And if you double click it?

Hello again,

Sorry, just to chip in. From your last respond and actually from your first post it already hinted that, your problem is that you, somehow, seem do not have full ownership of files & Folders in Windows 10. Something went wrong when you reinstall Windows 10. The problem not really from Start10 since you also get the same result went you double click directly on the file itself.

I suggest try some solution on "Taking ownership of Files & Folders in Windows 10" available on the net.

Here one : https://www.thewindowsclub.com/take-ownership-windows-8

Try it. Hope it help.

Thank you,

That something I can't answer. Looking at some comments from microsoft forum from people with similar issues as yours.

What version of Windows 10 are you running - is it a pre-release one (and early ring)?

I have the same issue on Windows Home ver after the last update.

Called Windows Update and they had me run DSIM ,,, RestoreHealth @ Admin then SFScannow - no change.

It seams that Searching for Windows Update under the "Old Win7" links causes the permission problem for Settings and Advanced Settings Links.

I can now only get to the (Pitiful) Windows Update Settings by going thru the Win10 Menu 

My main associated problem (not StarDoc) is those idiots at Microsoft still think it is OK to REBOOT my machine without the Users Permission.

Hello,

I have forwarded your report to our Development Team for their review and recommendations.

I cannot, however, provide a timeline for a response or resolution. You will be notified when one is available.

We really do appreciate your feedback, thanks.

Thanks Intrepid-LI for sharing this. I missed it on TF somehow. I've got the same issue with lots of built-in MS tools. Typing their names into the search box produced the "cannot access the specified device, path or file" error. But navigating in through the UI or using the command line works just fine. For example "reli" normally calls up Reliability Monitor, but instead provokes the error msg. If I type "perfmon /reli" or go through Security & Maintenance, it opens just fine. Odd!

Thanks again for sharing this. Hope the Stardock guys get it switched over to the new URIs soon.

I would not go that far....

That said, and to expand on Intrepid's informative post, for the OP, you can drop this (unzipped) shortcut into:

C:\Users\turk\Start10Ctrlpnl\

https://cdn.stardock.us/support/uploads/Turk%20Win%20Update.zip

Type 'Truk' or 'Update' into a Start10 search and it should show and work.

The naming is up to you, of course.

Wow! I was starting to think I had done something to cause these problems. I will be looking forward to Stardock's official fix. These bookmarks are kinda annoying that they ask if it is ok to open them each time. But still awesome find Intrepid-Li!

That should not happen... You may want to ensure that your UAC is not set to high:

The ironic thing is that this workaround simply re-enables one to get to arguably useless Win 10 Update Options. Now here's an Opportunity for Start 10 differentiation!

It would really be great if Stardock came up with a clickable Option in Start 10 to show the much more useful Windows 7 Update options. and since MS has only the impotent Win 10 code  - Have for ex the Option to temporarily Turn Off Windows Update (with the Registry edits - Save; disable the relevant keys) so we could stop Windows from Forcing an Update (like we used to -- say waiting a few weeks or a Month until it is reliable) and especially Stop Windows from automatically Rebooting our machines after their Forced Updates. 

Thanks Sean

Sweet including chking for admin rights - and shorter than the Save / Restore I do with the registry.
