You may wonder why the Windows shows “Some settings are managed by your organization”. It could be your organization has Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or Microsoft System Center(MSC) manages the Windows update. Or your System Administrator disabled Windows Update manually.
Note: This message is just a warning and shouldn’t cause any issues or limitations.
If you click on “View configured update policies”, it will show more information.
If your organization doesn’t use WSUS or MSC, the computer is not in a domain environment, or no one stops the Windows update or makes any change on Windows updates settings manually, you may try the following resolutions.
