Windows 10 Computer Spotlight Greyed Out
I'm trying to make my lock screen look as clean as possible and now I cant remove the tips that no one even reads.
I'm still in school and have logged out of the account (only logged in with my personal email) in the accounts tab and it still says managed by an organisation, also already tried running the terminal commands to check organisations on the computer and they all came up as nothing.

Hi,
Please check if any of the Group Policy at this location is configured for Windows Spotlight:User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Cloud Content
Ensure Configure Windows Spotlight on lock screen is set to Enabled.
If you're on Windows 10 Home, you might not have Group Policy, so you can check registry configuration related to Windows Spotlight, as shown in this fix (works with Windows 10):

Use Windows Reset:
- Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Reset this PC.
- Choose Keep my files if you want to preserve files.
- This will reset policies and accounts.
Open Settings > Privacy & Security > Diagnostics & Feedback
Look for "Device Management" or "Device Enrollment" options
If you see Management permissions or Work or school account, disconnect or remove any linked accounts.
