What is trustedinstaller and how to disable it. Method solving the problem

Delete folders - simple taskWith which even a beginner user can cope. However, when deleting some files and folders, the system can issue a warning that to perform this operation you need to request permission from TrustedInstaller or administrator. This is due to the fact that some system folders are protected by the administrator. Their removal is undesirable, as it can cause a failure in the work of some applications and even a whole system.

Method solving the problem

Error: Request the resolution from TrustedInstaller may occur not only when deleting a folder or file, but also during its change. Therefore, the essence this method Fixing problems will be reduced to make the owner of the folder or user file of the computer. For this it is worth performing several simple actions:

• Select the desired folder. Click on it right-click and select "Properties".

• A new window will open. Go to the "Security" tab and click "Advanced".

• The "Advanced Security Parameters" window will appear. It is worth paying attention to the "Owner" tab. Since the folder is protected, its owner will be "administrator / user group" or "TrustedInstaller". In this tab, click "Change".

• A window will appear. In it, click on the "Other users or groups ..." button.

• In the next click Click "Optional".

• Here you need to search for an account for which you need to provide the owner's rights. To do this, click "Search", select the account and click "OK".

• So you get the rights to the folder. But now you need to get the right to edit. To do this, you need to return to the "Advanced Security Settings" window. Here there must be the item "Elements of Extensions". We look at the position "Access" and exhibit " Full access».
• If the "Extension Elements" buttons are not, it is necessary to go to the "Extension" tab. We put the "full access" mark and click "OK".

• Check the rights.

IMPORTANT, in Windows 8 and above, some steps to provide access differ. Therefore, we recommend looking carefully what actions you perform.

About how to become the owner of the folder in Windows 10 and get full of right on it. Watch in the video:

Windows 10 users and previous versions When you try to make changes to files face the problem. A notification appears on the screen: "You need permission to perform this operation. Request permission from "TrustedInstaller" to change this file. " What it is - trustedinstaller and how to get this "resolution" I will describe in this article.

What it is?

TrustedInstaller is a Windows service to install modules that works on windows technology Resource Protection. Also, the service is responsible for the security of access to system files. In fact, users are faced with it only when you try to delete, change and read files and folders in the system to which you want to access. The TrustedInstaller service puts itself in the role of the "folder owner" and selects the rights of the system administrators, thereby forming protection from external influence.

Users also face TrustedInstaller.exe - This is an executable file-process that is responsible for updates. windows components. It can load the system when available updates are collected.

How to disable service?

In order to gain access to the desired folder And bypass system protection, it is necessary to endow the rights of access of the current administrator (become the owner by turning off the trustedinstaller rights). To do this, perform a few simple operations:

1. Press PCM by folder and select "Properties". Tab "Security" - click "Advanced".
   
2. In the "Advanced Security Settings" window, opposite the "Owner" item, click "Change".
   
3. In the window that opens, click "Advanced".
   
4. In this window, click "Search".
5. Select the owner (your administrator profile) and click OK.
6. In the following window, confirm the selection.
   
7. To change the owner of the contents of the directory, check the box opposite "Replace the owner of the subspeteers and objects" and click OK.
   
8. Wait for a while, until the changes come into force (if there are a lot of files and folders in the folder).
   

The service is successfully disabled, but in order to interact with the folder, you need to get around another protection. Although I became the owner of the folder, delete or change its contents I can not. When you delete a file, you need to request permission from yourself.

To do this, we will assign the owner of the folder to the administrator profile:

1. Go to the "Properties" of the folder → Security tab and click "Advanced".
2. See if there is your profile in the "Permissions" list. If not, click "Add".
   
3. In the window that opens, click "Select Subject". Use the search and select your profile. Check the box opposite "full access" and confirm the changes by clicking OK.
   
4. Now put a tick "Replace all records of permissions subsidiary Inheritable from this object "and click" OK ". In the security window that opens, we also press two times "yes."
   
