Windows 10: Cannot “Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object”

Hi all,I am trying to follow this advice:Incase of any issues with file or folder permission then, you can fix this using these steps:Open the properties of the main user profile folder where the files are located such as Documents, Pictures, etc..Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.Check the box at the bottom of this window. It is labeled "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and then click Ok.From this post: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/run-everything-with-administrative-access-in/85656bb6-1b78-43fe-8315-2ebc681a

Unable to check the "replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object." box.

I currently am trying to fix my adobe software licensing issues as it keeps running error 16. The Adobe support tell me that I need to locate the SLStore folder and do the following:



Set "replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object" to a tick. However, whenever I try to do this (check the box then hit apply), it unticks itself. I have no idea why. I am on the admin account the entire
time as well.

Could anyone shed some light on why this is happening and how to fix this?

Thanks!

No permissions

Hi,

I would suggest you to right click on the user's folder for your profile and check if the permissions shows as "read only'. If this is the case, it might be causing the issue. In this case, I would suggest you to go to C:\User folder, right click on the
folder with your username and follow these steps:

• Open the properties of the main user profile folder where the files are located (such as Documents, Pictures, etc).
  
• Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.
• Check the box at the bottom of this window. It is labeled "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and then click Ok.
  

This does a one-time action that replaces the security on all the files/subfolders. It’s one-time, so you won’t find that box checked if you peek at it later. Try these steps and let us know the results for further assistance.
