Event ID 10016, DistributedCOM

Every time the PC starts I have the following error.

Log Name: System
Source: Microsoft-Windows-DistributedCOM
Date: 25/05/2018 07:35:47
Event ID: 10016
Task Category: None
Level: Error
Keywords: Classic
User: Home-PC\User
Computer: Home-PC
Description:
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820}
and APPID
{8BC3F05E-D86B-11D0-A075-00C04FB68820}
to the user Home-PC\User SID (S-1-5-21-4023029420-2456169105-2834210191-1002) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in

SID (S-1-15-2-350187224-1905355452-1037786396-3028148496-2624191407-3283318427-1255436723).
This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

I have tried all the usual fixes including added Local to my user name in the Security settings for Windows Management & Instrumentation but the error still occurs.

I am aware of the post at the beginning of the Forum explaining the information from Microsoft about DCOM errors being the norm but the MS fix doesn't include the CLSID or APPID of what I am seeing. Any clues to what I can do next to resolve the problem.
Thanks

HI ddelo,

Thank you for taking the time to respond.
I downloaded the dcomperm zip file and power run and unzipped them both. When I click on the exe file for dcomperf it opens a window and gives all the options. Click on the exe for power run and I have the screen as per their website .I then added the dcomperf entry into power run. However, when I open the command prompt in power run to add the code that you show, the response is that the software doesn't recognise the DCOM element. Can you confirm what entry in the command prompt I should be adding your code to as when I activate the command prompt in power run, the text in the command window shows the path to power run. I presume I should change this. Is it just a question of editing the command prompt? Or am I not doing something correctly?

Thanks

Hi Ed,

I note your comments re OCD.

I am not a professional and I am one of the unfortunate people who upgraded a working Windows 7 PC to Windows 10 and have regretted it ever since. I have had to deal with numerous problems and use forums like this to help resolve any issues that occurred. In fact the only issue I now have is this DCOM error.

I recently upgraded to Version 1803 build 17134-48 and that was another big mistake. The upgrade appeared to run its normal course. The next day, the first user logged on fine but then other users passwords were deemed to be incorrect. The only way to overcome this was the restart, which cured that problem. However, the day after the PC totally failed to load beyond one of MS Windows pictures - no prompt for user or password. Restarts failed totally. The only way out that worked was to revert to the previous version (1709). Reading forums I understand that there is a newer version available but they all said that you should try to correct any existing problems you have before attempting another upgrade. Hence the request here for help.

Am I suffering from OCD, I don't think so, I am just cautious of what MS is now producing and wary of doing anything that I cannot get out of. Because I don't fully know what the DCOM error I posted here is saying and how it effects the operation of the computer, I thought I would ask for help. It is ok for MS to say there is no need to worry as it happens a lot but if you took your car to a garage with what you thought was a serious problem, and a mechanic said don't worry they all do that, you wouldn't be a happy Bunny!

I’m facing exactly the same problem (since about three weeks ago) but with one additional ‘feature’: the event is triggered off once every four hours. Assuming, for example, the event occurs at 03.00 PM, turning OFF the PC and turning it ON again two hours later (for example) doesn’t trigger the event; it’s going to be automatically triggered off again at 07.00 PM.
Turning OFF the PC and turning it ON again, not two hours later but at 07.00 PM or later instead, triggers the event immediately.
I’ve tried different methods (including the ones mentioned here) in order to get rid of this event without any success. Virus or malware seems to be out of question (I couldn’t detect the existence of any virus, malware, etc.).

Hi ddelo,

Thank you for the additional information. I have tried it a number of times and on each occasion I see the response:-

INVALID LEVEL argument
Syntax: dcomperm <option> [...]

This happens when I either copy your code line or type it in copying your info. Looking at the options in dcomperf the format looks correct. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
