Ever wondered if you can get gpedit.msc for Windows 10 Home? Well it is, and can be done fairly easily.
But using gpedit.msc does have some limits and may not work as intended.
How can I try it?
Using any version of Windows 10 you are able to download the installer from this link. But like I mentioned above, using gpedit.msc on Windows 10 Home does have its limits and may not be compatible with your PC.

What can it do and not do?
I have written a list bellow including its pros and cons.
Pro's
