Need to clarify the situation. Are you saying you were on a domain and got a GPO that you now need to remove the policy on your workstation?
If your workstation is not on a domain then your not receiving group policies. Your machine does however have a default security policy that may have been altered if you were on a domain and put it back on a workgroup. Start, run, secpol.msc to see what's going on.

AFAIK Group Policy is only applicable to domain machines, how do you know a GPO is affecting you? Depending on what's wrong you might be able to use the "Local Security Policy" MMC snapin-thing to change the setting you don't like.

Run rsop.msc and see if any policies are actually being applied.
If not, you'll need to dig deeper to find the root of the problem.

Are you logged in as an admin or are you using a limited account? Looks like limited users group policy warnings.
