  • Installation failure: administrator privileges are required to install

    Hello

    I bought a license team to Adobe CC the other day for two seats. I added the two users, they have both accepted the license. They have both got the storage of 100 GB and Adobe Application Manager where they will be able to download the apps.

    Now, one of them could download them.

    But it is impossible. When the user clicks on 'install' in one of the applications, he receives a message saying ' Installation Failed: administrator privileges are required to install.» Please try again, or cancle, or install later. "We tried everthing all day without any solution.

    BTW, this user is the administrator too. So there must be more privileged than the other!

    We tried to remove him and add another email instead, the same problem occurs.

    We tried to install in another computer, same thing.

    We are sure that the license is for two users, as it is said: ""you bought 2 seats of your dealer. ".

    Please help us.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply, but it wasn't the cause of the problem.

    After many trials, I've figured out, the problem was caused by the Adobe Application Manager provided with the cloud, he has not worked with mac osx for some reason any.

    I uninstalled and then reinstalled manually from adobe.com and it worked like a charm!

  • Windows Vista does not work for all programs requiring administrator rights

    I have Windows Vista Business SP1 on a Dell XPS laptop. He worked from 3-4 years. It seems that after a recent update (in the last week), I rebooted the laptop and after that Vista can not run programs that require administrator privileges. This includes most of the items in the Panel, the observer of events, computer management, elevated command prompt and so on.

    After logging in, I get a notification of the task bar that says "Windows cannot connect to the customer service group policy."

    When I try to any program requiring administrative privileges (for example, msconfig), I get an error "Windows cannot find C:\Windows\system32\msconfig.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again"

    I restored the system (from safe mode) for a day where it seems to be ok, but the problem remains.

    The sound in the system tray icon is a trademark of the Red Cross on it, but sounds work ok.

    Analyses of virus through McAfee (all installed updates and latest virus definitions) showed no signs of the virus.

    As already mentioned in the original post, System Restore does not resolve the problem. I got to the new vista installation to fix the problem. Some windows updates and reboot after applying the update seems to be the cause.

  • Adobe Application Manager required administrator privileges

    Hello

    AAM does not, on the launch, it is by default the download of an update and announced that "administrative privileges are required to continue installation." Despite the installation is made by the administrator (me).

    AAM error.jpg

    Any ideas?

    Best regards, Duncan Rosie.

    Duncan, assuming that you are connected to an account that requires administrator privileges, then please try to temporarily disable your user account control.

    If you continue to receive the same error so I would recommend creating a new local administrator account and trying to update the applications there.

  • FAQ (27): the SDM requires administrator rights to run?

    When I launch SDM, it happens with this dialog box. Is this normal?

    Yes. SDM requires administrator rights because it requires the appropriate rights to update or apply SoftPaq updates to your computer.

    The above message appears only if UAC (User Access Control) is turned on and that the user doesn't have administrator rights. For more information about UAC, please visit this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Account_Control

    UNFORTUNATELY, the SDM version 3.5.0.0 (later from this post) has a problem where it wrong will not recognize the user as administrator if UAC is enabled.

    If you have the SDM version 3.5.0.0, have active UAC and you are logged on under an account that has administrator rights and SDM displays the dialog box above, please note that this is a bug found ONLY in the SDM 3.5.0.0 version and will be fixed with the next version.

    In the meantime, there are two solutions we can suggest you to work around this problem:

    (1) Although not recommended, you can disable UAC and reboot for the changes to take effect. We do not recommend this approach because UAC protects the computer against attacks. We include this option only for purposes of completeness.

    2) RECOMMENDED WORKAROUND: Force MDS to start with administrator right.  To do this, please follow these steps to work around the problem, until a new version of SDM is available:

    1. Open Windows Explorer.
    2. Go to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Hewlett-Packard\HP SoftPaq Download Manager. Note: If you have a 32-bit operating system, navigate to C:\Program Hewlett-Packard HP SoftPaq Download Manager.
    3. Right click on the file "SoftPaqDownloadManager.exe".
    4. Select "Run as Administrator" from the context menu.

    I never have this problem on other portable Toshiba (Tecra A4, S2, M1...) Please help :-)

    What about the case is clear, if the user wan to access the flash memory module inserted that he needs an admin rights

    What you could do is to assign admin rights only for this particular application, which is responsible for flash memory.

    I put t know exactly what applications it is but I guess on these program needs the right admin; Memory card SD, SD memory boot utility, format etc.

    To assign the authorization right right click on the applications and select Properties.
    Here, you have to choose the call of the Security tab.
    Then select the user and allow the full control option.

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • LegeCy medical application requires administrator rights to run on Windows XP but application resides on the SBS 2008 Server

    Hi all

    Application is a medical Client / Server using SQL in the database model. and resides on the SBS 2008 with XP Server and client computers.

    Rather that to load the client on windows XP, it would not sense to simply run the application console using the Terminal Server services and configure the application to start an hour of connection on. Given that the application requires administrator rights to run, how can I assign admin right only on demand, so when they connect, they can use the application with the given admin rights but do not have access to the rest of the server or control?

  • Cannot install Trend Micro 2012, receive error message: "your computer meets all the installation requirements, so Setup must stop."