5. Wait for a while to change the changes.
   

Now you can delete or change files without obstacles. The only protection against file changes or folder may be the read-only point.

Important! Do not change / delete system folders and files. This can lead to unstable system operation. Before work S. system files Make a Windows Recovery Point.

How to enable the service back?

Return is made in the same order, only for the user "TrustedInstaller", but with some nuance:

1. We go to the "Properties" of the folder → The Safety Tab → Advanced. Click "Edit" opposite the "Owner" item.
   
2. In the window that opens in the "Enter the names of the selected objects" field, enter NT Service \\ trustedinstaller

   and click "Check Names".

You want to delete any outdated or unnecessary system folder, but get a message that you need to get a resolution from TrustedInstaller? The reason is in the absence of rights to change the folder (even for the administrator account). With this problem, many have come across Windows 7, but today it will be about Windows 8. Let's deal with how to receive full control over the folders ...

So, I will show an example of removing the unnecessary Windows folder, which remained after reinstalling operating system. When you try to delete the folder, this is the message.

First, make sure that the administrator account logs. Otherwise, you will not be able to make some changes to the settings. Click right-click on this folder and select the item " Properties". In the parameters window, go to the "tab" Safety"And press the button" Additionally«.

Window opens Additional security settings". From above indicated who is the owner of the folder (TrustedInstaller), click on the link " Change«.

In the previous window you will see that the owner has changed. Just below, install a tick at the point " Replace the owner of subspeters and objects", And then click the button" Apply«.

We are waiting for a couple of minutes until all files are processed.

If any messages pop up, always press " Yes«.

All, you are the owner of the main folder and all the objects of it. Press OK.

Now we get full control over this folder. To do this in the list " Elements permissions»Select your account and click" Change«.

Install permissions:

• A type - Allow
• It applies to - for this folder, its subfolders and files
• General permissions - full access, change, read and execution, list of contents folder, reading, recording

And click " OK«.

Just in case, repeat this action for all accounts with your name (or in general in the list). Also include inheritance and check the checkbox at the point " Replace all records of the subsidiary permissions inherited from this object.". And confirm all changes by clicking " Apply«.

The system will ask: "Do you want to continue?" Boldly press " Yes«!

Again, we wait until all files proceed (2-3 minutes).

Close properties and try to delete the Windows folder (to which permissions received).

Yes, everything is great. The folder is completely removed and no longer takes place on the hard disk!

You want it or not, there are situations where the Windows 7 operating system (and above) tries to use the so-called trustedinstaller. What is this component in Windows systems, now and see.

Standard translation

Trusted translated from English or American means "trust". But it is found and many users know in the form, because the fact is that in the installation process itself distribution third-party program May request rights to install. From here - problems.

It seems to be translated as "trust", and Installer is as a "installer", nevertheless, the installer program is subject to viruses and malicious codes. And, by the way, the application itself is capable of producing requests at its level, considering their active viral codes.

History of application

TrustedInstaller protection service was first applied to windows system 7. She was responsible for editing system files and system settings.

In fact, any user faces a message "Request a TrustedInstaller permission" only in one case - when you try to edit the system configuration without an access rights at the administrator level.

What is it really?

The saddest thing is that the "seven" provides for the existence of two admins. The fact that the local user or the PC owner has administrator privileges, does not mean anything (even if there is a Microsoft account).

As it turns out, the default system is activated by the record of the so-called "Superministor". We noticed that some processes have to be launched on behalf of the admin using the right clicking menu?

Why it was necessary, probably, it is clear: the developers thus tried to protect the system, however, leaving the user the ability to edit the access rights.

TrustedInstaller: How to delete or disable this component?

To disable this service, you can use the standard system configurator, access to which is carried out in the control panel. But there is not a section of programs, but the component menu.

If you calculate that the trustedinstaller.exe executable file is located in the system folder owned by the operating system, any attempts to remove it will be reduced to zero. The system simply will not allow this to do.

Let's see what needs to be done to remove the TrustedInstaller component. Windows 7 in this regard is a rather "pragmatic" system, despite its capabilities.

