System Restore Properties - "Turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy)"

Asked by orangutang in Windows XP Operating System

Why does the system restore properties have a checkbox that says "Turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy)"? I have already tried everything at:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/srpolicy.htm
When I delete the "DisableSR" value, I no longer get the "System Restore" tab in "System Properties" and when I try to open System Restore by running:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\restore\rstrui.exe
it doesn't do anything. I have also tried to reinstall System Restore by installing sr.inf from C:\WINDOWS\inf
