I am trying to disable certain functions on a windows xp pc at work that is not networked or on th domain i.e it is stand alone. The features I am trying to disable are for a user account I have set up and are the likes of the run command and the control panel, Windows explorer etc. I would like to enable them however for the admin user account. I am checking through the group policy settings on the pc but cant seem to enable (i.e be able to see the run command and control panel etc) them for the admin account only. Would anyone have an idea as to how to do this without downloading software that you need to pay for from the net? Thanks

    Think that's all registry changes you need to make - see these entries for disabling the blocks on those features, though usual rider applies that changing registry items may blow up the internet etc etc so do so at own risk...

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]...
    "NoRun"=dword:00000000
    "NoSetTaskbar"=dword:00000000
    "RestrictCpl"=dword:00000000
