    Installing with Elevated Privileges?


    I m running my laptop as a standalone system and I also have two accounts. One for Admin and for Local Standard User.

    My question is, even If I had set the UAC prompting level too the maximum level, will I still need to set the following Group Policy as from the image?

    :)

    Elevated Privileges

    I just installed a program and I can't open it because it says I need elevated privileges. This is a home computer and I am the administrator.

    Installing with Elevated Privileges?

    Never prompted to elevate privilege as administrator


    OK, I tried Dinesh's tutorial. First, here's a list of accounts for my machine:

    I held down Shift and rebooted, and got the WinRE splash screen. I was prompted to log in, with "Dan" my only option:

    If I clicked on "Don't see your account", I got this:

    Is it suggesting that "Dan" is an administrator account? Oh, that it were so... I went back, selected the "Dan" account, and it booted into command prompt. I then attempted the first of Dinesh's instructions:

    Hello darkness, my old friend... "Access Denied."
