Hi all,
I have Windows 10 Home and am trying to download the group policy editor so that I can optimize delivery and download games faster than 500 kb/s on the xbox app. I followed Method # 1 from this website How to Enable Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) In Windows 10 Home Edition and used the GPedit Installer to install the requisite files. I have Windows 10 64-bit so I followed the next steps of copying “GroupPolicy“, “GroupPolicyUsers” and gpedit.msc. from C:\Windows\SysWOW64 to C:\Windows\System32 but upon inspection of my SysWOW64 folder I noticed that I do not have the file "gpedit.msc" instead I have the file "gpedit.dll" (and also "gpedit.dll.mui"). I have the other 2 folders however.
Can anyone tell me what went wrong? I followed all the steps. When I ran the setup application that was included in the initial file download it prompted me to download some files I think they were something like "Net 2.0" and "Net 3.0" claiming that I needed them, that was the only deviation from the outline in Method # 1 that I had experienced.
If you cannot ascertain where the problem is can you possibly advise me of another way to do it. If I try downloading with the Power Shell method (Method # 2 on the website linked above) will that work or do I need to take some steps before doing that like say, deleting all the files associated with the first method of download before redownloading gpedit?
Thanks for any help, this has been very frustrating and any help would be very much appreciated!
