Cannot remove the run as administrator by a program icon option

Hi, I'm under Windows 7 Home Premium on a PC clean.  I had a problem with a program so I put for run as administrator (the icon properties, box to checked for run as administrator).  The icon of the program now has the emblem shield on it.

I have problems to remove this option.  Even if the option is unchecked under properties, the shield remains on the slopes of the icon and stills as administrator.

I also uninstalled the program, reinstalled AND the shield is back :-(

Can someone help me remove the option so that the program will run again in normal mode... NOT administrator mode.

What about Paul

Hi brispaul

We would like to know the name of the program that has the problem.

You can probably go to the location of programs where it is installed and remove the current shortcut and create a new shortcut from the source file.

By default, all the programs installed on your computer are listed in C: Program files

Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • How can I enable the "Run as Administrator" install a program in Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium

    Hello

    I am trying to install a backup program on my computer. I am the administrator and the only user of this computer. When I right click to install the program I do not get the "run as Administrator" option, but install. (For this program only all others I get "Run as Administrator".) After changing the UAC I still could not install. I then installed 'Take Ownership' in the menu, but still can not install the program because that supposedly, I do not have the necessary privileges. Then I contacted the manufacturer of the program and told me...

    Based on the problem that you are experiencing, it is a possible solution, we have tried before.

  • error message "Windows cannot remove the password. "Password policy or account require the account has a password.

    I am trying to remove a user administrator account or remove the password and I get the error message below.

    Someone has put a policy on your machine to enforce some rules for passwords. Best is to ask that person to change these rules for you. Alternatively, you can run gpedit.msc, then follow this path to edit yourself: Local computer policy / Computer Configuration / Windows settings / security settings / account policy / password policy.

    Note also that:
    -You cannot delete the built-in Administrator account.
    -Administrator with a blank password accounts is a big security risk.

  • Windows 7, cannot remove the burn files after back to the top

    I have a 64 bit Windows 7 laptop. A year ago I started a return upwards to put on a disc. The backup failed at the time because I ran out of records to put on (had no idea that it would take as much!).

    Since then I tried to delete these temporary burn files from the F drive, but every time I click on the option, it breaks down and wrote files are used by another program. I went through and individually deleted most of them, but I still have a few huge to get the judgment and cannot remove the program (86), or on the desktop to the top, mean that they are used by another program.

    I burned a CD of all these left during the backup of files and that worked, but the files are still sitting in my drive F, I still can't delete the temporary versions... its taking a lot of space and I got the bsod a couple of times.

    I also tried folder in the start menu and delete the temporary files in this way, but it did not result in the F drive.

    I tried to rename the temporary files so that I could remove them too, but not to chance it.

    I have disc clean up all the time, this doesn't always help with the F drive.

  • Vista Business 64 running Lightroom 2.0 cannot remove the FreeAgent Go USB external disk images

    I use an external drive FreeAgent Go USB for image storage. I have a XP machine who has no problem using Adobe Lightroom 2.0 for the deletion of images in the reader.  When I use my laptop with Vista Business 64 and run the same scenario with Lightroom to remove images, I don't want to, I get an error that does not allow me to delete.  I can download them to the desktop from the laptop and I'll be able to delete them then, but not directly from the external hard drive.  Is there a way I can do this using my Vista based computer laptop, or what I always switch the drive to my XP to achieve?  Thanks for your help.

    This error message only your getting EXACTLY (Word for Word)?  Have you checked the Vista Compatibility Center to make sure that Lightroom 2.0 and the FReeAgent Go USB drive are compatible with 64-bit Vista http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/Search.aspx?type=Hardware&s=FreeAgnet%20Go&page=2.  I could find several FreeAgent Go drives (I'm not sure you have) and all I saw were compatible, but I couldn't find Lightroom 2.0 (so maybe that's the problem - simply because that isn't on the list doesn't mean it is not compatible - only that is has not been tested and that often means it can be a problem).

    Have your tried using the standard Windows Explorer to erase the images of the player?  That work, or is it a problem there too?  If Windows Explorer cannot delete images, then try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.  I know you prefer to use Lifghtroom, but I am trying to determine if it is possible that the Vista computer delete files from the external HARD drive without using Lightroom to see if the problem is with Vista or Lightroom.

    I hope this helps.  Let me know how it goes and what these error messages.

    Good luck!

  • Cannot remove the XP user account

    This is a limited account that I need is no longer. I already deleted the password. Everything else works fine. I use a good antivirus and scan for viruses and spyware regularly. I'm the only user on the computer, so I don't know what could be the problem. I have no other problems at all. However, when I log on as an administrator and try to delete this unused account my computer just hangs. I get an error message "not responding". I get the same result if I choose "keep files" or delete files. I deleted the unused accounts of my computer before without problem. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

  • Cannot remove the modem driver

    I can't delete the driver for my modem 105 BT travel as it says I need administrative permissions. It's screwing up my Outlook Express XP.

    I want to remove the driver because I recently went wi fi. I get messages in Outlook Express it can't find the box and think it's because it is confused with the two modem & wi fi drivers.

    The existence in your computer the driver for an old DSL modem is probably NOT the cause of your problem of OE.

    On the other hand, part of BT to uninstall instructions (see link below) appeal to you run two BT applications on the CD supplied with your modem (remid and Doctor105).  I don't know what they're doing, but at least the latter seems to make some changes in the Windows registry.  The name of the former ("remid") suggests that some 'identification' is 'removed', so I guess it is possible you may have problems connecting to the Internet using another device without removing this 'id'.

    You can use a web browser (IE, Firefox, etc) to surf the Internet?  If so, your computer is 'find' belong to the net via your wifi connection, and it doesn't seem likely that any vestige of the old installation of modem would affect OE but not your web browser.

    You can either post the full error or messages of OE here or (for a better chance of a solution) in theNetworking, Mail, and getting online forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/xpnetwork/threads

    I tried to uninstall via the control panel and all programs for the 105 modem entry. I have permissions on this computer and have just checked. When I try this I get the following

    Error loading newdev.dll

    then I press cancel and down administration administrative privileges are required to install, uninstall, or configure the DSL software.

    You have disconnected the Voyager 105 modem?  If so, perhaps it is the cause of your difficulty.  BT uninstall directions are here; Note step 3 ("Please do not disconnect the blue modem USB cable until you are prompted"): http://www.voyager.bt.com/selfhelp/shc/usbuninstall/105_uninstall_win.htm

    Of course, that boards do not unplug the modem until you are prompted are contradicted by advice of BT here:http://www.voyager.bt.com/selfhelp/shc_usb.htm

    So, if you already tried to uninstall with the connected modem and received the newdev.dll error, disconnect the modem and try again.

    The usual method of dealing with uninstall problems is to reinstall the software, and then try uninstalling again.  From what I've seen, this has probably won't work for you.

    I saw several messages regarding this issue, much, but not all, associated with the BT Voyager 105.  Most of the positions is unanswered; Some suggest you uninstall IE 8; but the following post seems the most promising:

    http://www.hmmm.IP3.co.UK/BT-Voyager-105-Newdev-dll-error.shtml

    I think that the issue is really something in BT installation instead of file of Microsoft newdev.dll files (note the contradictory comments at the end of the web page above).  Normally, I would not recommend downloading a dll file, but I scanned the ago today (you should also, if you decide to download) and it seems to be malware free.  Just make sure that you copy the newdev.dll file that is currently in C:\Windows\system32 (which should be version 5.1.2600.5512 or perhaps later) to a safe place (for example, your desktop computer) and replace it when you are finished.

    If using the old newdev.dll file works for you, follow the additional steps of the BT uninstall directions above.
