it's an AMD file located in the system32 folder. My account is an administrator. Initially I needed permission from "system", so i followed steps on other microsoft threads and changed ownership to myself, rebooted pc. Now i still cannot rename it as I need permission from myself. How can I fix this ?

doesn't work. Still don't have permission. 

OK, here is the full treatment:

  1. Reboot into Safe Mode
  2. Log on under an admin account
  3. Open a Command Prompt (cmd.exe)
  4. Type these commands and press Enter after each:

cd  \Windows\System32

takeown  /f  atig6pxx.dll

icacls  atig6pxx.dll  /grant  everyone:full

attrib  -r  -s  atig6pxx.dll
