Firmware protection off and button grayed out

Anonymous

I enabled firmware protection via Group Policy editor, but when I went to windows security the firmware protection button was off and grayed out with a message "This setting is managed by your administrator."

I want the fix and turn on Firmware protection

I think your processor does support System Guard, it is a recent processor model, but I do not know what changes you have made in Group Policy that may be causing it to not be allowed on your PC.
