This Requested Operation Needs Elevation

07-11-2007

i get this message saying "This Requested Operation Needs Elevation"
when i try downloading a .zip file off of a website.
also, i dont want to disable UAC at all.
how do i get the "This Requested Operation Needs Elevation" to go away
without disabling UAC.
p.s i tried running Command prompt as admin and didnt work.

I'm assuming you are using Internet Explorer to download the file. You can
try to right click on Internet Explorer and "Run as Administrator" to open
Internet Explorer as Administrator. This might solve you problem. There isn't
a way to totally bypass UAC without disabling it.
