Need administrator privileges to install the game

Cannot install game but I am the administrator and the only user on my laptop. After accepting the terms of use, it tells me that I need administrator privileges to install. Ive tried to create a new administrator with no luck. Any suggestions?

Try right click on the setup.exe from the game > run as admin.

See you soon.

  • Why the App Manager think I need administrator privileges to install updates?

    I am a subscriber of creative cloud, and when I opened apps (for example, Muse) I receive a message to install upgrades (or not). If I ask to install, I wonder for info login and password, which is then denied and I get an error message that I need administrator privileges. If the installation fails.

    I can sign in to this site using my login and password, so this isn't the problem. I can also open the application (without update), but these are listed as being time sensitive: only available until, for example, on 14 June. But there is no way for me to install these new versions. Help!

    This is where updates their files / registry keys. For example, install/update Flash Player DURATION has always access required admin life file in the operating system folder tree (on Windows, this is in system32/C:\windows\system32\macromed). Registry-Wise, Adobe put the keys in HKCU and HKLM - the latter is read-only for normal users.

    If you manage a network with the enterprise licensed software, there are tools for creative Cloud allowing a Manager to build packages for deployment to base installers and updates offline. If your users have copies of the retail of CC, is not an option and all must be managed on a basis by computer.

  • I am administrator still needs administrative privileges to a game? Didn't happen until 2 weeks ago.

    I'm the only account on my system using Win7 Home Premium and up to 2 weeks ago, I had no problem playing a game that I have enjoyed for years. Now, all of a sudden I can not open the game because I don't have administrator privileges, my account is an administrator account.

    I also have additional connection, one administrator called accounts and a computer ASP.NET account. None of them were created by me and even a full Win7 reinstall has not solved the problem. I can't remove the administrator account.

    Some say that an update of Windows is responsible for other accounts are corrupt.

    I want to know why I was stripped of administrator privileges that I appreciated until 2 weeks ago, I'm not the only one this happens too. Why administrator is now an account when connecting?

    With Windows, since 1995, but I'm more upset by this development.

    SUCCESS!

    I formatted the partition on my system using the installation of Win 7 disk, using the Advanced setting.
    I completely reinstalled my Windows 7 Home Premium.
    I have disabled the automatic updates of Windows.
    I installed my security software and then activated the Internet connection.
    I then installed all the drivers disc.
    I manually installed Directx.
    I installed browsers and home pages.
    I always kept off automatic Windows updates.
    I installed again all programs games that me were previously rejected due to no administrator privileges.

    Everything works, I don't have any warning of administrator privilege. There is no administrator account on connect.

    I can run my system with full administrator privileges and play the games I want to play.

    This lack of privilege to administrator and an administrator account sudden appearance are down to a Microsoft Windows Update, me was told by a specialist with 40 years of experience and more.
    All I've done is done manually.

  • Install the game: stuck on the "creating folders".

    When you try to install 'Freelance', the installation process stops on "create game records".  It creates 477 files to the desired location (I tried the Program Files X 86 Program Files, users/Public and root C: for locations) but do not go beyond this step.  I had successfully installed the game once on this PC, but uninstalled completely because it would not create a multiplayer account number.

    I took all instances of the game out of the registry, all known file location, record and rebooted after each step.  I then installed the full game on my server box to see if the CD has been the question, and it installed just fine.  No matter what, it will create the folders on this PC, but do not far away, even if run as administrator.

    I use Windows Vista business with SP1

    Meryck,
    It would be not as confusing if you did not have the game once installed successfully.  Knowing that, the only thing that makes sense is that there is something the surplus of the first plant, which is still on the system.  I was the other player looking for forums and found the multiplayer question everywhere and the fix for it.  But nobody seems to have a problem with installing the program on Vista.  Have you tried to restore the system to a point in time before you uninstalled the game?  When you clean the registry - did you do a search of all the values for the "freelance" Word and all derivatives of that?  I ran Freelancer on my computer at home once, years before and did a search of my book last night and found some registry keys still there, even if I uninstalled it at least four years ago.  There is something that remains the first installation which does not allow the game to complete the installation.  I will continue to seek an answer for you, in the meantime you can try things that I proposed here.  Have you removed records of registered parties - public and private?

    I would like to know if any of this helps.

    Thank you

  • FSX says I need administrator right to save the texture

    Hello microsoft,.

    I posted a question similar to this one before, got a response, but did not get specific answers. See, when I download the texture file and to copy them all, cut and paste, after all you're supposed to save the file and start FSX. But when I save the file, he denies and says I need administrator rights to save the file when I am the administrator of the computer. Please give me an answer to this and help. Thank you.

  • Trying to make a USB bootable via UltraISO, says I need administrator privileges

    I'm doing a usb bootable via ultraISO and it says you need administrator privileges. ? I am the administrator and the only user to use it... !!

    all solutions... ?

    You receive the error message is a little vague. You really need "elevated privileges" that are more that holds a user to the Administrators group. Restart ultraISO by the contextual element or the right click menu and select run as administrator. Provide credentials if necessary.
