Hi,

In general, invalid permissions on directory will cause this error.

I recommend you performed the following action and check the result:

Granted the NT AUTHORITY\Network Service account Full Control permissions on the <drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\V15\FIP-FS\Data\Engines\amd64\Microsoft\bin directory.

Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Best regards,

I have the same error, i checked <drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\V15\FIP-FS\Data\Engines\amd64\Microsoft\bin directory, and network services already exist and have full control.

Same here, 2013 CU15 DAG member. Other DAG-members are okay - odd...

Edit: Replaced/repopulated the permissions on the FS\Data\Engines subfolders/Objects and now it Works.
