Using Antiforgery in ASP.NET Core and got error - the antiforgery token could not be decrypted

Question

My ASP.Net Core MVC application have added Antiforgery middleware like below:

services.AddMvc();
services.Ad         


        

Answer 1

What worked for me was using a new user account instead of NETWORK SERVICE as the error message included this:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile' is denied.
