What causes this error for asking User to be an Administrator?

This error indicates that you are trying to access the system files through command prompt, and for that you need permission or you have to be the administrator. If you open a command prompt by just double clicking or right-click then clicking open, it will start in normal mode. But, if you right-click it and Run it as administrator then the CMD will open as an Elevated Command Prompt. Whenever you need to do changes or run system files you have to open CMD in elevated mode. Below we have a solution about how to do that.

Running Command Prompt as Administrator

To run the SFC Utility command we always need to run elevated command prompt, which is the command prompt running with the permission of the administrator. When you run it as an administrator you let the CMD access and use your system files, and SFC Utility is one of the system commands. To do that, follow the steps below

1. When you see this error you must be in CMD, close it
2. Go to where CMD is, start menu or search in the search bar
   Note: For older windows, it will be: Start > All Programs > Accessories
3. Right-click on CMD
4. Select “Run as administrator”

   Tip: CTRL + SHIFT + Enter (will open CMD in administrator mode without right-clicking and selecting option)

5. Click “Yes” for User Control verification
6. Now type “sfc /scannow” and enter
7. It will start the system scan

Bonus: Setting Elevated CMD as Default

You can make the CMD run as administrator always whenever you open it, by doing the following steps below:

1. Go to where CMD is, start menu or search in the search bar
   Note: For older windows, it will be: Start > All Programs > Accessories
2. Right-click on CMD, and select “Open File Location”
3. Now, right-click “CMD” shortcut and select “Send to > Desktop”

The issue when running Command Prompt as admin

If you are running the command prompt as an administrator and still getting this error. You can try to use a third-party program named NSudo. It will basically give you permissions of TrustedInstaller.

1. Download NSudo from this link (here).
2. Once it’s downloaded, right-click on it and run as administrator.
3. Now when the program is opened, check the option named “Enable all privileges”.

5. Once Command Prompt is opened try running the “sfc /scannow” command again.
6. Check to see if the issue still persists.

If that doesn’t work for you as well, you can try to boot your Windows into safe mode then try to run SFC Command.
