Windows 10: Admin Access Pin not working.

I tried to clear Disk space by using the 'Disk Clean-Up' option. It prompted me to enter the admin pin, and when I did, I was greeted with an 'error 0x8007139f' which when searched up only links to log-ins. I have tried the various fixes such as restarting but nothing seems to work.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

We would be glad to help you with the issue you are facing today. I understand the difficulty.

Remove items from Quick access.

I would suggest you to follow the below steps.

• Right click on the file or folder.
• Select the option “unpin from the quick access”

To pin items to an item already on the quick access bar.

Follow the below steps.

I would suggest you to create folder in the desktop screen & place all the files or folder which need to pin to the quick access.

• Open the quick access.
• Select the Desktop option.
• Right click on the folder & select the option “pin to quick access”

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
