This issue seems to only happen when the user account is set to 
Administrator.

After testing with the account set to a "Standard User" the issue went away.

To reproduce, go to Control Panel>User Accounts>Change your account 
type>Administrator and then restart the machine.

It seems very backward that an Administrator account would have "Access 
Denied", and a standard account would work just fine.

Best regards,
