lodctr /r error code 5 while being Administrator - cmd

In order to fix a problem with performance counters, I have to follow a Microsoft tutorial.
It starts with this command "lodctr /R" but I'm getting error code 5 which is normally due to not having the permission.
The thing is in my case I'm running the cmd as administrator and the user I'm using have the administrator authority.
Anyone knows what can I do from here ?
Thanks in advance

Is there a method of running an application as a standard user?

I am currently testing permissions as an administrator and need to test something as a standard user. There are ways to make standard users run as administrator, but I can't think of a way to run as a standard user as an administrator. If I were to remove my administrator rights, it would take awhile for IT to give me my admin rights back. Is there a better option that doesn't include setting up my dev environment as another user? I'm trying to run Visual Studio as a standard user, if that helps.
Thanks in advance
Create a file with the contents "filename.reg":
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT*\shell\forcerunasinvoker]
#="Run without privilege elevation"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT*\shell\forcerunasinvoker\command]
#="cmd /min /C \"set __COMPAT_LAYER=RUNASINVOKER && start \"\" \"%1\"\""
Run the file and apply registry changes, and then right click "Run without privilege elevation" on the file that needs to be tested. Found this solution from another thread! Thanks!

Can't enable/disable a custom task neither from cmd nor with .bat/.vbs files

On another computer running win7 Pro i had no issue and i was using my.bat file with success. Now on my new win10 Home computer i get this error:
C:\Users\User>schtasks /change /tn "AlarmClockEarly" /ENABLE
ERROR: Access is denied.
But if i run the actual state of the task (for example if it is already disabled) i get this:
INFO: Scheduled task "AlarmClockEarly" has already been disabled.
SUCCESS: The parameters of scheduled task "AlarmClockEarly" have been changed.
The task as you can see is a custom made and i don't try to mess with Windows like disabling Updates or something plus i already checked the run with highest priviledges
I run cmd as an Administrator
I am already the Admin account in this PC
I also tried running the command and the .bat itself from the place it is stored C:\Users\User\Scripts>
Can't remember how many things i tried while searching for a solution. So you are my best hope and thank you in advance.
Well i found the solution and for anyone searching the same you ll have to go to C:\windows\system32 then find cmd and go to Properties -> Security. While SYSTEM is highlighted press Advanced at the bottom right and change the Owner from whatever to your account.

Error 1067- on start OpenSSH by net start opensshd in windows cmd

I try to start opensshd app by following command line: net start opensshd but i encounter below message after press enter in CMD:
The OpenSSH Server service is starting.
The OpenSSH Server service could not be started.
A system error has occurred.
System error 1067 has occurred.
The process terminated unexpectedly.
i install openssh.
please Help Me!
I got the similar problem that i cannot startup the "OpenSSH SSH Serve" service after following the instructions in https://hostadvice.com/how-to/how-to-install-an-openssh-server-client-on-a-windows-2016-server/
I later on found out that this is the security problem in the C:\ProgramData\ssh\ssh_host*key files. All the key files in this folder should ONLY be owned by following 2 system users:
BUILTIN\Administrators
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
In the Powershell under the C:\ProgramData\ssh folder, issue following command can list out the owners of the file ssh_host_dsa_key:
PS C:\ProgramData\ssh> icacls .\ssh_host_dsa_key
.\ssh_host_dsa_key BUILTIN\Administrators:(F)
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(F)
xxdomain\otheruser:(M)
Successfully processed 1 files; Failed processing 0 files
Obviously we need to remove the user "xxdomain\otheruser" from the owner list
Resolution
Updated on Nov 25, 2019: Found out that the OpenSSH-Win64.zip file already contained a powershell script: FixHostFilePermissions.ps1
What you need to do is to run following inside the powershell:
cd 'C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64'
.\FixHostFilePermissions.ps1
And press 'Enter' for each question to update the permission.
just write this command in PowerShell
cd 'C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64'
.\FixHostFilePermissions.ps1
then press enter .
I got this error, and it turned out in my case to be an error I'd made editing sshd_config, so be sure to check this. Spent ages trying to diagnose this.
Hope that saves someone some pain.
I got the same error by installing OpenSSH on Windows 7...
Open "services.msc" and try to start the service from there.
If it still doesn't work then you can try to follow the steps in this tutorial:
http://www.techpaste.com/2015/06/windows-ssh-server-setup-and-configuration/
One important thing: Try to download an older version of OpenSSH
Download Link: http://www.mls-software.com/opensshd.html#botpage
(I recommend you the version "setupssh-7.3p1-2")
Hope it works
Cheers
For me the solution was to download and install an MSI from this github repo

Netbeans - Error : Failed to create process Access is denied (5)

when i run netbeans encountering error
Error : Failed to create process Access is denied (5)
any one suggest me the solution.
Thanks in advance.
The Application need access to use from Administrator.
Give Access to The System which you are using
or Open the Application by Run as Administrator
But , Giving Admin access to Every user is not Good.
its problem with Netbeans Version : https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255756
I Uninstalled 8.1 and Installed Later Versions.
Give to user administrator rights, install Netbeans, run it. Remove administrator rights from user, restart pc. Its worked to me.

Permissions issue when building a project

I am trying to get a project to build on a machine but i get the following:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(744,5): warning MSB3075: The command "regsvr32 /s "C:\builds\working\\Win32\Debug\projx86.dll"" exited with code 5. Please verify that you have sufficient rights to run this command.
The previous error was converted to a warning because the task was called with ContinueOnError=true.
Build continuing because "ContinueOnError" on the task "Exec" is set to "true".
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(756,5): error MSB8011: Failed to register output. Please try enabling Per-user Redirection or register the component from a command prompt with elevated permissions.
The user account i am using is an Administrator on the machine so should that not have the highest privileges?
I can go to the startup and right click and run as administrator and that might sort it, but im trying to do an automated build and run of this project, so i cant use that method.
Anyone know how i might fix this?
Solution Explorer ->[YourProject]->Properties->Linker ->General->Per-user Redirection "TRUE"
I found this same issue when working on an C++ ATL project.
In my case, when I added a new ATL class I was missing a line in the resource file (.rc) that adds a resource type "registry" of the new class resource file (.rgs) . This creates the same permission issue stated above.
#LittleFairy answer is probably the best. But you could run Visual Studio as administrator.
Note: You need to explicitly start Visual Studio as administrator. Just the user account having admin rights isn't enough.
