Bin Xing,

I am not sure if it is a bug or expected behavior.
Try including sceregvl.inf file into your image under %17% directory or just "install" the inf file at run time. There is,
unfortunately, no component that owns the file so you will need to either use your own custom component or TD Extra Files option.
I have not tried the sceregvl.inf at runtime but I am pretty sure it has many XP security policies in it.

I double click it, I can see popup window called "Local Security Settings". If I check "Local Policies\Security Options", I can see
some settings in "Security Options". However, compared with Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Embedded has less settings in
"Security Options", maybe I missed some components. For example, I can see security options about network in "Security Options" as
below:
