This is the issue on GitHub, third case; you’ve already attempted all the suggested fixes, but it’s still worth sharing,

bug
**1. "Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied."
2. "Set… tings file not found!" (AppData)
3. "Source file not found!" (fxsound1.cab in AppData \ Roaming)
4. "Invalid digital signature." (fxsound1.cab in AppData \ Roaming)**

**1. Installation fails and the error "Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied." appears**
Description:
"Error Applying Security
An error occurred while applying security information to:
C: \ ProgramData \ FxSound
Failed to enumerate objects in the container. Access is denied."

Possible cause(s):
Elaboration by @bvijay74:
This error means that the user account does not have any access permission to the folder C: \ProgramData\FxSound. The default settings are stored in C: \ProgramData\FxSound during installation and copied to %APPDATA%\FxSound for each user on application launch. So, the user launching the application should have permission to read settings from C: \ProgramData\FxSound.
Possible solution(s):
* Confirm if the logged-in user has permission to the required folder with the command "icacls"
* Log in with a different user account;
* Change the folder permissions;
* Uncheck Read-only under Properties > Attributes;
* Run FxSound as Administrator.

**2. Installation seems successful, but launch fails and the error "Settings file not found!" appears (AppData)**

https://forum.fxsound.com/t/settings-file-not-found-when-trying-to-launch-fxsound/1542
Possible cause(s):
The absence of permission to access the AppData folder.
Possible solution(s):
* Confirm if the logged-in user has permission to the required folder with the command "icacls"
* Change the folder permissions;
* Copy the file manually - elaboration by @bvijay74:
Check if the file FxSound.settings file is present in the %APPDATA%\FxSound directory. FxSound installation should normally create the defaults settings file in this directory. If the file is not created due to any permission issue, then you can copy FxSound.settings from %PROGRAMDATA%\FxSound to %APPDATA%\FxSound.
* Run FxSound as Administrator - elaboration by @bvijay74:
If the FxSound.settings file is not present in %APPDATA%\FxSound, then upon FxSound launch the file gets created. User will get the error only if FxSound does not have the permission to create the file. So, running FxSound as an Administrator is another option to overcome the issue. Subsequent launches can be as standard user, but the settings changes will not get saved. Application launch error can be avoided this way and this does not require any manual changes to the settings file.

Possible cause(s):
Usually on old versions of Windows (7, XP) with outdated root certificates. If the root certificates are out of date, then there may be problems checking the valid digital signatures of files.
Possible solution(s):
* Update certificates or system;
* Install from the [Microsoft Store](https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/fxsound/XP8JK4TBQ03LZ4);
* Solution shared by @bvijay74:
Extract the installer by running fxsound_setup.exe /extract
Once the files are extracted, you can verify the cab file signature by running
signtool verify /pa fxsound1.cab
Then run fxsound.x64.msi on 64 bit systems or fxsound.msi on 32 bit systems, to install FxSound.

Description:
"A file that is required cannot be installed because the cabinet file [...]fxsound1.cab has an invalid digital signature. This may indicate that the cabinet file is corrupt."

Hi @m3n3v3r signtool verify /v /pa fxsound1.cab
You can extract the installer components in fxsound_setup.exe by running fxsound_setup.exe /extract
If you are facing issues when installing through fxsound_setup.exe, you can run fxsound.x64.msi to install FxSound on 64-bit Windows. If there is any error which prompts you to find fxsound1.cab, you can select the fxsound1.cab that you have extracted.

Dear @bvijay
I can’t update the new version of FXSound + can’t delete current one.
I followed your topic to extract this file: fxsound.x64,msi, but I couldn’t find the extract option.
could you tell me exactly how to extract this file name (fxsound.x64,msi) from install app name (FXsound_setup.exe) because I can’t find this option?
