I have recently resetted my computer to factory settings, to clean it up and get a fresh new start. But after I have done the factory reset, I have begun getting this ''Your IT administrator has limited access of this app'' notification on my windows defender, I have tried following steps to where in regedit you are supposed to change a value from 0 to 1, but I have failed to find a value besides ''Default'' in the path they give to edit
what can I do?

Open cmd and an administrator and paste this command and hit enter. It works
net user administrator /active:yes

Doesn't work. There are no files in the folder they say to go to, and just to check I told it to show hidden files and it says 'Access is denied'.
I literally re-installed Windows a few minutes ago, so this is as fresh an install as there could be. I'm not connected to any kind of administered network, so there's no reason anyone else could be designated as an admin.
Open cmd and an administrator and paste this command and hit enter. It works
net user administrator /active:yes
Bro i was freaking out a few min ago because of this too, its a bug if there is no files in the folder they said so just install the zip, unzip it, put the application in desktop then right click and run as administrator, if ur worried if this is a scam or smth just check the publisher
here is link if u want (The file in the folder that is missing): https://cdn.kapilarya.com/SecurityHealthSetup.zip
