"some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organization" Start Menu Settings

Question

Windows 10 does not let me add tiles to my start menu and I do not know why.

I had a school account on my laptop but I removed it and everything else was fixed but not my start menu settings.

Answer 1

Below are some fixes that might help in your case. I suggest before starting to create at least a System Restore point, so to have an easy way of undoing them, just in case.

Allow full Microsoft telemetry

• Run the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc)
• Navigate to Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Data Collection
• Double-click "Allow Telemetry" and set it to Enabled and the drop-down menu entry to "3 - Full"
• Click OK
• Reboot

Later on you could return this to "1 - Basic", if you wish.

Check for corruption

Check for Windows system errors using the following:

• Run chkdsk
• Run sfc /scannow and the DISM command at the end of the article
