Administrator - Elevated Command Prompt

[Hikermann]

Windows 10 / PC -

- At the usual command prompt, this message:

- "This command required administrative privileges and must be executed from an elevated command prompt.

- I am the sole user of this PC and already have administration privileges.

- Why does the command prompt not already recognize that?

- So how do I get to the elevated command prompt?

Thank you / appreciated.

Press the Start button at bottom left of your screen, then in the search bar that is just above it type cmd
Choices will open above. Right-click cmd.exe and select Open as Administrator from the list.
