Hi

I have installed the process manager but when i go to run it i am getting the error "Process monitor requires Administrators group membership"

I have contacted our network administrator and they have set us up as local administrator group. When i run the program do i need to update any settings

Is anyone aware of this message?

Thanks
Ian

Even though you are a local admin, are you sure you have SeLoadDriverPrivilege ("Load and unload device drivers")?

Hi molotov
 
To be honest I am not sure if I have the SeLoadDriverPrivilege. Do you know how i can check if I have this or not?
 
Regards
Ian

I suppose one way is to start Process Monitor, and when the message box stating "Process monitor requires Administrators group membership" is up, use Process Explorer to view procmon.exe's properties.  On the "Security" tab of procmon.exe's properties, SeLoadDriverPrivilege should display.

hey,
i will tag along since i have similar problem with process monitor.
I will need to be able to launch Process Monitor under regular user with some permissions.
I added the user to Debug privileges and Load and Unload Drivers. Also when i open Process monitor i get message "Unable to load Process Monitor device driver". In Process Explorer i checked security and  it does display SeLoadDriverPrivilege without any flag. 
Almost does not count

Quote I will need to be able to launch Process Monitor under regular user with some permissions.

One workaround is to use RunAs, or PsExec to start ProcMon under an admin account.

Hi brianap,
 
What is the exact problem you are having?  Are you running procmon.exe as a member of the Administrators group?

Hi molotov,
 
I am the only administrator. There are 2 accounts on the pc, me and the guest accounts. I tryed the explorer to see if the "SeLoadDriverPrivilege" was enabled and it was. I cant find a salution, I am the only administrator on the pc.
