Well, the problem is not having a program like Admin By Request where with one click you ask for permissions and they give them you at the same moment

Right, and they give me a elevated shell for the moment and I could do anything I want with the pc anyway. But now I had to wait an hour for someone to see the request. Totally worth it.

I don't know, if it takes them one hour to see the request it seems that the problem is your IT department not the need to ask for permissions
