    installation requires administrative privileges

    All users on an AD do not have administrative rights.

    On most computers (windows 10, 7) when launching an application setup, I get a sign-in box that asks for the credentials of an administrator to proceed with the install.

    But on only a few windows 7 computers, when trying to install an application I get a pop-up indicating: installation requires administrative privileges and my only choice is a button ''Close''

    How can I change this to allow an administrator to sign in to proceed with the install?

    software install: Administrative Privileges Required

    Hi All,

    I just built a fresh Win10 machine. Its part of a windows domain which applies admin accounts.

    I've updated the machine, and allowed all group policies to apply. I have verified that my domain admin account is a local admin on the PC.

    When I try to install MS Office from a click-to-run installer, i get an error message with this title: Administrative Privileges Required

    what's strange is when I right-click on the installer and choose "run as administrator, I never get the UAC, but the same error message simply pops up.

    Any ideas what might be going on?

    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."
