Hi,
1. Yes, the Authenticated Users have the special permission on the system root. What’s the goal you want to achieve? You may
refer to the following similar thread to remove the Authenticated Users’ special permission on the system root.
Reference:
Authenticated Users have Create / Append permission on Root of C - can I remove them?
2. What’s your meaning of “the default permission of Desktop Icons”? The permission to modify or delete the Desktop
Icons? If so, please see the following similar thread:
Permission
to change / delete Desktop items
3. By default, an invitation automatically expires after six hours. To cancel an invitation sooner than that, close the Windows Remote
Assistance session that is waiting for an incoming connection.
But you may also set the maximum invitation time.
On the computer that you want someone to connect to, follow these steps:
a)   
Open System by clicking the
Start button, clicking
Control Panel, clicking
System.
b)   
Click
Remote settings and choose Remote tab.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
c)   
Select the
Allow Remote Assistance connections to this computer check box.
d)   
Click
Advanced, and then, under Invitations, select the time from the two lists.
