Hello ladies and gents, first time poster.

Its my first time posting and just signed up as i normally can get all the help from these forums but this time im stuck.

The only error i get on my PC is the 10016 DistributedCOM and it annoys me (OCD) this is what it says in the general tab on the viewer -

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{8D8F4F83-3594-4F07-8369-FC3C3CAE4919}
and APPID
{F72671A9-012C-4725-9D2F-2A4D32D65169}
to the user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM SID (S-1-5-18) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.


now i will post a fix i found on the internet -

For me, the solution was provided by Greg310 in Dulwichdik's link as follows:

1. Open Regedit
2. Go to HKEY_Classes_Root\CLSID\{C2F03A33-21F5-47FA-B4BB-156362A2F239}
3. Right click on it then select permissions
4. Click Advance and change the owner to Administrators group. Also click the box that will appear below the owner line. ("Replace owner ...")
5. Apply full control

6. Go to HKEY_LocalMachine\Software\Classes\AppID\{316CDED5-E4AE-4B15-9113-7055D84DCC97}
7. Right click on it then select permission
8. Click Advance and change the owner to Administrators group
9. Click the box that will appear below the owner line
10. Click Apply and grant full control to the Administrators group

11. Go to Administrative tools
12. Open component services
13. Click Computer, click my computer, then click DCOM
14. Look for the corresponding service that appears on the error viewer [Immersive Shell]
15. Right click on it then click properties
16. Click security tab then click Add User. Add Local Service then apply
17. Tick the Activate local box
