Windows 10 settings keep resetting to defaults

[Govinda Parasrampuria]

Hello!


Specs:

Windows 10 Enterprise (64 bit)

Version: 1809

Language: JA


So, I am working with a Japanese language system, and settings such as the privacy settings, lock screen settings etc. keep resetting EVERY FEW HOURS!

I am completely baffled by this behavior and can't seem to find a solution anywhere.


For example, the two settings in the below screenshot that keep resetting to off values prevent the system to store the history of the Run command.




I tried to make a registry file and silently import it upon every boot using a batch file, but it hasn't been working at all for some reason.

Contents of the registry file are as follows:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]​

"dontdisplaylastusername"=dword:00000000​

"DisableCAD"=dword:00000001​

"HideFastUserSwitching"=dword:00000001​

"InactivityTimeoutSecs"=dword:00005460​

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]​

"ScreenSaveActive"="1"​

"ScreenSaveTimeOut"="21000"​

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]​

"EnableActivityFeed"=dword:00000001​

"PublishUserActivities"=dword:00000001​

"UploadUserActivities"=dword:00000001​

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]​

"Start_TrackProgs"=dword:00000001​

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\User Profile]​

"HttpAcceptLanguageOptOut"=dword:00000001​

I would be extremely grateful if anyone could please provide a solution to my problem.
