Windows 10: Group Policy for Hiding Recovery Results in Unexpected loss of Task Manager

I found a new policy for 1803 that hides certain pages of PC settings. I want to remove access to advanced startup, so I blocked Recovery through the GPO with "hide: Recovery." This worked fine, but I then realized that Task Manager was completely blocked from access even by the local admin account. I am not sure what caused this, but removing this policy did not bring back TaskMgr, and regedit now has DisableTaskMgr for each profile reverting to 1 even after setting it to 0 and removing the policy. I can confirm this is caused by the GPO from testing. Does anyone have a resolution for this?
