Windows 10: Request advice in fixing a security error in Windows 10 .

Hello Everyone,
I tried to follow the instructions of this guide >> (How to Get Access to WindowsApps Folder in Windows 10: >> How to Get Access to WindowsApps Folder in Windows 10 )
I went through all the steps, but when I got to (step #9) where it says "open the “Select User or Group window and enter your administrator username and click on the button Check Names" .This action will automatically fill in the object name. Well that does not happen for me I keep getting a "An object (user, group, or built in security principal) with the following name>>MY NAME<< can not be found" error. Can anyone help me with this security issue?*Smile

:)

Hi Paul,

We've tried to go through the same process from the website you've provided and can't replicate the problem.

The object name should be your "Computer Name\Administrator name".

If your computer name is PC and administrator name is
Admin, the object name will be "PC\Admin".

Kindly try again with the information we provided.

Keep us updated and we will be glad to assist you further.

Take ownership of the folder and grant Administrators group rights to access/change it.
