How do I open Export Policies?

Export Policies
 to create an XML file containing the current

 policy settings.
The exported policies are limited to the policies accessible by the logged-on user. If the logged-on user does not have Read, Execute, or List Children permissions for a policy or its parent folders, that policy is not exported.
Use an XML or text comparison tool to determine policy changes between exported policy files.
