Windows 10: Loss of folder permissions after automatic update on 6/9/2020

My computer was automatically updated on 6/9/2020. I did not use the computer until the next day when I tried to start Outlook. After trying several solutions I reinstalled the Office360 suite. Next, I tried to run some other programs and found that both the Program Files and the Program Files86 folders were lacking permissions for both System and Administrator. The system will not let me add settings for these accounts. I restored the computer to its state before the application of the upgrade but nothing changes.
