fatal: failed to start gitlab-runner: access is denied

When I try to install gitlab runner I get the error message below:

Microsoft Windows (Version 18618362778)

C:\gitlab runner>gitlab-runner.exe install 
Runtime platform arch=i386 windows pid-11732 revision=4c96e5ad version-12.9.6
FATAL: Failed to install gitlab-runner: Access is denied.

C:\gitlab_runner

I need to know how to fix this and why this appears.

Solution

  • GO to cmd --> rightclick as "administrator" type the command as gitlab-runner.exe install
