When an exploit is run the run metsvc command gives an error stating that it cannot open the service manager... Any way around it?... I have tried persistence as well. That too says ERROR in script: operation failed: Access denied?... Any help would be grateful..

You must be trying to install a backdoor on a windows 8/8.1/10 machine. You will always get access denied , since after windows 7 they have made patch around it, only administrator can get this access. And as far as I know there is no simple way to get the admin access on a windows 8 and afterwards machine with metasploit.
