TrustedInstaller, Windows 10, winSAT

Hi Ron,


To help resolve your concern, you have to first take ownership of the files or folders and then grant yourself full
control permissions and rights. To do so, follow the steps on this link:

• 
  Open
  File Explorer
  and then locate the file or folder you want to take ownership of.
  
• 
  Right-click the file or folder, click
  Properties and then select
  Security
  tab.
  
• 
  Click the
  Advanced
  button and the
  Advanced Security Settings
  window will appear. You need to change the Owner of the key. Click the
  Change link
  next to the "Owner:" label
  
  
• 
  The
  Select User or Group window will appear. Type "NT Service\TrustedInstaller"
  as the new owner name.
  
• 
  Click
  OK to change the ownership and you are done.
  

Let us know how it goes.

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
