You need to change the permissions on the files. This is from article
271865.

a. Right-click the MachineKeys folder.
b. Click Properties.
c. Click the Security tab.
d. Click Advanced.
e. Click the Owner tab.
f. Highlight the Administrators group to change the owner.
g. Select Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
h. Click OK.
