RE: How to avoid "The requested operation requires elevation"

There is a way to turn off the UAC, but if you turn it off, you must re
enable it to allow the installation of programs that require access to the
Temp folder in your user account.

to turn it off:

1. go to control panel
2. Open the Users panel
3. Click "Turn User Account Control On or Off"
4. Uncheck the box next to "User User Account Control (UAC) to help protect
your computer."
5. Click OK
