Cannot turn on UAC and can't change my Standard user to administrator

I get a few programs my laptop girls, which is Vista Home Edition, and now I can't open the UAC.  I followed the Panel, accounts of users, enable UAC, but it does nothing.  I can no longer to update adobe flash player.  He repeats to me that I have permission to admin, but I have in the past.  I also believe that used to be his administrator account, but now it's Standard user.  I have a security package installed on our computer to our internet provider.  I'm so frustrated.  I have some knowledge of computers, but the answers that I find are those prior right and none of these help.

Of course, I removed or disabled something and now am having these problems.  I don't know what I did wrong.

Please someone help before my brain explodes trying to understand this.

Thank you very much.

Linda

Thank you for your answers and I tried everything, but in the end I had to reinstall windows vista.  It was my only option.

  • How can my computer change a standard user to an administrator in itself?

    I have three sons. Yesterday, I noticed that the user account for them had been changed from Standard user to administrator. This son don't know how to make such a change, even if he had Admin rights. It happened several times in the past, and after correcting, it happens again.

    Today, I discovered that the accounts of two of my sons have been modified by the Standard user to administrator. Why is this happening? How the computer can change the type of account alone?

    I checked the status of user account control, and the cursor is on "notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer.

    Windows 7 gives me fits in too many areas.

    I login or Administrator status seems to be granted just like my wife.

    You searched for ' add days?

    You must write a custom for this JavaScript calculation because you cannot add a number any date. Also the date strings are not just a number, even if we can convert a given date in a number for that date that represents the time form a date date (Epoch). Witn this value, we can achieve them all kinds of date calculations and collect a little information about the date. JavaScirpt uses midnight on January 1, 1970 UTC for starting point or the date of the time. Its value is zero, and every millisecond increases the value of 1. When a date string is converted to the date object JavaScirpt we have access to many properties of the date and can use several methods to extract information or adjust the date object.

    Field 1 is in the format "Date" with a format of "mm/dd/yy".

    Field 2 is in «Number» format with 0 decimal.

    Zone 3 is in the format 'None '. The custom calculation script applies to the formatting.

    var cField1 = this.getField("Field_1").valueAsString;

    var cField2 = this.getField("Field_2").valueAsString;

    Event.Value = "";

  • How can I change the standard account on behalf of Administrator without administrator privileges?

    Original title: uac is restricting my access Add or change account

    My uac has no opition for Yes just not how to change my standard account to administrator account

    and how would I do that I deleted my hidden administrator account and my off my guest account so if I didn't change anything, I have to be an administrator if he allows me to have Yes tab revealed to a click...

    When you say that you moved your hidden administrator account, are you talking about the account named "Administrator"? Since it is a built-in account, Windows won't let you remove it.

    If you are referring to your own admin account then removing would be to throw out your safe master key. I can't quite work on how you could do that, but you can get it from this reckless action as follows:
    1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    7. Configure Windows to a point before you did what you did.
    8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

    original title: darn childrenI

    I recently had to spend money to have a password reset and to establish myself as an administrator of the machine.  I find I have been circumvented, however, and am now relegated to 'standard user', preventing parental control instead of applied.  How did do it? and how can I, short to wrest from the computer (what I did) restore my admin status?

    We run vista.

    No, you're right.  My point was that I should have created while I still had the power. but I did not dumped.

    2 suggestions...

    1. take your child to the computer, tell him to change your user account to the administrator account while you watch. It is the one who started the mess, make the child facing the music.
    After you're back as an administrator, you can now look at what is a "strong" password and CHANGE your password.

    2. If you are unable to run the routine 'tough love', take your computer to your RELIABLE computer store and the set.

    We cannot help you switch user account to the account admin unless you have the admin password that apparently you have more. We can, in the worst scenario, excluded from this forum if we show you how to do it without admin password.
