Windows 10: Event ID 10016, DistributedCOM

Every time the PC starts I have the following error.

Log Name: System
Source: Microsoft-Windows-DistributedCOM
Date: 25/05/2018 07:35:47
Event ID: 10016
Task Category: None
Level: Error
Keywords: Classic
User: Home-PC\User
Computer: Home-PC
Description:
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820}
and APPID
{8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820}
to the user Home-PC\User SID (S-1-5-21-4023029420-2456169105-2834210191-1002) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in
the application container Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_10.0.16299.15_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy
SID (S-1-15-2-350187224-1905355452-1037786396-3028148496-2624191407-3283318427-1255436723).
This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.
Event Xml:

I have tried all the usual fixes including added Local to my user name in the Security settings for Windows Management & Instrumentation but the error still occurs.

I am aware of the post at the beginning of the Forum explaining the information from Microsoft about DCOM errors being the norm but the MS fix doesn't include the CLSID or APPID of what I am seeing. Any clues to what I can do next to resolve the problem.
Thanks

:)

DistributedCOM Error event ID 10016

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

I understand that you are getting an error “DistributedCOM 10016” in the event viewer logs.

• Do you face any issues on the computer?
  
• Have you made any recent changes to the computer?

This problem may occur if either of the following conditions is true:

• A program with the class ID (CLSID) that appears in the message tries to start the COM component by using the DCOM infrastructure. However, the user does not have the required permissions to start the COM component.

• The Network Service account does not have the correct permissions.

Event logs are special files that record significant events on your computer, such as when a user logs on to the computer or when a program encounters an error. Whenever these types of events occur, Windows records the event in
an event log that you can read by using Event Viewer. Advanced users might find the details in event logs helpful when troubleshooting problems with Windows and other programs.

If you do not have any issues with app or any other program I would suggest you to ignore it.

Keep us posted if you face any issues related to Windows in future. We will be glad to help you.
