How to make Windows 8 understand you ARE the Administrator

So let's start.

User Account Control (UAC) - Elevate Privilege Level - Vista Forums

1) Type secpol.msc in the Start Menu and press Enter.

2) Double click on Local Policies then double click on Security Options.

3) Scroll to the bottom to this entry -

User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin approval mode.

Double click that line.

4) Set it to disabled then press OK.

5) Reboot.

How to test that it works? Open a regular command prompt. Run this command, which you can stop anytime.

sfc /scannow

You will not be denied.
