Quick question before combing the report in Full Detail Mode


Configuration profiles found - This computer may have configuration profiles installed. These are sometimes used by malware.


Is this computer Associated with / or Owned by a Company, University, or some Organization which required Enrolling the Machine in a Mobile Digital Management Service ( MDM ) ?

Jul 20, 2022 10:18 AM in response to raj560

Configuration Profiles: This appears to a Company or University or Organization Computer registered with a MDM Service


Therefore - predicated on that as being True and Accurate -  There is little we can do to assist. 


That is because this computer is Controled by the MDM Profiles which are Controlled by the Entity that Enrolled This Computer 


You are Best to contact the IT Department for all and any issues this computer is experiencing
