Active Directory domain Services – "You do not have permission to modify the group" followed by (Chinese or Japanese characters). Error message

Question

Folks:
I am having an issue with a system, which is throwing a really odd error message. When the user tries to modify the AD group, they receive the following error message:
“You do not have permission to modify the group”, which is then followed by what appears to be Chinese or Japanese characters. In addition, the characters
randomly change, which makes me believe the characters are ASCII values or equivalent, not specific values for any coherent words provided by installed language packages.
Has anyone seen this issue before? If so can you offer any advice?
Thank you.

Hi,
This issue can be caused due to the permissions under Security tab are modified incorrectly.
Please use delete control wizard to reassign the permissions or correct the permissions under Security tab manually.
