Cacls Help - ccalby - 08-01-2011
I am trying to play a game on my laptop however it crashes whenever I right click to change game view. This is not a spec problem but a permissions problem.
I found this post
Quote:HERE IS THE FIX: You may have to take ownership of the files if windows stops you from deleting the file. Open CMD prompt and right click to run as administrator and then type in exactly as below substituting your windows login username where it says username:
takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\uiautomationcore.dll
cacls C:\Windows\System32\uiautomationcore.dll /G username:F
takeown /f C:\Windows\Syswow64\uiautomationcore.dll
cacls C:\Windows\Syswow64\uiautomationcore.dll /G username:F
Now you can just navigate to your syswow64 and system32 folders in windows explorer and after backing up the UIautomationcore.dll files just delete them from your computer. (Remember to delete the Uiatomationcore.dll file in ure FSX folder also if you installed it as the fix in other posts.)
However the problem is in the cacls commands. I enter my username (Conor Calby for my PC login) and get
Quote:C:\Windows\system32>cacls C:\Windows\System32\uiautomationcore.dll /G Conor Calby:F
Invalid arguments.
NOTE: Cacls is now deprecated, please use Icacls.
Any tips?
