“Encrypt contents to secure data” is grayed out even after regedit dword is set to 0

My Encrypt contents to secure data is grayed out on my computer.

I have already gone:

Into the regedit and set NtfsDisableEncrypton to 0 and rebooted.

To Admin Tools > System in Control Panel and set Encrypting File System (EFS) to Automatic in start up. I have rebooted after this.

The checkbox is still grayed out! Can someone please help? Thanks.

have you tried running the command, in addition to the reg key? fsutil behavior set disableencryption 0. Also, that reg key is supposed to occur in several places. have you changed them all? technipages.com/disable-windows-file-encryption-efs

@FrankThomas Sorry for the late reply. I just tried entering that command in cmd with admin and rebooted. Encrypt contents to secure data is still grayed out. Do you have anymore ideas how to fix this?

If you're running Windows 10 Home Edition, EFS encryption is not available.
