Solved One Drive Shows controlled By IT Dept?

Toughbook · Jul 4, 2025

If i open the settings menu in my OneDrive-Manage Backup it shows I can't make any changes. I don't have an IT Dept unless you consider me the IT Dept which is pretty scary. Any clues to what I have done or turned on or off?

You can use the attached batch script to reset group policies applied to your computer.

Windows Defender will not allow the Batch File to open?

You have to give permission to do so don't worry its safe or execute bellow commands from admin Command Prompt one at a time and reboot your computer.

Code:

RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicyUsers"

RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicy"


secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose


gpupdate.exe /force

I ran the Batch file and rebooted to no avail.

Can you take a screenshot of the error message?

I wonder if I should reinstall of OneDrive. I don't have very large files as it won't allow me to turn on certain folders.

You can try it.

You can also try the attached batch script.

Thanks i have no clue it must be some app you run must have added those registry settings which batch script deletes it.

I'm glad to know everything working now.

Have a nice computing!
