    setacl itself can take ownership
    Code:
    setACL -on "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ADOVMPPackage" -ot reg -actn setowner -ownr "n:S-1-5-32-544;s:y" -rec yes
    setACL -on "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ADOVMPPackage" -ot reg -actn ace -ace "n:S-1-5-32-544;s:y;p:full" -rec yes
    
    then use the restore command

    Can the permissions be restored to original state once this change is done so it will appear that this was all done native/auto by windows and not be detectable?
    I'd like it be be as "vanilla" as possible in case in future they check permissions or something silly which reveals this was done and break updates etc.
    Do we even know what the original ones are to do this?

    When the DVD player is upgraded, is it done by Windows Update or by the Store?

    I'm wondering the same thing. Anyone know if there is a new version for Anniversary Update?

    I intalled the app, and then updated the system and didn't find, at least, any change on the app, there were a couple of updates for my system (installed from zero) but it seems to be the same lame, and simple app as ever

    Win 7/8.1 don't get AU as free upgrade, thus AU won't have new DVD player app

    It's working perfectly on both W10 14393 and Win server 2016.

    By perfectly I mean it's an useless square app just like on 10240 and 10586, but at least it enables the premium codecs which are useful on good applications, WMC first.

    The DVD Player offer ended with free upgrade program. KB3106246 works with the anniversary update but is not being installed by Windows Update.

    Do those of us that have the free version get the update, or it only for those that paid $14.99?

    It appears it's only for Windows Insiders who had paid for it for now.

    Code:
    Hello, Insiders! We are sending an update for the Windows DVD Player app to the Store today. This update will be available to Windows Insiders on the Fast ring who purchased the app through the Store. It includes fixes which address a lot of the feedback you’ve provided. We are planning to continue to update the app so please keep the feedback coming so that we can get this update out to production and plan for future updates.
