Admin login is no enough. On Windows Vista and later versions, you need to run an application with elevated privileges. Please see:

... and don't forget that the file or directory can be on a write locked drive, a drive where space is not available, the file/directory can be protected against admin access (or the current username) or probably other things as well. The access failure is usually for the destination, but could also be the source file/dir...
