Updated for Windows 10 Enterprise, but security features are disabled. Can you assist with reactivating them?
I’m facing an issue with Windows 10 Enterprise where specific security settings remain fixed even though I have admin privileges, like adding an EXE to the exclusion list. I’m not sure if using the Group Policy Editor can bypass these built-in OS protections that are already in place. It’s confusing, and I’m getting errors from various applications. I need clear advice since I’m not confident about managing Windows 10 myself.
From what I understand, the problem arises when you restrict how much data Microsoft can collect on your Windows 10 system, as if it’s penalizing you for not granting them unrestricted access to your personal information. Microsoft appears to be a company with questionable intentions, aiming to gather as much personal data from users as possible—often monetizing it—and refusing to let Windows 10 function correctly when you limit its harvesting. This behavior suggests they prioritize profit over user privacy. You have options: adjust the data collection settings to "Enhanced" or "Full," or explore alternative methods like using O&O Shut Up 10 for changes. If you prefer a simpler experience, consider switching to Windows 7, which is generally more secure and responsive to user preferences.
