I was really surprised when I tried to open WindowsApps folder and got the message "you have been denied permission to access this folder". After some research I learned it is a protected windows folder.
Code:
The WindowsApps folder is a protected system folder located at C:\Program Files that contains all apps installed from the Microsoft Store, including pre-installed ones. It is not meant to be directly accessed or modified by users for security reasons, as it is owned by a special user account called TrustedInstaller and is sandboxed for protection. Attempting to access it will result in a permissions denial message
So that got me curious. Are there any other folders similar to WindowsApps where you have to change the ownership of a folder to view it?
