Requested operation requires elevation

The message, Requested operation requires elevation, may display if the operating system the Windows Agent is going to be installed on has User Access Controls enabled.

Solution

To resolve this issue, the Windows Agent or installer must run under administrative privileges.

To elevate permissions when initially installing the Windows Agent, right-click the Advanced Monitoring Agent executable and select Run as Administrator.

If the error message is displayed after the initial stage of the installation has occurred, or when accessing the Windows Agent after installation, right-click the Advanced Monitoring Agent from the programs list and again select Run as Administrator.
