When I attempt a "perfmon /report" I receive the following error message.

" Error:

An error occured while attempting to generate the report.


Access Denied. "


I am logged in as administrator so I am confused as to what is going on.

Thank you.

I'm guessing you already read the following?

I added my User account to Performance Monitor Users and Performance Log Users as Microsoft suggested and I receive the following when trying to run "perfmon /report":

Error:

An error occured while attempting to generate the report.


Access Denied.


I am still searching for a solution but hope someone here can help. Again, thanks.

I am logged in as administrator so I am confused as to what is going on.

You're logged in as an Administrator, but are you running CMD.exe as an Administrator? Commands such as this one as well as gpupdate /force should fail (in the latter case, it may succeed, but skip some policies which you do not have permission to access / apply) when run from a standard command line instance.

Otherwise, check this out:

I disabled the proxy server setting in chrome and this worked.

Was that a custom proxy server set by you, or you have no idea where it came from?
