This is a Dell PC With Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 At startup I see message "Waiting for Group Policy Client" Lately this takes quite some time so I started searching the Internet. Suggestion to open group policy editor [Start -> Run -> "gpedit.msc"]- I get message that it is not found Suggestion to delete the Group Policy folder in C:\Windows\SysWOW64: This folder exists but is empty So it looks like Group Policy - that I do not seem to have - takes a lot of start-up time. Also - in the registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GPExtensions I find 19 folders I also read somewhere that if you have Group Policy on a Windows 7 Home Pc you must have installed it. I never did. But then I also read that some programs may also install it - Citrix is mentioned. I know Citrix has been installed on my PC at some time I would like to find a solution for the slow startup. I also have found websites explaining how to get the Group Policy Editor installer. Would it help if I tried installiong it?
