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}

    I spent a few days looking at this and as stated in other comments; Microsoft says it's not an issue, other people say it is, but I'm not going to perform the 15-18 steps to fix this stupid thing and screw something else up.  I pretty much did everything advised for this issue and quite frankly, I'm putting it to bed. 

    I was getting the 10016 error event on Day 1 when I got this computer new 3-4 months ago,  but not as many in occurrence since the 1809 update.  For me the issue is performance when logging in at times (slower) and hiccups in performances overall (pauses from 5 to 8 seconds, sometimes little longer), can't do anything - freezes. I can move the mouse cursor but not doing anything else. I can go few days and nothing happens. There is no corresponding event in the log at the time it happens too.  As it is, my Bluetooth mouse was disabled immediately after this 1809 install and took 3 hours to get it resolved on my own.  The latest install update has bugs in it and it's not a 100%. 

    I got sick of looking at these 10016 event errors in the log and put a XML filter under Event Viewer Customs; here it is and works good; 

    <QueryList>

      <Query Id="0" Path="System">

        <Select Path="System">*</Select>

        <Suppress Path="System">

          *[System[(EventID=10016)]]

          and

          *[EventData[

    (

              Data[@Name='param4'] and Data='{2593F8B9-4EAF-457C-B68A-50F6B8EA6B54}' and

              Data[@Name='param5'] and Data='{15C20B67-12E7-4BB6-92BB-7AFF07997402}'

            ) 

            or 

            (

              Data[@Name='param4'] and Data='{6B3B8D23-FA8D-40B9-8DBD-B950333E2C52}' and

              Data[@Name='param5'] and Data='{4839DDB7-58C2-48F5-8283-E1D1807D0D7D}'

            ) 

          ]]

        </Suppress>

      </Query>

    </QueryList>

    Hi my computer restarts every time i load certain games up on my PC. Modern gaming build and only happens under certain titles.

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

    Windows.SecurityCenter.WscCloudBackupProvider

     and APPID 

    Unavailable

     to the user DESKTOP-KH758VE\jarre SID (S-1-5-21-1766856309-369776360-2247513701-1001) 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.

    No idea whats going on.
