How to disable System Restore in Vista Home Premium

The "System Protection" tab is not available in Vista Home Premium and Gpedit.msc is not present to activate it. Are there any registry settings I can edit to enable this tab?

You should be able to use the registry. Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT create a new key called SystemRestore (if one isn't already there), below that key create a new DWORD value called DisableConfig and set it to 1.
