Google Chrome: This setting is enforced by your administrator

I found a better solution on the Chrome product forums by a user called Gary. The original thread is here.

Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy

Open each subdirectory there and change the *.pol files to *.sav, E.g. registry.pol becomes registry.sav.

Hit Windows-Key + R, type the following in the box and hit enter

reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Google\Chrome

In the command promt window that opens type: Yes and press Enter.

Restart Google Chrome and check whether you can change the search engine.

Any one on windows 10 Pro , this is for you guys --

Paste below code-

RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicyUsers" RD /S /Q "%WinDir%\System32\GroupPolicy" gpupdate /force

After few seconds you will see this -

User Policy update has completed successfully.Computer Policy update has completed successfully.

Thank you

Try to use this solution:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome

Run regedit, Delete the key, then restart Chrome.
