I didn't configure reporting services on my local machine during the initial installation. I recently had to test something on my machine and configured everything from 'Reporting Services Configuration Manager' and when I tried to access reports on IE, I initially had to enter my windows login and password (which is silly, how hard is it to get the current login and security token without having to enter manually?) I was greeted with the below message:
Really? I had to launch IE using "Run As Admin" to get this to work. But that doesn't solve the problem forever. You either set your IE to run as an admin or disable UAC. But what if you access this server from different machines?
There is a workaround though: Once logged into report server, go to
Site Settings => Security => New Role Assignment => and Grant your admin login a System Admin role.
User 'DOMAIN\LOGIN' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed
