Windows 10: Event 10016, DistributeCOM

I have encountered this error multiple times. Every time, I allowed the permission of the APPID and CLSID to get the security permission. How can I grant permissions in a better way so that I don't have to grant permissions one at a time? I encountered this problem when I was using Google doc.


The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{2593F8B9-4EAF-457C-B68A-50F6B8EA6B54}
and APPID
{15C20B67-12E7-4BB6-92BB-7AFF07997402}
to the user DESKTOP-MNQ7P6H\Louis SID (S-1-5-21-3038269330-1070781203-1325454112-1001) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

Solved Numerous event id 10016 errors win 8 pro 64 bit

Here is the basic outline ...

1. Search the registry for the CLSID
2. Make note of the Default Value, which is the name (ex. ShellExperienceHost, RuntimeBroker) you're going to look for in DCOM
3. Change the Owner to Administrators
4. Give Administrators Full Control
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for the APPID
6. WinKey + s > type in component services > click on Component Services in list
7. Component Services > Computers > My Computer > DCOM Config
8. Change the View to Details
9. Find the name from step 2 (ex. ShellExperienceHost, RuntimeBroker)
10. Right Click on the Name > Properties
11. Select the Security Tab
12. Launch & Activation Permissions > Click Edit
13. Look for the offending user from the 10016 (ex. System, Local Service) and make sure it has the activation requested (ex. Local Activation). If the offending user does NOT exist, you have to add it and give it Local Launch and Local Activation
14. Click Apply
15. Close DCOM and Regedit
16. Reboot PC

Note: Make sure you understand the steps before doing them
