Your administrator has locked this feature

I wish to change some settings in the Sep Client. However, even when I use an Administrator Windows account and try to change the SEP Client settings, i get a message that says "Your administrator has locked this feature".

The SEP Clients are standalone (ie. no central SEPM server is managing them),

i found a way to open the live update feture from being greyed out, but i want to be able to change deeper settings.

thanks a lot.
