    In this video is show you how to fix the Access Denied error while executing commands through command prompt. This occurs because the user does not have permission on the cmd.exe file to allow changes to be made. Another problem we face is UAC (User access control) is turned on by default, which prevents the user from making changes that could harm a system. These occur even though you are running an administrator account.
    PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR ISSUES THAT MAY OCCUR, THIS IS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY
    Now onto the fix
    1) we are going to turn off UAC. start, control panel, search bar at top right, type uac, and its the first option. click on it and drag the bar all the way to the bottom so it is off.
    2)were going to change the owner of the file as you have to be the owner to make changes to permissions. to do this we are going to hold the start button (on your keyboard+r) and type c:\windows\system32 in the run dialog box. When system32 folder opens, type cmd and click the cmd.exe file at the top. now right click, properties, security, advanced, and at the top where it displays owner, click change and type in your username, and click Ok.
    3)Next were going to set the permissions to allow you to make changes. right click cmd.exe again and click properties, security, edit, add (your username). Click full control box and click apply.
    4) finally exit out of the cmd properties, right click the cmd.exe file and click run as administrator. In your command prompt, type you command that wasnt working originally, and
    BINGO

    Wondering if you can help...I am trying to remove daugava malware...have managed to remove it twice in the past manually from the cmd line but this time it has three .exe files that give me the "Access is denied" message when I try to del them. I have also already manually deleted the relevant registry files. I already have UAC turned off. Any suggestions?

  • @andrewryder7190
    @andrewryder7190 8 лет назад

    This is brilliant. It never occurred to me (and maybe it should've) that permission to cmd.exe was the issue. It didn't work for me exactly as in the video as I couldn't add users even after changing the owner. So, I simply copied cmd.exe to another folder and, as it was me who pasted, the new copy already had me as the owner and as a user with full control.I was able to delete some malware and get my PC back - yeh!!, thanks Nik.

    • @icanswim70
      @icanswim70  8 лет назад

      A lot of people are having the issue of "Enter Administrator Password to Continue". If you get that message it means either you or a previous owner or someone set a password on the Admin account. By default that shouldn't come up like in the demonstration. Think real hard and try to remember the password, or you can try to reset the admin password using third party software like "PC LOGIN NOW", it's a bootable program that allows you to update the admin password from outside the OS.

      you can access files that tend to hide without cmd or turning anything off.
      go to this PC
      find your user file and open it
      find the file labeled local and open it
      find yeova open it and drag all files within directly to the recycle bin
      empty the recycle bin then restart your computer.
      once the virus is gone you should notice an improvement in the performance of that computer.
      as an added bonus this is also where you may find residual files of deleted programs as well. Just make sure not to delete anything without knowing what it is. :)
