Read/Write Permissions

Question

L.S

I own a Windows 10 64x system and sadly it includes a Read/Write problem.

• Example one: When i try to edit the Group Policy "User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode", which is located in: <Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options>, I get an |Acces Denied| message.

This also happens when I try to change the setting in via Regedit

Sadly this doesnt only include 'advanced' actions:

• Example two: A game I play needs read/write permissions which it doesnt have. The entire folder is set to Read Only, black square selection, which in itself shouldnt do anything but still it negates the game from editing files.

Im familiar with the issue, its technical aspects and Google, so I tried ALL fixes that I could find

I've tried:

• Giving myself AND all other administrators FULL CONTROLL over any and all files in my PC in ALL ways possible
• Making a new group that has full controll
• Percussive maintanance

Seeing as NOONE has a solution and lots of people have this problem, what is recommended? Id love an actual sitdown in a chat or something. Ill even run Teamviewer to show you my problem (if youre a windows dude that is)

plz help

Answer 1

It is possible that there is a setting that was changed and that can be the reason why you're having a read/write permission issue. Just to clarify, were there any changes made on your computer before encountering the error? Also, does the issue occur when editing the permissions on all folders?

We recommend that you perform a system restore so that your computer can restore the settings it has before the issues occurred. To perform a system restore, access this article and click on Restore from a system restore point.

Keep us posted.

Hey,

I ran SFC and it found and corrected corrupted system files, though the problem persists (probably irrelevant corruptions).

I then ran DISM to doublecheck as suggested and it didnt find any files that were corrupted.

Answer 3

Since you're also having an issue with the permissions while using the new account, there may be an issue with the system files of Windows 10. To scan the image and system files of Windows 10, we suggest running the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool, and the System File Checker tool. If these tool detect a corruption, they will also attempt to address the issue.

Kindly share with us the result.

Hey,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I've created a new user, added them to the Administrator Group, and it did not work.

I wasnt able to change the previously refered to Group Policy.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

It is possible that there is an issue with your current user profile. This can be the reason why you're experiencing permission issue. We recommend creating a new administrator account for us to verify if you will encounter the issue while using the new account.
