Windows administrator. The requested operation requires an increase

When performing any tasks in the Windows 7 Command Interpreter or the application launch (computer game), an error message appears: "The requested operation requires increasing". This situation may even occur if the user opened a software solution with the OS administrator rights. We will proceed to solve this problem.

WINDOVS 7 implements accounts of two types. One of them for an ordinary user, and the second has the highest right. This account is called "Super Administrator". For the safe operation of the novice user, the second type of recording is in the off state.

Such a separation of powers "was noted" from systems based on Nix.Technologies, which have the concept of "root" - "superuser" (in a situation with Microsoft products is a "super administrator"). Let us turn to the methods of eliminating a malfunction associated with the need to increase the rights.

Method 1: "Startup on behalf of the administrator"

In some cases, to correct the problem, you must start the application on behalf of the administrator. Software solutions with expansion .vbs., .cmd., .bat. Start with administration rights.

If you have the need to include any program very often, then go to the properties of the label of this object and perform the following steps.

Now this application will automatically be launched with the necessary rights. If the error does not disappear, then go to the second method.

Method 2: "Super Administrator"

This method is suitable for an experienced user, since the system in this mode will be extremely vulnerable. User, changing any parameters, can harm your computer. So, proceed.

This method is not suitable for Windows 7 Basic, as in this version of the Microsoft product there is no local user item in the computer management console.

This action will activate the account with the highest rights. You can enter it after restarting the computer or using the output from the system by changing the user.

In this article, we will consider such a mistake as "Error 740", the exact wording of which "The requested operation requires an increase, failure; Error code 740 " And her decision.

The solution to solving this problem has recently been very popular, as this error pops up from many users. Consider the cause of the occurrence and how to solve it.

This text in the error issues User Account Control (That in translation of user account control) - a function that ensures that unauthorized changes and third-party files do not fall into system files. This message means that your account you used is missing rights to run the program.

The only correct and effective solution to this problem is to start the game or application on behalf of the administrator. In order to make it you need to click on the file to the file you want to start and select the "Startup from the administrator" item. You can also just disable User Account Control (User Account Control) to "Error 740" no longer occurred when playing games and applicationsOr create an account with the administrator's rights, in which you can run absolutely all applications.

Error 740 when installing the game: how to fix

The "CreateProcess: Failure" error covers many areas of the computer system. Some problems appear quite spontaneously, while others were created by the user. The main causes of the occurrence of conflicts may be considered administrative rights, lack of necessary updates and closed folder parameters. The most common warnings include the following failures 740 , 2 , as well as 261 ,267 . It is with them most often come across when the "CreateProcess" message appears in Windows.

CreateProcess problem: The requested operation requires an increase

Causes of CreateProcess failures

If earlier the administrator rights were insignificant, then starting with Windows 7 the situation in the root changed. Modern operating systems begin to use a double administrative system. This means that for some actions may be required "Special administration", fully bypassing the standard "Startup on behalf of the administrator". Conflict in the absence of authority and can issue an error "CreateProcess: Failure (740, 2, 261,267). The requested operation requires an increase. "

How to fix "CreateProcess failure - code 740"

If error Code 740. Appears when using programs, then you need to run it on behalf of the administrator. All this is done through the right mouse button. There, go to the properties and in the tab Compatibility Specify the compatibility mode with Windows XP. But if this method does not work, then you need to draw the following options.

First option. An effective way is considered to be disabling the administrator account. The working computer in the office is better not to disconnect, but if you have at home, then this method for you is the most suitable.

The second way. Set all accounts to the most minimal position. You need to change the system configurations.

Solution of failure "CreateProcess: Code 2"

This failure there is therefore the exception, which is watered by different updates in system. Perhaps recently updates were made or a game was installed, but there were failures in the process. The user does not always know about it that makes the emergence of a failure of an unexpected event.

• The decision to check the PC for the presence of the latest updates for all components.
• Visit the official library page DirectX And download them.
• Run the DirectX and try your actions again.

CreateProcess: Error 261, 267

For these failures, you need to try to make a personal resolution for the folder where programs are installed. After all, it is when installing utilities and software that can meet these conflicts (ERROR 261, 267).

• Click on the folder where you are going to install the right mouse button.
• Choose "Properties" and "Safety".
• Choose your administrator and click "Change".
• Put a checkbox in the column "Allow" "Full access".
• Click OK.

We solve the problem "Error 261 and 267"

Council. Do not forget to install software using the rights from the administrator and have current updates on your computer for all necessary Windows components (DirectX, Microsoft Visual C ++, .NET Framework, etc.). By performing simple actions in Windows, you can avoid not only the appearance of the errors described above, but also other problems.

With the output in Windows Vista and Windows 7, PC users when starting some applications, began to face an error from time to time "", which is sometimes accompanied by a signature " Code 740.". After the release of Windows 8, and in the future and Windows 10 cases of the appearance of an error with" relief requirement"Not only did not declined, but on the contrary, it became more frequent if you believe numerous complaints on the Internet forums.

As part of this article, we will consider the causes of the error " The requested operation requires an increase"And we will analyze several ways to eliminate it.

