If I go into Component Services on my Windows 10 installation under DCOM Config I am seeing some strange entries which dont look right, where the application name is:
at the start of the list given by their path, rather than name
%SystemRoot%\system32\appwiz.cp
%SystemRoot%\System32\fveui.dll
... etc
rather than the application name being more meaningful such as
appwiz.cpl
APSDaemo
..etc
and after the XWizard Virtual Factory component there's a series of entries like
{000C101C-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
{01A39A4B-90E2-4EDF-8A1C-DD9E5F526568}
.....
if I go into the properties of these entries everything is greyed out and cannot be changed.
Does anyone else get this, or is this some corruption on my windows, and is there a way to fix the entries, or remove them if they are duplicates?
My windows 10 was an upgrade from Windows 7
