Grell63 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hi, I purchased the Combat Mission SF bundle with the Marine add on on Monday. The game ran fine. I loved the game so much that I just about an hour ago I bought the three pack consisting of Marines, British and Nato forces, I figured the Marine add-on would simply overwrite itself. Now when I try to start the game it won`t start and it gives the following message: `In order to finish initializing, this application must first be run by a user with administrator privileges. Please contact your system administrator for help. 0-3` Can someone kindly help, I am new to this game and I really love it. Best Regards, Greg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2lose Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I am not that much of a techie but if you are running Windows 7 if you right click on the desktop icon you can run it as administrator from there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 `In order to finish initializing, this application must first be run by a user with administrator privileges. Please contact your system administrator for help. 0-3` This is a Windows UAC (User Access Control) alert, telling you that you need to "Run as admin". Right-click, select Properties, and set the games to "Run as administrator". That ought to fix the problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
