Account: Some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organization?

Question

This is my personal PC and account and I'm not part of any organization. Can someone please tell me how to fix this, because I literally can't change a single setting!

Answer 1

Thank you for the answer but this didn't work for me :/. For some commands it even said ERROR: Access is denied or that it couldn't find the registry.

Answer 2

Hello i'm Timon and i'm glad to help you.

You can try this:

1. Hit the Start button and type cmd
2. Right click on Command prompt and select Run as administrator

3.Execute these commands (copy / paste) one by one (you can add them in a .bat file if you are confortable with this)

reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost" /f
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies" /f
reg delete "HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate" /f

Answer 3

Sorry, i hit the wrong button.

Just to confirm, did you run the Command Prompt as an admin ?

This could explain the Access Denied error

Answer 4

Yeah, I ran Command Prompt as administrator.
