RE: Access denied to local computer, even as ADMIN !! 2005-07-05 - By Ken Schaefer
Even when you are an administrator, ACLs (Access Control Lists) can be
configured to deny access to administrators. It's just that, by default,
administrators have access to most things. However, that doesn't stop the
default ACLs being modified.
As a general rule however, Administrators can take ownership of most
resources (which, in turn gives them permission to alter the ACLs, given them
access to the resource in question).
It seems that the Administrator account doesn't have permissions to keys in
the IIS metabase. You may need to reset the permissions on those keys.
Cheers
Ken
