The Local Security Policy is an advanced Windows configuration tool that allows you to control various aspects of your operating system's security.
The majority of users like to experiment with it using the Microsoft Management Console (Microsoft Management Console). However, if somewhere in the chaotic settings you get them mixed up resulting in your system failing to meet your wishes, then perhaps it would be a good idea to reset all its settings to their original form. Below you will see a simple command that can restore all default settings easily and quickly.
For those who haven't visited it yet, the Local Group Policy Editor console is launched by simultaneously pressing the Win + R keys on your keyboard and in the Run window that appears, typing the phrase secpol.msc and pressing the OK button.
We remind you that the editor console does not work in the home editions of Windows 10.It is only available in Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education.
Reset Local Security Policy.
To reset the local security policy settings, do the following:
1. Press the Win + X keys simultaneously and select “Command Prompt (Admin)”.
2. If you are asked if you “want to allow this app to make changes to your device”, say “Yes”.
3. In the command prompt window, type the following and press Enter:
secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\\inf\\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
4. Restart Windows 10.
Finished. After the reboot, your operating system again has its default settings in the local security policy. This trick also works on Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
