Dear Carey,

Sorry for the delay in response.
I tried the step-by-step process as described by you. But I am unable to
find the secpol.msc. After setting the "PromptOnSecureDesktop" to 0, I tried
running secpol.msc, it say cannot find the file specified.

Where can I find that file. What is the other possible way.

Thanks
SIS