Error: The requested operation requires an increase

To begin with, let's understand why an error 740 appears. The easiest answer to this question is: "The user is not enough rights to fulfill the required operation." To disassemble the essence of the problem, tackle the settings of the Windows account records.
In the process of installing the system, the installer asks someone who initiated the process itself, to make a record for themselves, simply speaking - create a user. In the future, this account is assigned administrator rights (there are exceptions, but now we will not stop at them). What do these administrator rights mean? Let's give a simple definition:

Administrator rights - This is a set of extended permissions and increasing accessible to the user actions in the Windows operating system, which distinguish it from other accounts in the system

That is, the user with administrator rights are available to those actions that are not available to other users:

• data record in Windows system directories and delete information from them;
• installing / deleting programs in the presence of restrictions on these actions;
• call system functions from the command line;

and others.

However, in some cases, the user's authority with administrator rights may not be enough to perform certain operations. At such moments, the user and receives an error in which it is said that " The requested operation requires an increase". But who, if not a user with admin rights, can perform such operations? The answer to this is the built-in computer administrator account. Simply put - standard Windows System Administratorwhich is sewn in the OS even before installation.

Windows administrator - This is a standard account in the system that has administrator rights, that is, elevated rights to perform operations

If you pose an analogy with a Linux system, then standard Administrator in Windows. medium something similar root user In UNIX-like operating systems. Conditionally this account can be represented as Super Windows administrator. This is just that the most "enhancement" that "requires the requested operation" from the error above.
About how to use an administrator account and where to find it at all, we will talk below.

Run on behalf of the administrator

The simplest and at the same time correct decision of the error about the lack of user rights - starting the program on behalf of the administrator.
To begin with, we wonder, how to run the program on behalf of the administrator.

Here everything is very simple: we right-click on the program shortcut or by the executive file and select the item.

In the Start System menu Windows 10. The operation will look as follows: Right-click on the desired application, in the context menu, you will bring the cursor to the string additionally and select the item Run on the name of the administrator.

In addition, in some programs, the start button on behalf of the administrator is integrated into the interface itself, such as the CSP cryptopro program referred to in the article Press the certificate of a private key to the Register of Cryptopro
With such a launch of programs and games, the error "The requested operation requires an increase" should not appear. However, if we often have to work with a program or programs that require launch from the name of the administrator, each time calls this function by pressing the right mouse button, not very convenient.
To start the program on behalf of the administrator when it is called double-clicking or the Enter key, we need to configure its label or the executive execution file itself * .exe.. To do this, click the right mouse button on the application label and open properties. In the window that opens, go to the Compatibility tab. Now we are looking at the bottom of the window item Run this program on behalf of the administrator And install the flag-checkbox opposite it. Click the OK button.

Setting up the label is over, each subsequent launch of the program with the usual double-click will cause this application with increased rights. To similarly configure a shortcut in the Windows 10 Start menu, you must first call the option. Go to the location of the file, where to click on the right mouse button along the label itself and set it up according to the example above.
Labels of all programs assigned to the Start menu Windows 10. You can find in the next directory:

C: \\ PROGRAMDATA \\ Microsoft \\ Windows \\ Start Menu \\ Programs

Administrator account

The second solution of the error " The requested operation requires an increase"which we look at it activation of an administrator account built into Windows, and perform the necessary operations from the user administrator.
This method is not very desirable, since after logging into the system under the account, the administrator of the Uzera will be available more functions and capabilities, which, on the one hand, are absolutely not needed by ordinary users of PC, and on the other - can harm the system and its components with uncontrollable use.

However, the ability to activate the built-in account, the administrator is, and this opportunity should be considered. We give three ways to activate the user super administrator.

Administrator activation through the utility Local users and groups

To invoke the user settings window, run the program from Start - All programs - Standard - Perform Service WIN. and R. And execute the command lusrmgr.msc. (Abbreviated OT local User ManagerWith English and means "Local User Management")

In the left side of the window that opens, go to the users folder, after which you find the user in the main area of \u200b\u200bthe window Administratorwhich will be marked with a circle with an arrow pointing down. This icon means that this account is disconnected and is in inactive condition.

Click on the line by the administrator right-click and open the write properties. In the Properties window: Administrator on the General tab find item Disable account And we remove the flag-tank flag. Press the OK button.

In the future, to disable the built-in administrator, it will be necessary to simply remove the daw in the same place.

Administrator activation through the utility Local security policy

To go to the configurations of the local computer security policy, you also launch the program from Start - All programs - Standard - Perform (In Windows 10, the utility is performed in the catalog Service) Or simultaneously press buttons WIN. and R. And execute the command secpol.msc. (from English security Policy. - "Security policy")

In the window that opens in the left tree of the parameters, we unfold the branch Local politicians and allocate the cursor item Security parameters. Now in the right side of the windows we find item Accounts: Administrator account status, Click on it right mouse button and go to properties

In the window that opens on the tab Local security parameters Activate the option is enabled and press the OK button.

To deactivate the administrator account, you must, respectively, switch the-checkbox to the disabled position.

