Windows 10: Pop-up window: requires elevation

Hi,


I tried to install/update a software on my computer, but the system asked me to enter user name and password. After I enter the details, there was a window pop-up says "the requested operation requires elevation". I tried to use cmd (run as administrator), but the same window pop up again.

I am the only user for this computer, but it seems like I am not the admin.


Appreciate if any of you can assist to solve the problem.

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!

7z Setup SFX require elevation

Hi,

The error “The requested operation requires elevation” when trying to launch
the 7z Setup SFX.exe indicates that you do
not have elevated privileges. This normally means that the installation EXE file has not been run as an administrator, which is different than logging into the computer as Administrator.

It seems you're running on a Windows Server. If so, they are supported via the

Microsoft TechNet. It is best posting your concern in their forum as well. Just click on the link below to get to their specific forum.
