group-policywindows 10
I have a Windows 10 laptop that just finished installing 1803. I go into windows update to check for new updates and it shows me this line of text: "Some settings are managed by your organization". I click "view configured update policies" and it shows that there are 3 policies set by the administrator, as seen in the image above.
I am the only one who uses this computer for personal use only. Is there a way to remove their group policies?
This message means that you are in a company domain.
Administrators of your domain have automatically centralized the configuration of the machines in the domain by using GPO or GPP.
The goal can be :
If you need to access those options, you will have to ask your company IT service which manage the Active Directory rules to enable those options for you.
The message you see within your settings that says Some settings are managed by your organization is true, but your Google search led you to the wrong Group Policy. You want to scrutinize these:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar
Within each of those, ensure that the Start Layout policy is set to Not Configured. After you modify those Group Policies, you should be able to change your start menu.
You can potentially make the same changes within the Registry Editor by doing the following:
+ Sregedit and press Enter (and acknowledge the UAC prompt, if necessary)HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ExplorerLockedStartLayout and select DeleteHKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ExplorerLockedStartLayout and select DeleteHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ExplorerNoChangeStartMenu and select DeleteHKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ExplorerNoChangeStartMenu and select DeleteRegistry Editor(Source)
