blocked from adding software due to the Administrator setting

I work from my computer at home and try to download my all in one printer.  When I insert the disc to start the download of the printer an error saying ' you don't have administrator rights for such action.  I am the only user on the computer and the one password on the logon screen.  What should I do to change the administrator rights for my office?

Right-click on the setup.exe > run as admin.

See you soon.

  • The program is blocked by group policy, you contact the administrator

    original title: group policy

    I get an error when I try to play legally purchased game just cause 2

    the program is blocked by the foundations of the group, contact your administrator

    I have legal win 7 ultimate

    I don't know where or how or why this restriction is in Group Policy (you are on a domain network or is it a computer sttand-only or only connected to an ad hoc network).  If connected to a domain, the restriction may be from the server in which case you need to talk to the server administrator to understand why it is there and if it can be removed.

    If it is a home network or a stand-alone computer, access you group policy editor by going to start / search box and type in the Group Policy Editor, and then double-click on the icon for the program that apppears.  You will now be in the editor.  That is the problem - there is no way to search for the Publisher, so essentially you must check all entries to find the one that is blocking you.  On my system, no policy was in place by default, so I don't know how your got policies implemented - but if she says that group policy is causing this program is the solution.  I wish there were an easier way, but I know not at all.

    Sometimes blocks of security software programs by using Group Policy, so it is possible, this is how it happened--unfortunately, it does not help us find the location of the block, so it can be deleted.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Software works for the administrator, but not for other users.

    I installed the software on a Vista laptop this morning as an administrator.  Software works perfectly under administrator.  When you sign in as a user, the program opens but cannot perform functions due to read/write permissions. It crashes the program.  When you look at the folder where the program and data are stored - this user seems to have all the permissions.
    Because it appears that the user has full rights to the folder where the program is located, is there another place that a setting needs to be adjusted?  Is there something about "inherited" permissions of the user miss them us?
    Can you provide steps for the opening of this user account?

    Hello

    You get the error message? If Yes, what is the full and exact error message?

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to follow these steps and check if it works:

    a. right click on the program.

    b. click on run as administrator.

  • How to connect a scanner of network including the Windows 7 firewall is blocking and adding an exception for the associated program to access the scanned files has no effect?

    Hello

    I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and the process for adding some of my old material has been an interesting question. Who made me stuck is to be able to access my network scanners "mailboxes shared" in order to recover my scans.

    The product in question is a large format Xerox 6204 printer/scanner. The installation process for the basic print server run the 6204 as a network printer went relatively smoothly and seems to work as expected. However, the problem arises when I want to use the functionality of scan of the 6204. Scans are stored in mailbox store ' ' on the 6204 and must be retrieved by a piece of software Xerox called "wide Format Scan Service. This program essentially connects to mailboxes mailbox via the IP address of the 6204 on the network and from there should allow me to download the scans on my Windows 7 computer. Unfortunately, in order to connect to the mailbox store I am currently disable the firewall of Windows 7 altogether.

    I tried to add the Service to Scan large Format to the list of allowed programs, which gives an "impossible to connect to 6204' error. I tried to add the program to inbound and outbound rules manually, even though my experience with this is limited, with the same error. So leave the default settings in the wizard, I also tried to use the technical netstat to find out what are the ports, the software used and adding them to specific ports in the properties of the rules - all without success.

    For now, I'm stuck the point of having to run my installation of Windows 7 without a firewall to use my scanner large format, which is obviously an undesirable situation. If anyone can offer help or advice on how I can solve this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

    A couple of things...

    -If you have an Apple laptop or desktop, with a software update system, so there is no way to 'install iCloud Drive' to this topic as it is already there as a function of iCloud.

    -remove the iCloud (app) drive icon on your iPhone will do nothing.

  • Download cffile - error due to the security setting

    Try to download any file using cffile download to a hosted Web site generates the CFCATCH errors:

    Access denied message(java.io.FilePermission C:\CFusionMX61\runtime\servers\default\SERVER-INF\temp\ wwwroot-tmp lu \neotmp38260.tmp)
    Type Security

    The download works fine on my test MX7 Server and seems to be the result of a share of the hosting company server upgrade as the download of cffile is knocked out also on other sites I have with the same hosting company.

