    Removing some of these settings are being managed by your organisation

    How do I remove the "some of these settings are being managed by your organisation" statement in Windows 10 21H2. i have not set one up and this is a personal computer.
    I've tried steps 2 and 5 from this article and it doesn't work.
    I can't use Group Policy Editor as I don't have the Professional edition of Windows 10.

I cannot find information what this "managing by organisation" exactly mean...
