First, open 'File Explorer' on your computer, navigate to the C drive, and then choose the 'Windows' folder. From there, go to the 'System32' folder and look for a file named 'LicensingUI.' This is the file we need to rename in order to solve the problem. As this file is restricted, you can’t simply rename it. However, before we do that, we need to grant ourselves Admin access to this file.
To grant Admin access, right-click on the LicensingUI file name and choose 'Properties.' Next, move to the 'Security' tab and click on 'Advanced.' Here, tap on 'Change' next to the owner and choose 'Advanced.' Now, click on 'Find Now' to fetch the user accounts with Administrator access. From the search results, choose the Administrator account having two persons as an icon. Click on 'OK' and then choose 'OK' again. Finally, click on 'Apply' to save the settings and press 'OK.'
Now that you have Admin access, it's time to change the permissions from 'Read & Execute' to 'Full Control.' To do this, select the Admin account under 'Group or user names' and tap on 'Edit.' From the list, select the Administrator account and grant access to 'Full Control, Modify and Write.' Confirm these settings by clicking 'Apply' and close everything.
With the necessary permissions in place, you can now rename the LicensingUI file. Go ahead and change the file name to something else, and you'll find that it works without any issues.
