    Access Denied

    I upgraded my Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate. On Home Premium I had IIS installed without problem. After I upgraded to Ultimate IIS was not installed so I had to manually select and install it.

    It gave an error during the IIS install that I don't recall. Now during an iisreset it gives the error below. There is only one user, Nick, and I have Administrator rights. This is not a remote computer.

    Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6000]

    C:\Users\Nick>iisreset

    Access denied, you must be an administrator of the remote computer to use this
    command. Either have your account added to the administrator local group of
    the remote computer or to the domain administrator global group.

    C:\Users\Nick>

    hi NickKA

    first

    Make sure you have administrative privileges on the machine: By default, you do not have them if you're logged on as a user other than the built-in Administrator account, even if this user was added to the local Administrators group on the machine

    second

     Using this software?

    isReset - Files/Folders attributes Reset Tool

    I got it working by turning off User Account Control. As I said, the user Nick is the Administrator and I don't even see a built-in Administrator user. In fact, when I log in I am not even offered an option to change users. I'm not sure why that is because beside me I see a Guest user account.

    It is recommended to turn off UAC. if you need to run the commond prompt as administrator, just right click and select - runas administrator.
