Windows 10 Could Break If Capability SIDs Are Removed From Permissions

Microsoft issued a warning yesterday that removing Windows account security identifiers (SIDS) that do not have a “friendly”” name from security permissions could cause problems in Windows and installed applications. Microsoft introduced a new type of security identifier called capability SIDs that grants a Windows component or UWP app access to particular resources on a computer. Removing a capability SID from file system permissions may cause a feature or application to function incorrectly. This is because removing the SID could cause the application or Windows feature to no longer have access to a resource it requires to properly run.”
