This is a personal laptop with a clean install of windows 10 pro. There are NO programs and its a completely blank OS.

 

Here is what i have tried.

 

Reset Group Policy Manager

Set the Privacy to Full (instead of basic)

Disabled windows update

Enabled and set Telemetry to full.

 

I have followed countless tutorials on line and none of them has helped.

 

I get to the menu by right clicking a network and click properties. I am trying to randomize my MAC address and i see this option on other computers but not mine for some reason.

Trying to change MAC addr on WiFi adapter or wired Ethernet?

If its WiFi; than some wireless manufactures do not implement this ability in most windows drivers. You would have to buy a special wireless adapter that supports changing the MAC address.

 

Check if you can by going to adapter properties -> configure -> advanced -> NETWORK ADDRESS. If you see network address option than you can change it.

If it still says "managed by organization" than your computer is either joined to a domain or there is a local policy that you need to enable.disable in gpedit.msc

 

If network address is missing than the card does not support this.

How would I check if I'm part of a domain and how what policy could it be
