| Notice that the permissions (ownership) of the profile are set when
| first used, and the default at time of install of the system was to have
| the profiles private. So, if later someone adjust the policies so that
| Administrators have a grant, but the account had been used before
| that time, they you would see the access denial. But, you also would
| see the new profile with grant to Administrators after you have done
| as you described, taking ownership and deleting (assuming the policy
| was adjusted to grant to Administrators).
| IOW you may be dealing with a historical artifact.
