July 2021 Update
Undo and fixes.
If you are coming here from the YouTube video I have taken all the scripts below and a system admin script I used a lot in the past to make a streamlined debloat script. This script will optimize Windows and can be run multiple times if you have an update ruin all the optimizations. I have also made it very easy to launch. Here is the source files: https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/win10script
If you want to just run this on any system, you can easily copy and paste this into a Admin Powershell prompt and watch it do everything for you. It does have two prompts based on user feedback. Let me know what you think below!
December 2020 Feature: GUI added - Select what you want!
January 2021 Feature: 10 Bug Fixes and Network Optimizations added
July 2021 Updates: 30+ Bug Fixes and Undo Options added

What this script can do
• Installs any program listed that you click on using WinGet
• Removed Telemetry
• Disables Cortana
• Deletes various schedules tasks that rebloat the system
• Fixes problems that other scripts causes (lock screen and personalization options restricted)
Based on User feedback Microsoft Store and Windows Defender is no longer touched.
Her doesn’t do anything to Microsoft Store anymore as Microsoft have integrated a few other things into it, so it tends to cause problems, but he recommends removing some of the apps in there

Some YouTube Notes
Yes, I think its normal and nothing to worry about.
I think its something becoming less meaningful as time goes on.
It’s rooted in the more historical and traditional way of when a lot of "normal" computer users had some things they were allowed to do controlled by an IT Administrator.
When some low level things are done, like those the script does, they likely would they been done previously by such an Administrator person. That Administrator person was then effectively trying to control the settings, so that is what that message is indicating.
Sometimes you might see that message or a similar one accompanying the greying out of some user options, all once again indicating that some "higher being" is trying to decide what settings you have.
For example, this was the case with earlier windows 10 version Update settings: Many setting options were duplicated in the direct way via normal user settings, (Advanced options dialog of Win 10 Pro), and in the so called Group Policy Editor, (the gpedit msc in the run window thing).
Once the gpedit method was used to adjust the settings then the same settings in the normal user update settings were greyed out and such a red warming was shown. However since Windows 120 version 2004, the some of the direct normal way options have been removed and you can only make the changes via the low level Group Policy Editor thing
Can anyone point me into the direction of a copy of the actual script used here?
I realise that the script has developed and advanced in the meantime, but its for learning purposes as I review the development of the script: I was away for a whule and am trying to catch up on the last years stuff.
A couple of suggestions. Regarding that, The script is relying on an internet connection for
_ 1 installing stuff
_ 2 and also for running the proprietary software from O&O which does the Debloating.
_ 3 the script itself is run somehow directly across the internet.
This limits its use to when you are online. I would suggest that is a bit unnecessary.
I will address those 3 points, if I may, in 3 replies below, since the YouTube anti-spam Bot is a bit aggressive just now, and tanks most long comments.
( This is then post 1 of 4 that hopefully will post. If there are not at least 3 replies to this comment, then you know the Bot got me again!)

_ 1 OK you do need internet for installing. Fair enough. But possibly the check and possible download of the necessary winget stuff could somehow be done only of you choose any install option.

_ 2 many people here and elsewhere have commented that they feel uneasy about using the Debloat software from a company supported by Microsoft. There may be no cause for their concern, but as I write this I have seen no response to any of these comments regarding the "Microsoft Gold Partner" status of O&O. That script is mot open source, but is there not a script anywhere to do the same?

_3 There seems to be some contradictions. On the one hand it is encouraged examine, understand and possibly tweak the script before use. But you cant do that using the single command run way, ( single command run way = the script itself is run somehow directly across the internet.)
But you can download the ps1 script file, examine it and tweak it easily with any text editor, then run it with a few simple command lines.
I have tried in vain to explain this in detail to answer a few comments recently, but its always resulted in the reply being deleted.
???? A GitHub Pull from July 2021 doing services seems not to have got in ????
