    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Windows System Error 5,New-SmbShare

i am a local admin and uac is disabled.

anyone with the golden sollution?

thanks in advance.

many thanks for the reply, that doesnt sound logical to me. Uac is disabled and  am the local admin.

Whats different when running "as administrator" ?

I believe this huge thread will help you to understand reality of UAC https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/windows/en-US/60d3a7af-cd21-4ea4-ac97-ebfab2aa6ed4/apps-not-allowed-when-uac-is-disabled

Right click on "PowerShell ISE" then run as administrator.

runnins as admin still gives me the following error:

WARNING: Oupps, you need to run this script from an elevated PowerShell prompt!
Please start the PowerShell prompt as an Administrator and re-run the script.
WARNING: Aborting script

tried powershell x32, powershell ise and powershell x32 ise

You were not running powershell as admin.  Did your powershell windows say "administrator"?

nope, it doesn't. noticed that running as administrator doesn't work.

i created a shortcut and enabled the 'run as admin' option and now it works.

thanks for the help.

Thanks for letting us know & happy to help.  Good luck
