  1. Can't change Network ID to Home from Business


    My computer is not and never has been part of any business. It is a home computer. Every time I attempt to change the setting to home it reverts back to business. I went into group policy editor and changed so users can change that setting and it Didn't help either. The issue is causing windows 10 update settings to be locked because "Some settings are managed by your organization."

    Does anyone have a fix?

    Network ID - I can change from Business Network to Home Computer

    Network ID - I can change from Business Network to Home Computer

    When I make the change under Network ID my computer says reboot to make the change then it starts up as a Business Network computer every time. Its a new Windows 10 install and it's never been on a Business network. It seems to be stopping Outlook from
    indexing and other data access issues etc.

    Please help...

    Hi,

    If changing the Network ID is not retained after restarting your PC, it might be caused by software incompatibility running in your computer system. Issues with Outlook indexing might occur due to an incorrect or incomplete Indexing Options. For us to provide
    the best resolution possible, we'll be needing additional information:

    • Can you send us a screenshot wherein the computer stated that it's currently a business network computer?
    • Which version of Outlook are you using?
    • What results are you getting when searching on Outlook? Is it no search results or partial results?
    • Can you provide more details regarding data access issues?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you rebuild your search catalog to fix Outlook indexing issues. If you're using Outlook 2016, Outlook 2013, Outlook 2010, or Outlook 2007, check this article on how to
    fix search issues by rebuilding your Instant Search catalog.
    Follow the steps under this section: Rebuild your search catalog.

    We'll keep an eye out for your response.
