Try going to Control Panel (Control Panel Home, not classic view) User Accounts and Family Safety, User Accounts, Manage Another Account; and see how many users there really are. If you are the only user as you say you are, then: Go back 1 page, and click (above Manage Another Account) Change Your Account Type, click Administrator, and click Ok. When that is done, log off and back on. Then try again. This is a shot in the dark because you may need a password to change account type. But it may work. Try it. -- Wadieface |

restart your computer in unfail mode and log on administrator ( this acount
is hidden in normal mode) open the management console open user directory and put your account un administrators group, then restart your computer, good luck " visscher" a écrit dans le message de news: ... wednesday 11-03-'09 I never payed much attention to register for an (administrator)account/password, because I was the only user, and always arrived direcly to the office-disk, when starting the computer. But now, when triing to install new (pinacle) software, I am summoned to log in as a administrator. I made an account + password, but I am still not acknowladged as an administrator. Maybe I ever entered a password, wich I dont know anymore. How can things be put straight again? Thank you in advance E.A.R.Visscher |
