"run as administrator" "browser not running with Administrative Privileges"

Re: "run as administrator" "browser not running with Administrative Privileges"

hi grumpops,

goto control panel-user accounts and then change user account control settings, move slider down to disable it.

Re: "run as administrator" "browser not running with Administrative Privileges"

Before I do that...I want to ask this.

I've had experiences, such as loading Office 2010, that after the instal, the activation key wouldn't work...and I had to uninstall it and reinstall it by clicking the icon via right click run as administrator.

So, moving this slider down to '0' will eliminate that?
I guess I'm just confused on how that changes me from a sorta administrator to "THE" administrator...

I'm a nuts and bolts kind of guy and tend to obsess on the details...I like to know the "WHY" of things so...I apologize if the question was actually redundant...lol

it should stop the warring message that you want to change settings, just try it and if it doesn't do what you want you can change it back to were it was.

Thanks.
I'll give that a try.
Will let ya know if that doesn't fix it.
