    How do I fix the "this operation requires further elevation" problem?


    So I got on to my computer and was confused as to why I could not open any programs that required Administrator access despite being the only account on the computer and it working the night before. I can not even open the command prompt as it just says, "this operation requires further elevation". All the fixes i saw online I was unable to do as I can not open any files that need to be run as Administrator. Please help me as I have no clue as to how to fix this.

    :)

    Windows 7 - The requested operation requires elevation

    • I know very little about computers and understand less.
    • I used Open Office (4.1.0) for ages without a problem, until for no discernable reason (that I could understand - I certainly didn't operate my PC any differently) I started to get the "requires elevation" message.
    • I started to use Libre Office. Again, I used this for a long time without issue, until one day recently I got the "elevation" message - again, not having done anything different.
    • After I changed to Libre Office, I used it to open Open Office documents. I am now using Word Pad to open Open Office and Libre Office docs, but it does not support everything, so the settings are sometimes off - out of alignment etc.
    • This PC is in my home. I am the only user and therefore I have the only Profile. I am the Administrator. As such I am bemused. Why does the PC that only I ever use think that I need a higher elevation? And a higher elevation than the Administrator??!!
    • If anyone has an answer or a suggestion as to what I can do to fix this, please bear in mind that I will need words of one syllable and VERY clear instructions! To be honest, I am not hopeful. I have seen numerous suggested answers in response to this error
      message, and so far they have not worked. That said, I have not seen my particular issue being raised.

    Good luck!
