how can I find out who is managing my dns settings on my pc?
I am trying to setup ADGUARD DNS but my pc is telling me that The DNS Settings for all wi-fi networks have been set. the settings below won't be used. This is in red. How do I fix this?

Go to Network & Internet Settings > Change adapter options.
Right-click your Wi-Fi network, select Properties.
Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), then click Properties.
Choose Use the following DNS server addresses.
Enter your preferred DNS (e.g., AdGuard DNS: 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15).
Click OK and restart your connection.
Find the network adapter you are using (Wi-Fi or Ethernet). Check the DNS Servers listed. If it shows something like Obtain DNS server address automatically, your PC isn't manually configured. If it shows specific IP addresses, note them.
If policies are enforced, and you're not in an enterprise environment, you may need to reset those policies or seek administrative assistance.
