Default services.msc Access Is Denied

Windows XP with service pack 3. All the latest updates. When I click Start -
Run - SERVICES.MSC I get the message above. The same message appears for any
other .MSC pogram. I can access the MANAGE option in the properties on MY
COMPUTER to manage the PC. How do I fix this fault ? Thanks for any replies.

I also faced the same issue and found this on computing.net (posted by bono)

I ran into the same issue and fixed the problem by re-associating .msc files
with the Microsoft Management Console (mmc.exe). Navigate to the
C:\Windows\System32 folder and right-click the eventvwr.msc file (or any .msc
file). Choose 'Open With'. If you see the Microsoft Management Console listed
at the top of the next window, click on it to highlight. If you do not see
the Microsoft Management Console, click Browse, navigate to
C:\Windows\System32, and double-click the mmc.exe file. With the Microsoft
Management Console or mmc highlighted in the Open With box, check the box for
'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file'. Click OK and see
if the issue is resolved.
