FIX error code 560

[Tecknomage]

I have a system that gets:

ERROR_NO_GUID_TRANSLATION 560 (0x230)

Indicates that an attempt was made to assign protection to a file system
file or directory and one of the SIDs in the security descriptor could not be
translated into a GUID that could be stored by the file system. This causes
the protection attempt to fail, which may cause a file creation attempt to
fail.

(from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681388(VS.85).aspx)

Of course the ref does not give details on how to fix the error.

Any suggestions/instructions?

Any mods or updates in the last few days ?.

If so, do a system restore to before that time.

You don`t say how long this has been happening.
Lots of info, always helps someone to help you.

This machine is not updated, must remain as original setup (DOD
security requirement). And the problem is on going for a long time.

It would like help if I had a concise definitions of SID & GUID.

I suspect the root cause has to do with the very special file access
security originally set (not done by me) and one application (which I
am not allowed to uninstall nor reinstall, and has no repair option).
