    User permission setting problem on Win10


    Hi!
    I need some help about set permission rules for a user account on win10 in my network.

    Here are my questions:
    Is there any possibility to read out, or to show , export for later import any user credentials or access in win10?

    Our windows are deployed with MS AutoPilot and I have to install an old version of FireFox, the v3.0 but many times
    there is a problem to run the setup eve if I run it as admin.
    If FireFox installed and I run it, I get some error like "FireFox can not access to some path..." but not mentioned to which path.
    But there is a short description does they is maybe a problem to accessing the profile folder or the user has no access to it.
    This is not true.
    I tested several times to copy, rename, delete files in the FF profile folder, everything was done without error.
    I cant figure out which folders are restricted to access to my user account....

    If I install the FF under my admin account everything is ok.

    How can I find out lets say what permissions are enabled, disabled or access restrictions path are set for my user account which is a regular user account, not an admin account?

    Is it possible to restrict a user not to start an out-dated app or old app in windows 10 ?

    Any advice would be nice.

    Thank you.

    :)
     

  2. No permissions

    Hi,

    I would suggest you to right click on the user's folder for your profile and check if the permissions shows as "read only'. If this is the case, it might be causing the issue. In this case, I would suggest you to go to C:\User folder, right click on the
    folder with your username and follow these steps:

    • Open the properties of the main user profile folder where the files are located (such as Documents, Pictures, etc).
    • Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.
    • Check the box at the bottom of this window. It is labeled "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and then click Ok.
    This does a one-time action that replaces the security on all the files/subfolders. It’s one-time, so you won’t find that box checked if you peek at it later. Try these steps and let us know the results for further assistance.

    Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


    Hello,
    Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
    I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
    I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
    Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
    I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
    Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
