Administrator settings "Dave" <davidj92[ at ]wowway.com> 12/25/2008 6:38:44 PM I started using Windows Vista Home Premium 64 recently and set it up with me as the single user. Sometimes when I try to install a program, especially something from MS like the add-on for Windows Media Player, or change something I get a message saying I don't have Administrative Privileges so I can't proceed. I've searched the help files and MS documents but can't find an answer for this. I'm willing to set up an Administrator and switch to it if I have to but can't find info on how to do this either. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance, Dave

Re: Administrator settings Brink <guest[ at ]unknown-email.com> 12/25/2008 7:26:17 PM Hello Dave, When you get this message, right click on the installation file and click on "Run as administrator". This should allow it to install afterwards. Hope this helps, Shawn Dave;919972 Wrote: > I started using Windows Vista Home Premium 64 recently and set it up > with me > as the single user.
