Windows 10 / PC -

- At the usual command prompt, this message:

 - "This command required administrative privileges and must be executed from an elevated command prompt.

 - I am the sole user of this PC and already have administration privileges.

 - Why does the command prompt not already recognize that?

 - So how do I get to the elevated command prompt?

Thank you / appreciated.
