I have mixed permissions on winodws 10 from trying to backup windows.old file and windows-bt. I added "Everyone" to the user names and groups list but there's a red icon on the administrator account with an X it has "special Permissions" I haven't found a single thing I couldn't do on the computer I was even able to update and play games on it.