    Original title: Problems installing Trend Micro 2012

    Tried to install Trend micro on my laptop, and towards the end of this way the message; "Your computer meets all the installation requirements, so the installer must stop." appeared. He then read "Windows update," I clicked on the link and also called microsoft who gave me the link updates from SP1 to SP2. I did (ran for almost 2 hours!) and recorded. I then checked the edition of windows under system and it has not saved the update even if it is registered and installed to my files. Tried to do the foregoing twice, still the same problem. Rang Dell and they sought to find an answer to the problem, but did everything they could. Still no answer to the problem after all. I have Windows Vista Home Basic as my operating system and installed Trend micro in the past with no problems. (Not sure if the following has nothing to do with it, but thought it might be useful a mention). I changed to Microsoft Office 2007, which has already been installed on my laptop for Office 2003, because I found it difficult from the laptop to the desktop and I didn't really want to pay for the upgrade of my office, if I didn't need it.

    Hello

    You need to install Trend Micro Titanium 2012 Vista SP2 or later version

    a. click Start, point to all programsand then click Windows Update or Microsoft Update.

    b. click view update history.

    c. find the latest entry for the specific update.

    d. If the entry shows the success in the status column, the update has been installed. If it says pending in the status column, the update is not installed.

    Post back with the history state of Windows update, mistakes, if there is.

    If the update is successful, if it does not show in system properties run System File Checker tool.

    To do this, follow the steps in this link:

  • Impossible to properly install Windows 7 (installation requires no key)

    I am trying to reinstall Windows 7 (SP1) with the restore disc provided by the manufacturer, I can later he move to Win 10 (knowing that my Win7 key does not work for Win10).

    Installing Win7 works very well, but he never asks for a key.

    later in Windows I look in the search bar to "activate Windows" which States that my Windows is genuine, but if I look in the properties of the key varies a lot from the key I've provided, (on a side note, the key in the properties contain the letters "OEM")

    When I try to upgrade to windows 10, this installation requires a key for which (not surprisingly) does not have the Win7.

    Is there a way to "force" the installation for Win7 to require a key?

    If your current operating system is turned on when you upgrade, you can simply skip the step where it asks for the key, and the installation will verify your credentials with online activation server and complete the installation

    The fastest way to get the upgrade is to download the ISO.  Year ISO is like a dvd in order to to use, you need to right click > go up.  Begin upgrading Windows.

    WARNING: do not USE NOT THESE TO DO A CLEAN the INSTALLATION (before after you have already updated).  If you do you will not be able to activate it without having previously upgraded to win 10 and active.  Then, you will be forced to reinstall your previous operating system before the upgrade to win 10
    Running the tool of creation of media warning can prevent you to roll back to a previous operating system

    The official download Final Windows 10 is now available

    Use the download tool to create ISO support to update your windows.

  • Dropbox requires administrator rights to continue, but could not raise (an error unexpected ole32::CoCreatGuid (i sr1) I)

    Hi, I keep getting the error message: Dropbox requires administrator rights to continue, but could not raise (an unexpected error (error unexpected ole32::CoCreatGuid (i sr1) I) when trying to install Dropbox, but I can not install and update other programs.)  My antivirus found 3 viruses today and removed. I can't reinstall Windows is an option, but I am abroad now and do not want to do it until I got home...
    Please, help :)

    I think that you have already found a solution for this problem.

    But my problem was a little like you, when the box has been commissioning it fails due to administrator permissions.

    Solution:

    -> Open TaskManager

    -> Go to startup

    -> Select Dropbox and press the left button of the mouse to properties

    -> A obtained the compatibility chart

    -> Check the box "run this program as Administrator"

  • All actions that require administrator crash explore rights

    Hi all

    I am the only user and administrator of a laptop 2 years running Windows 7. Since a few weeks I'm having the following problem:

    Every time I try to do anything that requires administrator rights - anything with the small blue and yellow shield icon or anything that triggers the popup user account control - action fails, the browser freezes and folders, start menu etc will not work again until I restart the computer. This includes for example

    • uninstall programs
    • Copy / move files in certain folders such as Program Files
    • run as administrator
    • elevated command prompt
    • Account user and UAC settings

    It is a particularly annoying question because that's a lot of steps that I would usually take to try to solve the Windows completely unavailable to me. In fact, I fear that a type of Windows backup & restore or re - install wizard may also fail because I am unable to do anything requiring a UAC confirmation.

    Additional information:

    • the problem appeared when I tried to delete a folder called C:\d674b4d8ac649aa28b5935e3e33163 (I can't open it even and I don't know what it is)
    • When the Explorer froze and I force a restart, an error message appears briefly before the stop. ("Too other files are currently used by 16-bit programs. Quit one or more 16-bit programs, or increase the value of the FILES command in your config.sys file. »)

    What can I do to fix this problem and regain control of my laptop?

    This does not resolve the issue.

    OK, here's the next steps when running in Mode safe:

    • Re-run msconfig.exe, then do this:
      1. click on the Services tab.
      2. check the box that hide all Microsoft services.
      3. uncheck all remaining hatches.
    • Run this command from a command prompt:
      SFC.exe/scannow

    If this does not resolve the problem when booting in Normal Mode, so I am unable to offer any other suggestions.