The use of the rights of Superadmin many users simply pushed. Indeed, because the launch of even the installer of any program at the system for some reason causes doubts, although in fact the program can have a SSL certificate and a digital signature.

In this regard, the TrustedInstaller Windows 7 module clearly loses. The most important problem is that the system itself requires a confirmation of the account, although, as approved by the corporation employees, this is not necessary (this is the generally accepted rule for the tenth version).

Anncker application

In addition, if someone noticed, in Windows 7 in context menu There is a special Unlocker service that allows you to unlock system processes. But it is present only in limited modifications of the system itself.

In addition, according to the Microsoft specialists themselves, this official utility is not in the main release. Therefore, it is worth thinking about the question of her presence in "Seven". In principle, shattered in the topic "TrustedInstaller: What is it?", You can put a point if it were not for one but.

Naturally, you can install a third-party component-unlocker. The issue price is the security of the system as a whole. If the user is tired of receiving messages like "Request a permission from TrustedInstaller" to change the system configuration or a specific file, when unlocking basic functions and capabilities, you can encounter a plurality of things that can harm the system. In particular, it concerns incorrect loading file size, free space reservation to save copies of the system and hard disk etc.

Direct shutdown is made deactivation windows services Resource Protection. For example, for the TERMSRV.DLL system library, you need to apply the right click on the file, and then use the properties and security menu. Next, the most important thing is: in a new window, instead of the "trust" TrustInstaller, select administrators and apply changes. Next, in the administrators group simply put the ticks opposite all existing permissions, then press the "OK" button.

Outcome

Instead of the afterword it is worth viewing on the other hand to the TrustInstaller module. What it is, it seems, it is already clear. The use of it in the "seven" is better to turn off (for nothing good activation will not lead).

In this case, the issues of deactivation of the Supermine account were not considered. This is a separate topic that has a solution in terms of using the system registry keys. But the understanding of the work itself should exist.

If you give tips on installing the seventh windows version, It should be clarified: never use repacks or unofficial distributions! They may contain not only viruses, but also the modified components of the system itself, which can lead to the complete inoperability of the laptop or stationary computer terminal.

Then no program-optimizer will help. By the way, it was in Windows 7 that such a problem originally arose. By installing the "dozen" and disabling the relevant service, you can get rid of it. Even editing the autorun command MSCONFIG in the Start menu (Win + R) is suitable if this is present in the list.

Otherwise, it remains to say that the installation of the "left" version of Windows can only lead to the fact that even "iron" components will fly, so it is better not to risk.

And one more look at TrustedInstaller. What it is already understandable, but if the request for confirmation of the operation is still present, it is necessary to deactivate the Uzperadmin account in or in system Registry, so that the permanent launch of programs and applications on behalf of the administrator can be specified. But be prepared and to the fact that when the system is disconnected, the system may request a password after rebooting and re-entering. If you do not remember it, it is better not to risk and leave everything as it is.

Otherwise it is impossible to even enter the system under its accounting Or when entering a valid password. Unfortunately, such cases have already happened. Microsoft experts such situations prefer not to comment even in the case of official appeals. Yes, and the seventh version of Windows, many of our users are pirated.

With the release of the seventh version of Windows, absolutely all users have encountered a problem when the system does not allow you to edit, view or perform other actions with some files and folders, reporting that this requires you to get permission from TrustedInstaller Windows 7. What is this service, how to turn it off And make manipulations with protected files, see below. So, proceed.

TrustedInstaller Windows 7 - What is it?

The component itself first appeared in Windows 7, after which he swallowed in the eighth, and in the tenth modification, therefore the proposed solutions can equally apply to them. But to start, let's stop at the service itself? In the simplest understanding of TrustedInstaller, a certain virtual user who "selects" rights from ordinary users and administrators to unauthorized interference in the structure of system files, without giving random or intentional changes affecting the stability of the OS.

