ColdFusion 2021 Auto-Lockdown Stuck

Lockdown tool is stuck on "Change Permissions of IIS Website: ... Input Logs".  It also messed up the permissions on server webroot.  Files are now missing an owner.  Any insight would be appreciated.

    Thank you.  Even though I was part of the Administrators group on the VM, I didn't run the lockdown tool as administrator and I also wasn't the owner of the folders.  Once I made those changes, it appeared to fix the issue.

    Something to try, to at least get things moving again:

    1. Stop the ColdFusion instance.
    2. Back up the files /lib/neo-security.bak and /lib/neo-security.xml on a location outside the ColdFusion server.
    3.  Delete the file /lib/neo-security.xml, and rename the file /lib/neo-security.bak to /lib/neo-security.xml.
    4.  Restart the ColdFusion instance.

    Does that help?
