What does it mean if a computer requires elevation?
Elevation is a Microsoft Windows term; other operating systems have a similar concept under a different name. Normally, Windows runs in "restricted" mode, which prevents applications from installing without the user's knowledge or consent, and prevents unauthorized changes to the system's parameters.
In order to configure the system or install a new application, Windows will request "elevation" from the user. This means that the system needs more than "restricted" access, and needs to move up to "admin" access in order to complete the process. Once the process is complete, the system returns from its "elevated" status of "admin" back to the "restricted" mode.
You should only authorize an "elevation" if you specifically requested a change to your computer or are attempting to install a new application. If you did not request any changes, you should instead not allow the "elevation" to occur, which will prevent malicious software from taking over your system.
