    Re-Enabling Admin disabled USB ports on Windows 7 HP notebook


    Specifications:
    HP 2000 Notebook PC. Windows 7 (64 bit).

    My office laptop had typical restrictions of USB ports being blocked, etc.
    Now I bought the laptop from my company for my personal use but the USB port restrictions are still in place.

    How do I remove these restrictions?

    Already tried:

    Appreciate your help on this.

    P.S. I have access to the admin account on my PC