Administrator activation from the command line

The last way to activate the administrator's built-in in Windows, which we will look at will be executed on the command line. Due to the need to work with Windows Console, this option is not the most popular, but, in fact, it is even faster than the previous two.

To start run the command prompt on behalf of the administrator . You can do this as the usual call of the menu by right-click on the shortcut, and as follows using the example of Windows 10: right-click on the Start button in the lower left corner of the monitor and select the item in the list that opens Command Line (Administrator)

Net User Administrator / Active: Yes

In response, we must receive notice from the console that The command is successful. If instead the command line responds that " No username found. To call an additional help, type Net Helpmsg 2221. "This means that we use the operating system version, intended for another language.

In this case, activate the administrator by another team:

Net User Administrator / Active: Yes

Subsequently, to disable the user, the administrator needs to use one of the following commands.
For the Russian-language version of the system:

Net User Administrator / Active: NO

For the English version of the system:

Net User Administrator / Active: NO

Next, regardless of the choice of a method of activating the user administrator, we need to restart a computer. When you start the system after rebooting, we will select several users to enter OS, among which the administrator recording activated is previously activated.

Accounting control

And the latter in the framework of the current publication of the error bypass " The requested operation requires an increase" - this is disable Account Control.

Accounting control (UAC - User Account Control) is an operating component of Windows system that provides a request for confirmation of the administrator when performing operations of varying degrees of availability

As with the use of the administrator account, we do not recommend completely disable UAC, but we present a description of the method to do this in order to clarify the method of changing the settings of this OS parameter.
So that disable Windows Account Control, go to Control Panel And follow the path Control Panel\user accounts\user accounts. Here at the bottom of the window user accounts Click on the option Change account control settings. New window will open User Account Management Settingsin which we need to move the vertical slider settings down to the option Never notify. After that, click on the OK button.

On this we end the consideration of the question of how to activate the Windows administrator account and fix the error " The requested operation requires an increase"When starting programs or games.

The user during the work with the Windows 10 operating system has to face different errors. It is not always a precursor presence on a computer of viruses, often errors arise due to improper operation of used applications or compatibility issues. Error "The requested operation requires an increase" (which can also appear under CO code 740) indicates that a malfunction has arisen during work with the application. As part of this article, we consider how it can be corrected.

Table of contents:

Why an error occurs "The requested operation requires an increase"

Most often, the problem under consideration occurs in the process of running a new process (for example, a program or program installer). In ordinary cases, the cause of its occurrence is insufficient rights of the user who launched the program. That is, to correct the error in such a situation, it is enough to switch to an administrator account.

But there are also situations where the administrator is faced with this problem. What to do in such cases will look at more.

Error "The requested operation requires enhancement" when starting the downloaded file

A fairly typical problem when the error in question occurs with just downloaded files. For example, you downloaded the software from the Microsoft website, run it for installation, but the 740 failure occurs. This problem happens if you run the program installer directly from the browser. Try to enter the folder with downloaded files and run the downloaded file from it.

This problem is related to the fact that when the file is started directly from the browser, it often happens under the rights of a regular user, even if the administrator profile is currently used on the computer. For example, this situation is typical when you start files from the Microsoft Edge browser.

Please note: if just when you start a downloaded file from the folder, an error "The requested operation requires an increase", try starting it on the administrator. To do this, click on the file with the right mouse button and select the "Run from the administrator name" item. But at the same time you must be sure that the "clean" file, we recommend initially checking it with antivirus.

What to do if "the requested operation requires an increase"

If you encountered this error not during the startup of the just downloaded file, you can try some other ways to solve the problem.

Some users are installed by default in the program properties tick in the point "Run this program on behalf of the administrator". It may be necessary, for example, when the application refuses to work if it is not regularly run on behalf of the administrator. With this checkbox, an error may occur "The requested operation requires an increase" when accessing the conductor through the context menu. This is due to the fact that the default conductor starts executable files under the rights of a regular user and cannot execute the installed launch property on behalf of the administrator.

In this situation, the solution will be in properties to remove a tick from the "Run this program on behalf of the administrator".

Note: If the forced start on behalf of the administrator in the properties of the program is not installed, but the error in question occurs, you can try, on the contrary, install a tick in the "Run this program on behalf of the administrator".

Other causes of errors "The requested operation requires an increase"

If the program starts from under another program, the user may encounter an error in question. For example, when a separate launcher program uses to start a particular application (or games). Or, when after installing one of the applications, it starts automatically installing the other, you can often encounter when installing the game, when after installing the main packages, the DirectX installer and other components are launched.

To solve such a problem, you can try:

• On your own, start the executable file from the conductor, bypassing the additional "software layer". In a situation where the error "The requested operation requires an increase" after installing the game, go to the folder with the installation files and manually start installing DirectX or other required components;
• Run the problem application on behalf of the administrator discussed in the methods.

It is worth noting that also with the error under consideration under the code 740, the user may encounter when it saves certain files. This problem occurs when saving files to a custom folder (music, documents, images, and so on). In this situation, you can solve the problem if you specify another ass for saving.
