At least you're keeping the rest of us well paid going in after you to clean up the mess I guess. That's quite possibly the worst advice I think I've ever seen anyone give. Vista has been the biggest marketing bonus for Apple in years.
I now have a 2 gig dual core machine that is slower than my old Athlon 64 with k and xpsp2. All I wanted to do was upgrade Office to the latest service pack. Since I couldn't transfer it I had to re-install. Try SP2 in the same way, and it all stops because MS doesn't think, even after saying yes twice as many times as before, that I can be trusted to upgrade it's own products.
So I now have to download the file, tell it NOT to run, find the downloaded file, right click and then run as administrator even though I AM administrator. This at least gives me the option of continuing or not. Yes Vista does not recognise a program that I've just downloaded from Microsoft to update a Microsoft product.
And, what with all the dialog boxes demanding that everything be confirmed yet again, could not this 'Elevation' dialog box include maybe a sentence on what elevation actually is, and how to use it. To run this program in elevated mode-- You have already said at least twice that you want to run it, click here??? Yes we know you are one, but you still can't be trusted with your own PC. Not a happy Vista user, it's bad enough having a nanny state, nanny Microsoft I can do without.
Having said that I do earn quite a bit of money from fixing other peoples Vista problems. Very common problems about which Microsoft either says nothing or posts a solution that involves registry hacks. Which quite naturally scares them rigid. Access denied to destination folder when transferring files usually MS Access ones over a home network.
Deompiling Access projects copied directly from an XP machine to a Vista one which no longer work because none of the code can be found. Can anyone help with Winzip on Vista. Have just purchased the latest SW upgrade v I went into the Winzip program folder and set every ".
I am having troubles and I need this function badly. It sees it, and I even get a select application messge if I press the scan button, but nothing every happens when I try to launch the function.
The scan function will just not launch. Similarly, my Acrobat v7 will not work on Vista. No matter how many times I install and download updates, I can never get an Acrobat printer to appear as one of my printers.
Since my inkjet printer will not work with my Vista machine either, I was hoping to print to Acrobat and take the file on a jump drive to my old XP machine where I can connect my printer. This was a large investment as well. Doea anybody know anyway to make Acrobat 7 work on Vista? Hi — I think my information can help. You can use another application to execute a program in elevation mode. Start proc ;. Show ex. Message ;. Else, you do not need to do this if the UAC is turned Off, of course.
For further reading:. Have a nice day…. Best regards, Fisnik. Please check the following link for Microsoft answer to the "The requested operation requires elevation". Hub Repeater - I know you posted this 6 years ago and may never read my response but you Sir have no clue as well as nearly everyone else that has posted a response to the initial question what the purpose of UAC is.
UAC was instituted by Microsoft as a way to combat all the hackers turning computers into zombies because all of the idiots that believe it is okay to logon to a computer and perform everything as an administrator.
There are too many users who have posted something in this forum who have no clue about security. UAC attempts to protect the user from drive by malware that would automatically install itself on Windows XP when users clicked on infected websites while logged on as an Administrator. What is the purpose of including necessary security features if they are going to be "turned off" by default. The content you requested has been removed. Ask a question. Quick access.

Sunday, February 18, AM. Is it the download that fails or the subsequent execution of the downloaded content? Proposed as answer by ghalebnassar of oswestry shropshire england Wednesday, May 12, AM. Wednesday, February 21, AM. Tuesday, February 27, AM. I tried to install Poser 6 trial version , I did not get any problem. Here are th steps that I followed. Extract the files. Run the exe. Thursday, March 1, PM. I think that in reading this thread I still have NO idea what that error is implying.
Anyhow I am not installing anything. Logged in as admin. Good luck folks,. Monday, July 30, PM. Yes, I work for Microsoft. That's kinda what the -MSFT after my name is supposed to indicate. This previous was in the context of this thread installation. Tuesday, July 31, PM. Eric, thanks for your responses -- I found both of them helpful and informative. How does one create a shortcut to cmd. I tried creating a shortcut, but the "run this program as administrator" checkbox is disabled.
I also tried copying cmd. Wednesday, August 8, PM. Friday, August 10, PM. That was it -- thank you for that! Clark 0. Just a little more information on the subject I found that at least for me right clicking and running as admin seems to take a while to load all the install information into the system or maybe its just sitting there pretending to do something although the executable is about 1. My system is brand new, I also do quite a bit of 3D art and animation work, I am also heavily addicted to flight simulator x.
So my computer is pretty robust! Anyway to the point, if you boot your system in safe mode it will ignore all the admin settings for program install. Boot in safe mode and then try installing poser 7 or anything else that requires elevation. I had to do the same thing when I installed the drivers on my new Geforce card.
Then just reboot the system in standard mode and you should be good to go! Its just an easy way around the command shell and running as sys admin. Hope this helps! Sunday, August 19, AM. This tread has answered the problem I had yesterday with ipconfig but I'm curious mention of disabling UAC whatever that is and wondering whether doing so would eliminate an annoyance for me. My preffered operating system is Linux and the way that works with root access would suit me, ie.
If I log on Vista Home with an administrator accout, I would like to accept full responsability for doing so without having to confirm that I want to do certain things or find some command needs "elevation", etc. I'm only logging on that way as I want full control.
