Hello guys, so I wanted to join the windows insider program but I can't because i have to change my diagnostic data to "full" but i can't because it's greyed out and says "Some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organisation". I have already reinstalled windows twice and both times were complete resets (took away all the data and files, basically everything) but it still dosent get away. This is my home and personal PC afterall so why do I keep getting these messages? My problem isn't getting into the insider program, it's getting rid of those messages completely.

Windows 10 Home version 1909 currently.

    Hello, my name is Arif Ahmed, Windows Advisor.

    I would be happy to help you.

    Please try the following steps:

    1. Press Windows+R to open Run.
    2. Type gpedit.msc and press Enter.
    3. Go to Computer configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Configure Automatic Updates.
    4. Now, Set the settings as Not Configured or Disabled.

    This should remove the message.

    Home version of win 10 does not have the Group Policy Editor-gpedit.msc. You must have the Pro version for that. If you are running windows on a volume license you cannot edit the settings. Check your license and activation. Maybe you installed the wrong version of windows 10. Go to Settings, update and security, Activation. It should say you have digital license linked to your MS Acct.
