Sophos Installation Failure : SeSecurityprivilege

Question

Hello, 
 We've been using Sophos for two years now. However, for the first time, we're encountering an issue during installation. An error indicates that the following privileges are missing: SeSecurityPrivilege. We've tried installing with a domain admin account and others, but we always end up with this error. Could you please help us? 
 Thank you.

 Thanks for reaching out to the Sophos Community Forum. 
 I'd suggest checking the following article, namely the section included below. Changes will need to be made to the local security policy on the affected device. - SophosSetup.exe precheck messages
