[QUOTE="notabot, post: 797362, member: 75970"] To apply Exploit Guard to store apps the path under c:\program files\WinowsApps (hidden folder) needs to become readable by the local administrator if the executables are to be referenced by full path. The reason I want to reference them by full path is Persistence of settings between windows updates To do that the local administrator must become the owner of the folder. The security tab doesn’t show me who is the current owner but in any case, if after I take ownership I don’t touch the permissions of the current owner, just give read access to local admin - does this break anything ? (I’d assume no but want to check ) Also, Is there any other way to write exploit Guard profiles without changing the ownership of that folder ? [/QUOTE]
