[KB4549951 18362.778 broke Aeroglass]

On 5/16/2020 at 10:56 PM, netguru said:

Just in case anyone else has the issue, those DLL's cannot be change because they are read-only to everyone except Trusted Installer, even administrators cannot change them.   I downloaded a program PowerRun, it allows you to run a file browser (I use Directory Opus) as Trusted Installer and then you can rename the files and/or replace them.  Make a restore point first just in case.

Thanks,

Can i get a more detailed explanation?
