Recovery and escalation
Observed state
Capture cannot read the selected source and local activity reports LB-ERR:0x80070005.
Evidence
- Confirm the exact code, source identity, timestamp, and redacted receipt.
Safe steps
- Close active capture.
- Confirm the selected source still exists.
- Retry read-only verification once.
Recovery and escalation
- Return to the previous verified source.
- Keep the failed receipt unchanged for comparison.
Escalation: Export the redacted diagnostic receipt and contact support when the observed state remains.
Purpose
Diagnose an observed access-denied capture state without weakening Windows protections.
Next action
Confirm the exact error code and affected source in local activity, then close active capture before retrying safe verification.
Evidence
Match LB-ERR:0x80070005, ACL-WIN32, source identity, timestamp, and redacted diagnostic receipt.

Risks
Do not bypass access controls or security software. This guide does not provide a generic system-mutation recipe.
Compatibility
The state may occur on Windows 10 or Windows 11; source and permission boundaries can differ by build and policy.
Recovery
Return to the previous verified capture source. If the state remains, export the redacted receipt and escalate.
Technical detail
The resolver indexes full error-code punctuation so the exact observed state remains distinguishable.
