Windows 10: How to take ownership of system files via CMD?

Google failed me this, people mentioned using setacl/subinacl, but no idea, how to use it.
Running typical commands as admin does not work for system folders/files. Like those:

takeown /f "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender" /a /r /d y
icacls "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender" /grant Mikai:f /t /c
icacls "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender" /setowner "Mikai" /t /c

EDIT: Got it, better late than never. For the current user and for admins. *Smile

Code: takeown /s %computername% /u %username% /f "%SystemDrive%\Users\Public\Desktop" /r /d y icacls "%SystemDrive%\Users\Public\Desktop" /grant:r %username%OI)(CI)F /t /l /q /c takeown /f "%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows Defender" /a /r /d y icacls "%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows Defender" /inheritance:r /grant:r AdministratorsOI)(CI)F /t /l /q /c[/quote]
