Enabling clipboard history in windows 10

This question and my answer were originally posted on the Stack Exchange site, but when I asked the moderators to move it here, they closed it instead, so I've moved it myself as I believe my question and subsequent research and answer are of interest to those with a similar problem

I am running Windows 10 Home with the latest updates.

I have done the following.

Tried to change the clipboard history enabled in settings, but it's switched off and greyed out and the message "some of these settings are managed by your organization" is displayed.

Since this is the Home Edition it does not come with group policy editor installed (gpedit.msc) so I had to download and install it.

There are several videos on Youtube showing ways of removing the message and allowing changes. None of them work.

I do finally find "Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > OS Policies > Allow clipboard History" and enable it. But still no clipboard history, although Settings now shows it is supposed to be enabled, albeit greyed out and the message is still there. And Clipboard History (Win-V) still doesn't work.

Any ideas how to remove the annoying message and get clipboard history working?
