Windows 10: Need help with configured update policies.

So, I was logging into Microsoft 365 and I guess I ended up letting it take control of my policies, I am not to sure why I clicked it, but I did, dumb move on my part. After doing this it updated automatically without any notification. When I go to update and security it says “some settings are managed by your organization” in red and when I click “view configured update policies” it has a list of policies set on my device and under “type” they all say “Type: Mobile device management.” Also in the examples it has two things listed. “Your organization has set some policies to manage updates.” And “You have opted in for the windows insider program.” Is there anyway I can change my policies back to normal?

How to remove configured Windows 10 update policies

I have run into a very frustrating issue where my computer updates and restarts without notice. I have tried to disable this setting, but have encountered the message "Some settings are managed by your organization", but I am not part of an organization, own my windows 10 licence, and am not enrolled in the insider program. Many google searches have suggested that I enter the group policy editor to disable these policies in the "Windows Update" settings but it appears that no policies are configured here so I do not think that this is the issue. I have also seen suggestions to look in the registry editor but the suggested settings to modify do not appear in my editor. I am truly at a loss here! I have attached a list of all the installed policies, any advice as to how I would go about removing all of these would be immensely appreciated!

1)Auto install and restart at an IT specified time with no notifications

2)Schedule Update Install Day

3)Schedule Update Install Time

4)Get Updates for Other microsoft products

5)Disable Pause updates by User

6)Quality Update Deferral Period

7)Feature update deferral period

8)Exclude Drivers from Windows Quality Updates

9)Enable Automatic Updates

10)Enable skipping battery checks for EDU devices

all of these have the source Administrator and type: Mobile Device Management

I am the sole administrator account so I do not understand why these are here.

 

is there any demand for a system configurator?

Turning off the "Remove access to use all Windows Update features" group policy

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

May I know, if the computer connected to any work domain?

In regards to you concern with automatic Windows update scan. I would suggest you to please follow the below steps and check if that helps:

1. Type Group policy in Windows search bar and press Enter.
2. Go to Computer Configuration>Administrative Templates>Windows Updates.
3. On the right panel, look for Configure Automatic Updates.
   
4. Double click on it and select Enable.
5. You can click on the dropdown to set Configure automatic updating and
   Scheduled install day.

In case the computer is connected with domain network. I would suggest you to please post you question in
Technet

Hope it helps.
