The troubleshooting for this is the same as that, when you receive a message Some settings are managed by your organization – and you need to take a look at the Windows Update Group Policy & Registry settings.
Windows Update cannot currently check for updates because updates on this computer are controlled
If you are a Standard user, you need to contact your administrator about this. In case you are the administrator, you can make changes to system settings using: Let us see how to do it.
1] Using Group Policy Editor
Press Win + R to open the Run window and type the command gpedit.msc. Press Enter to open the Group Policy Editor. Navigate to the following folder: On the right-pane, locate the policy Configure Automatic Updates and double-click on it to open its Properties. Shift the Radio button to Enabled. From the drop-down menu for Configure automatic updating, select 5 – Allow local admin to choose setting. Click on Apply and then on OK to save the settings. Restart the system, and it should fix the problem for non-admin users.
2] Using the Registry Editor
In case you are using the Home edition of Windows and wish to change the policy for non-admin users on your local computer, the Registry Editor method could be used. Here’s the procedure for the same. Press Win + R to open the Run window and type the command regedit. Press Enter to open the Registry Editor. Navigate to the following key: Search for the key WindowsUpdate in the Windows folder. In case the key WindowsUpdate does not exist, right-click on the Windows folder and select New > Key. Name the new key WindowsUpdate. Now create a new sub-key under WindowsUpdate and name it AU. While keeping the AU key selected, right-click anywhere in the right-pane and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name the Value AUOptions. Right-click on AUOptions and select Modify. Change the value of the Value data to 5 and click on OK to save the settings. The Value Data of 5 refers to the policy To allow local admin to choose setting. Restart the system once done and non-admin users would be able to update Windows and modify Windows Update settings. Trust this helps!
