Administrative Privileges

Cerain software (KIS 6 Beta) I am trying to install gives me an error. Error
message: "You need admistrative privileges to install this prodect" There is
no way to run it as admin because there is no option.

Re: Administrative Privileges

Hi,

Right click the setup file, there should be an option to "run as
administrator" here.

Re: Administrative Privileges

It is easier to turn off UAC security, reboot and install, then turn the UAC
back on, and reboot when installing programs that require higher permissions.
