CU bug?: "Some settings are hidden or managed by your organization

I recently installed Windows 10 Enterprise (clean install, Creators Update) from an MSDN ISO. And now, Windows Update has this message, and it will not allow me to turn on updates for other products, that is greyed out too. I am the only admin on my personal PC and I'm not connected to a domain. I havent made any changes to Windows Update settings in Group Policy either. As it stands now, updates for Office 2016 wont install/download. I'm wondering if this will go away if I clean install 1703? Or if I do that, Windows will just update me to CU and bring this problem back?

What could be causing this? Thanks!

Maybe it is just a bug in your Enterprise version as was reported for an Insider Home version build here:

Also, can't try this fix because I don't have that bug:

Hope this helps.

I'm currently running 10 Enterprise CU, MSDN ISO and don't have that problem. It's an issue that shows up on all versions of Windows 10 as far as I can tell. I had that message on my Windows 10 Education install, but not on that settings screen. Mine showed up on a couple of different screens in settings. I never did sort it out and its how I ended up on Enterprise. From what I Googled, changing some group policy settings will fix it. Figuring out what ones to change is the tricky part. Are you activated?

No I'm not activated yet. This is a recently bought Sager gaming laptop that I use for personal purposes, but is legally owned by my business, which in turn is owned by yours truly. My business mainly uses MAK keys since there's only a handful of PCs, KMS is better for activating alot more Windows installs than what we have. I'll get it activated in the morning. But first, I have to decide whether it's better to try to fix this, or just go back to the more stable 1703. This was a test install, to determine whether all my PCs should be upgraded en-masse.

So basically, the solution as per your 2nd link is to turn on telemetry and data collection full blast?.....No, thanks. I actually tried that, didnt work. Either way, this is some dirty, low-down screwy tactics MS is pulling. I think I'll try the older 1703 build first.

That was not my suggestion. I just pointed you to it with a caveat. You also did not read the entire article because you do not leave telemetry on.

Wow, you should have included that little tidbit of information in your first post.

Ok, mine was Activated with my MSDN MAK key and believe it or not, now has a Digital License. My install wasn't a clean install, it was an upgrade from Education CU. I mounted the ISO in Windows Education and ran setup.exe. Not the normal way of doing it I know. Change Product Key wouldn't accept my Enterprise key though. And I didn't feel like doing a clean install of Pro. Nothing ventured nothing learned.

Some have had luck fixing it by changing a group policy from not configured to enabled or disabled, and then setting it back to not configured. I don't remember what policies you change though. Non of it worked for me but my situation was different.
*Some settings are hidden or managed by your company

Thanks to all for the info. I'll look around more then make a decision.
@WOT: Not being activated isnt a big deal, especially for less than 15 hours. As stated, I have access to legit MAKs, just not on hand, those are in a safe @ work. It's not like I pirated anything. And if I format the drive to go back to 1703, then it wont matter anyway, since I'll be restoring an already activated backup, I just have to clone it back to the drive.
@alphanumeric: So there were multiple GP policies you had to change? I usually avoid GP myself, I can trouble my nerd with this, but he's very busy and I prefer that he work on more important projects.
