Access Denied Administrator Account
some programs will automatically prompt you to run it in an
administrative context when you run them. These programs are typically
ones that serve only one purpose which require administrator rights in
order to run; examples of these are any of the administrative tools that
ship with Windows 7. Other programs like the command prompt don’t
always need to be run in the administrative context. Simply using the
DIR command and browsing folder structures can be done as a normal user,
it does not require you to be an administrator. So, although you are
logged in as an administrator it will run it under you standard user
context. If however you type something like IPconfig /renew it
will error saying access denied. At this point you need to close the CMD
prompt and find it again in the start menu but this time right click
and choose “Run as administrator”. This will now launch the program
using the administrator token where IPconfig /renew will now work.
