Run it As Administrator

Be sure your account is in the Administrator group.

Open a CMD prompt as administrator. Then run control-panel.bat in order to launch.

Scenario 1: Right-Click on Control panel.bat (DS) & Run as administrator.

Scenario 2: Check is DS is running as Services. If so stop the service & run the Control Panel.bat in administrator mode.

Scenario 3: Open CMD in administrator Account & Define the location. Later, Run the Control Panel.bat.
