When you post back, please keep your replies in the same thread for ease of
tracking.

The policy editor (poledit.exe) may already be installed and if so, go to
the second part:

To install System Policy Editor (poledit.exe), go to Control Panel,
Add/Remove Programs, click the Windows Setup tab and click Have Disk. In
the Install From box, click Browse and browse to the
Tools\Reskit\Netadmin\Poledit folder on the W98 CD. Highlight poledit.inf
and click OK twice. In the Have Disk screen, check the System Policy Editor
box and click Install.

To enable the registry tools, open the Policy Editor, click on File and Open
Registry, double click Local User, click the + sign on W98 System, click the
+ on Restrictions and remove the mark from Disable Registry.... Ok your way
out.

poledit.exe is not istalled and since I cannot open
settings, I cannot access control panel to install it from
CD, the OS is windows95 and I have the CD, is there any
other way to install poledit.exe from CD without going
through Control panel

There are W95 newsgroups and that is where you should post W95 questions so
you are getting answers from people who specialize on that system.

Do a find on your W95 disk on: poledit and when found, double
click the folder. In the folder is poledit.inf which you right click and
select Install.
