You're having trouble updating your user settings because the built-in tool isn't identifying your Windows version correctly. The Microsoft tool assumes you're using Windows 10, but your system is running Windows 11, which may not be supported. This issue could also stem from Microsoft's decision to stop backing Windows 10 officially.

Do you own Windows 11 Home? That setting is usually turned off in Windows 10/11 Home, so you'll need a Pro or higher version to use it.

I'm using Windows 11, but that's not the main issue. The real concern is that Microsoft doesn't see me on Windows 11 in their tools. My focus isn't on whether I can use the software, but on how poor Windows 11 is.

You would encounter the same issue on Windows 10 Home. The system isn't verifying the Windows version (10.0.XXXXX), but rather the edition or SKU (Home, Pro, Enterprise). Microsoft typically maintains management features starting from Pro. To manage user groups, you can utilize PowerShell.

The statement is incorrect. It appears to be an unmodified string.

It wouldn't be unexpected to find similar mistakes across the OS, given that Windows 10 was marketed as the final version at launch.

A tale spread widely through mass media as true, even though it wasn’t real. The situation happened when MS decided to fix the misinformation, but instead let the media shape the narrative around the subscription shift story.

Express your dissatisfaction clearly since you can't even operate the tool. If you dislike version 11, avoid using it.
