Lately I get this system error a lot now that I have upgraded to Windows 8 Pro is a DistributedCom Event ID 10016. Below is the error text:

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

{D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160}

and APPID

{9CA88EE3-ACB7-47C8-AFC4-AB702511C276}

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.

Anybody have any idea why I'm getting this error?

Same thing here. Greyed out. Windows 8.1 seems to fill the Event viewer with far more errors than previous versions.

edit: OK, found out why it was greyed out. There are 2 reg keys you have to set permissions to before you go to the DCOM Configuration in Component services. The CLSID key and the APPID key.

From another forum, although it applies to a different app, same principle:

*1. Open Regedit.2. Go to HKEY_Classes_Root\CLSID\*CLSID*.Note: *CLSID* stand for the ID that appears in your event viewer error. In your case, it's {C2F03A33-21F5-47FA-B4BB-156362A2F239}.3. Right click on it then select permission.4. Click Advance and change the owner to administrators. Also click the box that will appear below the owner line.5. Apply full control.6. Close the tab then go to HKEY_LocalMachine\Software\Classes\AppID\*APPID*.Note: *AppID* is the ID that appears in your event viewer. In your case it's {316CDED5-E4AE-4B15-9113-7055D84DCC97}.7. Right click on it then select permission.8. Click Advance and change the owner to administrators.9. Click the box that will appear below the owner line.10. Click Apply and grant full control to Administrators.11. Close all tabs and go to Administrative tool.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.15. Right click on it then click properties.16. Click security tab then click Add User. Add SYSTEM then apply.17. Tick the Activate local box.So use the relevant keys here and the DCOM Config should give you access to the greyed out areas:*CLSID:

{D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160}

and APPID

{9CA88EE3-ACB7-47C8-AFC4-AB702511C276}

    Windows 10 x64 (with fall update, 1511 b10586.3)

    as from: 14 onwards I got a bit puzzled.

    a) whilst being the in respective registry-keys it is worthwhile to note what is stated at (Default) Data, e.g. Immersive Shell

    this will be helpful at point (14)

    =

    =

    b) at (14)

    =

    =

    but then... at point (16)

    under tab 'Security' there are few options.

    =

    =

    Q: How to proceed here??

    thanks

    Glad I'm not the only one with this error on Windows 10. I'm not allowed change the permissions apparently Even when running as admin. It all came about for me after getting errors on Visual Studio 2015. Tried to reinstall it but the installer refuses to open anymore. Crashing instantaneously. If anyone has a workaround of the workaround for those who cant change the permissions that would be appreciated.

    I have the same error (Event ID: 10016, CLSID D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160) showing in event viewer after a CLEAN INSTALL OF WINDOWS 10.

    All windows 10 official MS updates have been installed. 

    This is ridiculous that another iteration of windows comes with an error straight out-of-the-box. Even more ridiculous that it has not been fixed with an update by devs yet. The end-user should not have to resort to registry editing to fix errors present directly after a clean OS install.

    Hi:

    Same problem as reported, no Apple app installed.

    Went through https://shauncassells.wordpress.com/2015/09/28/windows-10-event-10016-fix-the-application-specific-permission-settings-do-not-grant-local-activation-permission-for-the-com-server-application-with-clsid-d63b10c5-bb46-4990-a94f-e40b9d520160-and-a/ and it seemed to have worked (at least no side effects), but the event log is reporting errors again:

    "La configuración de permisos específico de la aplicación no concede el permiso Activación Local para la aplicación de servidor COM con CLSID 

    {D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160}

     y APPID 

    {9CA88EE3-ACB7-47C8-AFC4-AB702511C276}

     al usuario NT AUTHORITY\SERVICIO LOCAL con SID (S-1-5-19) en la dirección LocalHost (con LRPC) que se ejecuta en el contenedor de aplicaciones con SID No disponible (No disponible). Este permiso de seguridad se puede modificar mediante la herramienta administrativa Servicios de componentes."

    Double checked I changed ownership in the AppId and CLSID, as well as Runtimebroker DCOM. SYSTEM has got local activation and execution, local access, and total control on configuration on the Runtimebroker.