The service operates based on WRP technology (Windows Resource Protection), protecting system directories, DACLS and ACL folders, registry keys and related files from making changes even at the level of administrator's rights.

That is why when you try to access and a warning appears that the file or directory is not protected to understand if you contact the security policies. Roughly speaking, this is the component of the self-defense of the operating system, which is a preventive means of preserving performance when an intervention is attempted. However, despite all the limitations, it is possible to get around such a blocking is quite simple. About this later.

Why does the service consume too many system resources?

Many users complain that the TrustedInstaller service ships the processor to an inanimate degree, making it difficult to perform user processes.

Yes, indeed, the load on system resources for the active process of TrustedInstaller can be observed. As a rule, these are two situations: windows Update and viral infection.

If the user in the "Task Manager" sees that TrustedInstaller loads the processor too much, to begin with, you should try to complete this process, after which it is possible to make a deep check of the system for viruses, malicious codes and any other threats. To do this, it is best to use an anti-virus package that is not installed in the system, but independent portable utilities like Dr. Web Cure IT! or virus Removal Tool. "Kaspersky Lab".

The optimal solution will be the inspection using disk utilities Rescue Disk who have their own graphic interfaceAnd downloading the check module is performed before the start of the operating system.

In the second case, in order to avoid high load on system resources, you can simply disable the automatic update of the system in the "Update Center". As far as it is advisable, decide for yourself.

The location of the component

Now let's look at the TrustedInstaller software component itself. Where is this service? Standard location - system folder Windows in which there is a SERVICING directory.

There is a trustedinstaller.exe file and is executable component Services often run it manually, change or make any other actions with it will not work. It has protection against removal and substitution.

TrustedInstaller: How to turn off the service?

Now directly about the disconnection of this component. We proceed from the fact that the user understands all the consequences of the deactivation of the TrustedInstaller service. How to turn it off? The whole process comes down to get absolutely all the right to change the files and folders.

So, choosing the desired file., I call and go to the properties string, where in the new window on the security tab click the "Advanced" button.

In the next window we use extra options And go to the owner's tab, where we use a change with TrustedInstaller to the administrator group. Confirm the changes by pressing the "OK" button. In the pop-up message, we do the same.

It's only half of the case deactivation trustedinstaller. How to disable the service for specific file. Fully, it will be understood at the next stage. To do this, return to the properties window and on the Security tab by selecting a group of administrators, click the "Change" button.

In the permissions window, we put the tick on all items present in the list, and confirm the changes. Everything necessary rights Received. Accordingly, after that, the file can be deleted, move, copy or even change its contents.

How appropriate is shutdown?

Finally, another important point associated with the TrustedInstaller Windows 7 service. What it is already understandable how to deactivate the component too. Naturally, a natural question arises: is it worth doing this?

By and large, the user who never appeals to system files, there is no meaning to deal with such procedures. At best, you can only turn off automatic update Systems so that TrustedInstaller does not load resources.

But when the computer is installed on the computer softwareWho needs to be accessed by changing system files and configurations, here and comes to understand the specifics of the TrustedInstaller Windows 7 module. What is it? The permissive system, without obtaining the right of which the program simply does not work.

Instead of the result

Finally, it can be noted that the TrustedInstaller component itself is usually custom files Or does not block applications. Its main goal - protection system components. So there is no particular sense in the deactivation of the process. However, the load on the system is short-term (only for the period of installation of the system update packages). In most cases, it will take a maximum of 5-10 minutes depending on the configuration and connectivity speed. So you can suffer.

As for permissions for the installed software, it is necessary to be extremely careful and to know exactly that the provision of rights to perform any actions with system files will not cause any damage. Among other things, viruses affecting this component are very often disguised as the original service and even have the same name with it in the process tree displayed in the Task Manager. But to determine the viral process can be completely elementary in the absence of a description or signature of the publisher, especially if there are several of them. But this is a big rarity. If there is enough powerful antivirus software at the input of infection, you can not be afraid. And the component itself has strong enough protection.
