Win 10 Pro - Constant Admin access denied and problems!
Win 10 Problems
I’m having Constant Access is denied (and related problems….
I have googled/searched a Lot for this problem, and find most solutions suggest use “Run as Administrator” or change(manhandle ACL/premissions). Yes this sometimes provides a work around, but leads to an ultimately UnManagable nightmare ( and an Unreliable machine)!
Quickly, I am an active (and certified) Ms .Net platform developer, currently developing/supporting production, mission critical application systems with/from Win 7 pro stations.
I’m trying to set up a Win 10 pro workstation that can pick up and reliably carry the Load.
I have all the hardware and software necessary to get the job done
I need (and have tried) to set up a workstation with following:
Win10 Pro x64, Office 2016 pro+, IIS, Sql Server 2016 and multiple versions or Visual Studio.
My Win 7 machines carry this basic Ms developer machine load Perfectly!!!
But I can’t get Win 10 Pro to even get started to run these products successfully…
( I have all these products, legally, and can/do clean load and install them repetitively until I either get it right or positively prove Win 10 is a Bust! So far it aint goin well…
So far I can get good clean installs of Win 10 pro & seen/active the LAN .
IIS will install as a feature and starts iisstart.htm – OK – but when I try to add a simple index.htm above it the problems start, access denied! (and im logged in as a user being a member of admins group). I can work around this with notepad, run as administrator, and /or start changing permissions and ACL’s – but that’s just the start of problems (and an unacceptable hack fix). Continuing on I also can get Visual studio installed and working in a crippled way. Can’t create, debug or publish(deploy) from or to a virtual web (without manhandling the file system {that’s not the way it’s supposed to work!}). Crippling ACL hacks and run as admin can get a task to work but then just creates another problem – like manually move/copy a file to a virtual web and then IIS can’t open the web cause I created the file(page.aspx) originally and IIS gets access denied!!! Crippled every where I turn…
The last straw, I installed SQL Server 2016, the product installed successfully, I can login as sa, all basics function, but I can’t login with my Windows acct (winauthencation) even being in the admins group or as running Sql Mgt Studio as run as Admin ( and yes SQl was installed with Mixed sql and Win authorization), and I just can't get around this!!!
Sorry for the long spew, just some background for my questions, so on with the questions…
1. Has anybody here set up a smooth, good running Win 10 pro x64 as a full Ms Dev/Test/Deployment machine? (and hands on experience with current dev products? I say current products cause I’ve been advised by Ms to first get current products sql 16, vs2015 running. [old vs08,10,12 & sql 08,12 might have compatibility probs)
2. Is there a (single) Security profile, Setting, or Local Policy I can add, change, or create that will make members of the Admin group truly an Admin much as it is in Win7 and Win Server systems?
In Win 10, a member of the Admin group is simply not and Admin! – cause ya have to Run as Admin even when the ACL of the resource explicitly allows full access to the Admin group – and sometime even that doesn’t work!
3. Is anybody else having these constant Problems?
Any good advice here…
Thanks in Advance, Bob
