Hi DustEaterPol,

According to the image you have posted ,it seems that there is something with the account .Have you installed any third party software or made any modifications to the system ?

First of all ,please run this command to have a diagnostic and repair of the system : sfc /scannow or  DISM.exe /Online/Cleanup-Image/RestoreHealth.

Running the antivirus software to have a full scan of the system .

If it is possible ,create a new administrator to have a check .We may need to enable the built-in administrator account to have a check .

To enable the built-in account ,run "net user administrator /active:yes".

If the issue disappeared with the new account ,we can restore the old account profiles .Here is a link for reference :
Fix a corrupted user profile (It is a Windows 7 example ,but the step should be the same with windows 8.1)
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-hk/windows/fix-corrupted-user-profile#1TC=windows-7

If the issue persists ,we can perform a system restore to recover the machine to a previous point to have a check.

Best regards

SCANNOW

C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.

Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

I activated built-in administrator and gave me right. Now I can do anything but this CLSID key error still appears.

Hi Eat,

Copy this command "dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth" and run it as an administrator .

Have you tried to create a new administrator account to have a check ?Will the issue occur with the specific folder or all the folders ?

If it only occurred with the specific folder ,please try this "icacls" command to check and get the permission of the specific folder .

Here is a link for reference of using "icacls" command

.

The problem is deeper. I fixed permissions with built-in admin account. Now I as a admin-user (msaccount) can set right to drives, partitions, folders etc... But when I go deeper like on the first screen and press ADVANCED then try to change OWNER this error appears.

I think its good now cause I can get right to folders. That is what I wanted.

Hi DustEasterPOL,

"I think its good now cause I can get right to folders. That is what I wanted."

So the issue is resolved now by using "icals" command or it shows another symptom ?

Best regards
