Windows 8.1 DEP grayed out.

I'm trying to compose myself here so I'll keep it short.
I am logged in as administrator, running command prompt as admin and executing said commands, yet after restart DEP is still grayed out e.g. cannot turn it on or off unless I use command prompt.

My goal, though, is to have it on state of enabled for all programs and services except those I select, so I can utilize DEP on CS:GO (getting kicked after 5min due VAC error) and off for quite a few other games.

Running command
wmic OS Get DataExecutionPrevention_SupportPolicy
returns 1, so DEP is enabled for all processes currently.

Past few days I've googled the crap out of this issue, and nothing helps me.
Since I cannot access DEP any other way but command prompt (and that is only to turn it on or off) this is frustrating, because I need it enabled for all programs and services except those I manually select, AFAIK you cannot do this via command prompt.

UAC is dsabled.
