Windows server 2012 R2 permissions on services get Access denied
Our new server is having security issues. I got a message that it couldn't be refreshed because event viewer service wasn't started. I tried to start it manually and got the attached error. I tried to change the log on permissions, but they are grayed out.

Which account are you logged in with? Is your own or a local Administrator account? You need local admin rights to start services.

domain Administrator.

already there. Also I just noticed I can't activate it either. I've tried several MAK keys we have.
Do you have any policy applied on this server?
Run gpresult /H gp.html and share the result.

it flashes very fast on the screen. I think it said access denied. I ran gpresult /r and it also will not display.
I have a strong feeling this install of Win 2012 is corrupt. We've activated it twice and now it states not activated

Still getting access denied after removing it from the domain and rebooting. Also all of the properties are unknown.

Microsoft wanted $499 to trouble shoot the Activation. I'm going to do a fresh installation of 2012 R2
