command prompt error 740

what does error: 740 mean in the command prompt?
Error 740 means that it requires elevation to run. Meaning you must run it as administrator.

Try right clicking the command prompt and running it as administrator.

Please let me know if that works.

Hey byronsiplin,

From what I understand, Error 740 is an elevation issue. Try running Command Prompt as an administrator and try whatever it is you were doing again (right-click Command Prompt then click "Run as administrator" in the context menu).

Hope this helps. If this doesn't, please let me know what you were doing at the time so I can better assist.
