After reinstalling Minecraft Bedrock on my personal Windows 10 desktop PC last week, all files and folders within the com.mojang folder became inexplicably encrypted. The icons have a lock on them, and the "encrypt contents to secure data" button in advanced settings is checked and greyed out, with no way to deselect it. As a result, I'm unable to move/copy/paste/backup my worlds and other files.
When trying to move or copy/paste my world folders, I receive the error message "Your organization does not allow you to place this file here." Although this would seem like a Windows error, googling this error message returns results of other instances of users experiencing this specifically in relation to their Minecraft folders. (example: https://www.windowsphoneinfo.com/threads/your-organization-does-not-allow-you-to-place-this-file-here.771441/#Your_organization_does_not_allow_you_to_place_this_file_here)
No troubleshooting steps have worked for me. I can't uninstall/reinstall Minecraft as it will delete all my worlds, which is not an option. (For now, I can at least access them in-game.) All possible options to re-take ownership of the files and/or decrypt them don't work.
