Need Permission to Continue??

Expand Post »
I am having a problem when I try to run some things on my computer. When I click on them to run the program a window pops up saying that I need permission to continue. But I am the administrator and the only person on my computer. So I do I get the permission or what settings do I need to change?? Thanks.

Re: Need Permission to Continue??
It's called User Account Control (UAC) and even though you are an admin, you're given a regular user token and are prompted any time you require elevated permissions. In Vista it can be turned off in Control Panel(not recommended) and in Windows 7 the control panel also allows you to adjust the degree of security you want to use.
