When you change a Local Security Setting, either try running [ secedit /refreshpolicy
machine_policy/enforce ] at the command prompt to refresh Local Security Policy or
reboot the computer and see if that helps.

If you still have difficulty you might try to rebuild your local security database as
described in the link below,

FYI there is a local Group Policy on your computer available with gpedit.msc. Local
Security Policy is a subset of local Group Policy. --- Steve
