No Security tab on folders and a missing group policy editor

Hi Mike,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.

As per the description, you want to enable Security tab on folders. I suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.

• Type regedit in RUN dialog box and press Enter. It'll open Registry Editor.
• Now go to following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

3. In right-side pane, create a new DWORD NoSecurityTab and set its value to
0. It'll immediately add "Security" tab for all files and folders properties window. If it doesn't add the tab, you can log off, restart your system and check.

Registry Editor Missing from Administrative Tools in Start menu

Hi Guys,

I hope I've come to the right place to share this mystery with.

Basically, I just discovered that my Registry Editor is missing from the Administrative Tools in the Start menu as shown in the image below:





However, when I view Administrative Tools in File Explorer, it's right there in the list as shown here:





Isn't that a mystery? Does anyone know how I can get the Registry Editor back on the Administrative Tools in my Start menu?

Andrew
