As you will likely be using the SDK Manager more than once, and it will always need these admin rights, a better option than having to remember to right-click on the file/shortcut and select 'run as administrator' every time would be to set the application to always be executed with admin rights without you having to remember to do this every time by doing the following:

1. Navigate to the SDK Manager.
2. Right-click on the SDK Manager.exe file.
3. Select properties from the context menu.
4. Click the compatibility tab.
5. Select the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.
6. Click the ok button to close the properties dialog.
