Question Can't change lockscreen "managed by your organization" after uninstalling Ibik Aster

[xenotan]

Hey everyone, afer i uninstalled the Ibik Aster, it keeps the company wallpaper in lock screen, and when i try to change it, windows says that "some settings are managed by your organization", anyone have any idea how to solve it?

Talk to your system administrators, they're the ones that control this.

My pc is homebuilt, and im using the microsoft official windows 10, this message appears after the 14 day trial of Ibik Aster

Have you rebooted since uninstalling that application?

What does your system show for Licensing and Activation?

Where did your WIn 10 license come from?

 

[xenotan]

Yes, i rebooted and removed any remaining files after the uninstall, my windows 10 key is from microsoft, the PC is working normal about a year, but i put Ibik aster to share it with my wife for a couple days, and after the trial , it have blocked my lock screen, even after uninstall and files removal

I think you'll have to go through the troubleshooting steps of "Reactivating after a hardware change"

Somehow, that aster thing hosed up your license.

I'm going to try that now, but it looks like I'm going to need to format the PC just because of this

Changing the license details should not require a reformat and reinstallation.

Can you do a system restore to before it was installed?

my windows 10 key is from microsoft

What windows 10 version is it?
With windows 10 Pro use Local Policy editor and check, if desktop background change is not locked there.
Or check appropriate registry keys as described below.

That fixed for the desktop wallpaper, but the lock screen still there, cant find an option for it in the policy editor

 

[USAFRet]

Again, what does it currently show for Licensing and activation?
That is where the problem lies.

It says "Windows is activated using your organization's activation service"

 

[USAFRet]

It says "Windows is activated using your organization's activation service"

And THAT is the issue.

This sometimes happens after a major update, or other change (the aster software)

Usually, it goes away in a few days.
Leave it alone, and don't do any more registry edits.
See what happens by this time next week.

That's cool to know, thanks for the help, I'll wait a while and see if that resolves it, then I'll come back here with an update

So - you're using Windows 10 Enterprise version?
Correct?

Lock screen settings are in Local Group Policy Editor
Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Control Panel/Personalization
Prevent changing lock screen and logon image
