As far as I know that red text "hidden by administrator" always means a GPO has been set. NTLite does set some policies when various things are tweaked, so that's probably the cause, even if you weren't notified that a GPO was being enabled. You can still use GPO even on Home edition simply by adding reg keys, even though you don't have the actual GPO page to manage.
Check these places and see if there's any keys there:
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\LocationAndSensors
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppPrivacy
It wouldn't hurt to check both the HKCU and HKLM for the keys (4 places in total).
