I am trying to make changes to parental controls. I get an error message that reads: "Unable to make changes to parental controls settings. If this problem persists, contact your system administrator." I am an administrator on the computer. I have tried creating a new account and making changes there and that did not work.

Help !! I installed Office - and as Administrator, I can access all the programs - but my current standard users (and ones that I just created) can only see Excel. Also - when I drag a program onto my desktop, it disappears from the Program list - how do I get it back on there ? Thanks for any help. I'm desperate

I opened an existing document I had saved in Word and when I tried to make revisions, the message came up that the document was "locked". When I went to "help" to see how to unlock it, it says to go to the Protect Document pane and click on "Stop Protection". However, when I go to this pane, there is no option to "Stop Protection" - help! -- montereynative

Hi, my son got a new computer (running vista) and right away created an admin account for himself, and made a secondary standard account. His account is password protected, and he refuses to let me have it. I was wondering if there was a way to access the admin account and install a parental control program which i have chosen by logging onto the standard account. I would preferably like if he...

I have a laptop with Vista Business on it. There are two accounts, one Admin and one User. I can log into the user as i know the password but have forgotten the Admin password.

I have tried all of the other suggestions and still get prompted for the forgotten password. I recently...

I just got Win7 Pro and am unable to access a PST file so I'm thinking maybe I need to be logged as admin. How do you do that? I tried the Start/Switch User but I only have the one user account, me. So how do I access the admnin account and since I never did setup a password for it what is it? password? Thanks

I thought I posted this but don't see it, sorry of this ends up as a repeat. I have a PST file from another install of Office 2010 Beta that I cannot use because it says I don't have permission. So I thought that maybe I should try it as admin but don't know how to get that login screen and I am not sure what the password would be since I just set this up 2 days ago. SO how do you get to the...

Is there a way to allow a trusted program through the user account control without asking for permission every time? I log into my laptop as an administrator and there is one program that needs consent through the user account control in order to run. The program is Cisco Clean Access Agent. The geek squad at my school installed it so I can log onto the school's wireless network with my...
