Windows 10: Sync Your Settings 'some of these settings r hidden or managed by you'

Hello Folks

Im really puzzled by this one, i have been searching for endless hours for a fix and i have given up. It seems there are a load of different fixes and not all of them work. I have read lots and lots of threads, many of which dont have a solution. Some people in the same boat as me and dont find a fix for this particular issue. It seems there are different fixes depending on what section of settings your having issues with. In my case its the sync your settings on my Lenovo laptop x64 windows 10 pro.

I have tried group editor fixes, registry fixes, a few tweaks of the settings and nothing helps. I only tried to turn on syncing today so i cant be sure of when this happened.

I have followed as many links as i can find with no avail. Does anyone have any further help to offer?

Getting Some settings are hidden or managed by your organization in Advanced keyboard settings.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Let’s resolve the error Some settings are hidden or managed by your organization first and then we will resolve the Num Lock key issue.

We can try changing the Privacy settings and check if that helps. To change the Privacy settings follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press and hold Windows + I key on the keyboard to open settings.
   
2. Click on Privacy.
   
3. Click on Diagnostics & feedback.
   
4. Under Diagnostic data, click on
   Full.
   
5. Restart your computer.
   

If you are using Windows 10 Pro, you can try the following steps:

1. Press and hold Windows + R key on the keyboard.
   
2. Type gpedit.msc and click on
   OK.
   
3. Navigate to Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Windows Components >> Data Collection and Preview Builds.
   
4. Find Allow Telemetry and double click on it.
   
5. Now, change its settings to Enabled and change the drop down menu to
   3-Full.
   
6. Click on Apply and OK.
   
7. Now undo these changes.
   
8. Navigate to the same location in Step 3 and now, change the settings to
   Not Configured.
   

Hope it helps.
