    no success ;

    maybe the group policy settings ?

    remember :

    SOME OF THESE SETTINGS ARE HIDDEN OR MANAGED BY YOUR ORGANIZATION

    "Some settings are managed by your organization" message can appear due to your registry. Certain registry values can interfere with your operating system and cause this and other errors to appear.

    Please perform the following steps:

    1. Press Windows Key + R and enter regedit. Now press Enter or click OK. Registry Editor will now start.
    2. Before we make any changes, it’s recommended to export your registry. The registry is sensitive to changes, and sometimes new issues can appear if you modify your registry, therefore it’s a good idea to create a backup. To do that, follow these steps:

    Click on File > Export.

    1. Now select All as Export range and enter the desired name. Choose a save location and click the Save button.

    Once you do that, you’ll create a backup of your registry. You can use this file at any time in order to restore your registry to its original state if anything goes wrong.

    1. In the left panel, navigate to the following directory:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate key.

    In the right pane, look for Wuserver.

    1. Right-click Wuserver and choose Delete from the menu.

    A confirmation dialog will now appear. Click Yes to remove this entry.

    1. Restart the Computer.

    thank you Arif, but not going there.

    rather waiting for the program to work genuinely. 

    because right now it does not work at all !

    DYNAMIC LOCK does not connect to my Samsung android cell phone (though bluetooth transfer at the same time is possible) nor does it lock the account (which the program actually is supposed to do in this case) ! 

    same problem exists at all 6 of my laptops independently !

    Okay, will it be possible to arrange another Android phone and pair via bluetooth and check if it works for Dynamic Lock?
