Game Crashing On Launch (Help!)

    So every time I start up BeamNG and launch it from the launch menu it instantly crashes and the error it gave me to copy/paste reads as follows,

    "BeamNG.drive 0.10.0.1 unable to start game - Error 0x000002E4 The requested operation requires elevation."

    I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. I've tried clearing the cache (Both on Steam and from the laucher menu), I've tried launching in safe mode, verifying the integrity, checking for fixes online, trying to send support tickets in (Which I don't know why that didn't work, it just gave me an error.), re-installing the game (Did this 3-4 times with no prevail), and any combination of the aforementioned attempts. I've ran a PC cleaning scan and that didn't seem to help either. I'm hoping someone here can help me out so I can return to the glory of smashing cars repeatedly.

    Thanks!

    What OS are you using?

    What are your computer's specs?

    That makes me think that somehow your Windows account does not have permission to do a certain operation.
    That could happen if you are using a 'Limited' type of Windows account (and not a normal one). Is that your case?

    UPDATE/FIX

    So I went into my steam folder and found the BeamNG Launcher (This PC>Local Disck (C:)>Program Files (x86)>Steam>SteamApps>common>BeamNG.drive) adn went into the properties list and fiddled around while looking at this forum. I changed the tick box for "Run as administrator" and saved it and loaded it up via Steam and it now works.

    Thank you for the suggestions guys! It really did help!