    The error seems to occur at the place where the coldfusion server stores the file to download in a .tmp temporary file in a temporary folder before passing on the destination folder in the right format to .doc that is.

    My impression is that it is a simple permission problem but the host insists that there is no restraint on this download. Has anyone encountered this before?

    A large part of the obligation for any assistance.

    Tony D

    In fact, I spoke too soon. Download of cffile works after upgrade to MX7 so maybe the host said it straight when they called their MX6.1 server a bit of a 'small '.

    A friend just to configure the settings of the administrator on the computer that I use, it also added a Passport Network account on behalf of user xp MyWindowsApp. I just want to know if he added himself. and why is my cursor a black block extended.

    Hello Anshul230499,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    If a download was interrupted in the Mac App Store, then whenever you have new Internet download should then restart.

    If a download application is interrupted

    Once an Internet connection is restored, your purchased downloads should restart automatically. The Mac App Store may warn you that there is a problem with the download and ask if you want to restart downloads. Confirming will restart all pending downloads.

    Download time may vary according to the size of the file and the speed of your Internet connection. See this article on purchases made on iTunes Store for more information on the time to download large files.

    Troubleshooting the Mac App Store

    Take care.

    Pls help.
    Thank you

    Good afternoon @Wogla777,.

    It is a great location for extra support! I see you are having problems installing the printer software. I'd be happy to help you.

    I have provided with steps to unlock the hidden administrator account and the installation of the printer on this account to see if this will help this situation.

    Note: Do not connect the USB cable until you are prompted during the installation.

    • Go to your Start menu and in the box "search programs and files", type CMD.
    • CMD will fill as an option to search above, just right-click on it and "run as Administrator".
    • Once opens in CMD (command prompt), type net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.
    • Then, close CMD and then restart your computer.
    • When your computer is on the newspaper in the new account which should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it.
    • If your computer automatically connects to your account after the restart then go to your Start menu and click on the arrow next to 'shutdown' and choose 'change user '. Now log on to the administrator account, that we have just released.
    • Under the administrator account, install the printer software.
    • Test the printer.
    • To disable the Admin account start at step 1 and type net user administrator / active: No..

    If you still experience this issue, it may be the user's profile. Create a new user and try to install the printer on this account.

    • Open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.
    • Click on manage another account.
    • Click on create a new account.
    • Install the printer on this account.

    Hello

    a. how long have you been faced with this problem?
    b. any recent hardware/software changes made on your computer?
    c. you are trying to install applications/programs from your administrator account?

    Right-click on the configuration file and select run as administrator (you can also use the same step to run also installed programs). Now, check if that helps.

    You can also try to enable disable User Account Control (UAC) and check if that helps. After return to status.

    Note: Enable UAC after verification.

    User Account Control (UAC) can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. UAC notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer or can affect settings for other people who use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC to help your computer course.

  • Need to enter the administrator password before I can download the software upgrade

    I found I need to install an upgrade of the software, but cannot do without an ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD ... which I don't have (or I had not one when I implemented that stand-alone pc, or I forgot whether I don't have an administrator password to use).

    Can someone tell me how to find what it is, how to change it, or how to make my normal "logon" Administrator status (without having to set an administrator password, because that's the problem I have).

    I tried various methods, but everyone tells me that I need the ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD and so I'm stuck.

    I've seen a lot of suggestions for the windows password (which I guess is different for the ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD), because none of the suggestions for this work without an administrator password.

    Hello Jules.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

    1. is the issue specific to the installation of software updates?
    2. what troubleshooting have you done when you say, 'I have tried different methods?

    Thank you for details on the question and your efforts to resolve.

    This problem may occur either if the user account control settings can not correct because of where it stops installation or there is a problem with the registry keys that control the installation of a program.

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:
    Run this Microsoft fixit and check.
    Reference:
    The problems that the programs cannot be installed or uninstalled
    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall

    If this does not help, use method 2.

    Method 2:
    Disable user account control and then try to install the software updates.
    Reference:
    Disable UAC in Windows 8
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hyperyash/archive/2012/07/18/disabling-user-account-control-in-Windows-8.aspx

    Important notes:

    Control (UAC) user account can help you to prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. It works by asking permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings affecting other users. We do not recommend disable user account control. If you turn it off, you must reactivate as soon as possible.

    Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
