How can I get system administrator privledges to uninstall a program

My brother installed a program so I could watch the DVD only I don't want that I do not use it.  My laptop is Vista W7 not, anyone have any ideas how I can completely remove the program.

Also I have AVG 2011 installed and whenever I go to uninstall it fails, any ideas on deleting also appreciated

Hello

read this MS info

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/uninstall-or-change-a-program

  1. Open programs and features by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click programs, and then click programs and features.

  2. Select a program and then click on uninstall. Some programs include the ability to modify or repair the program in addition to uninstall. but many simply offer the option uninstall. To change a program, click on change or repair. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

AVG its own program uninstaller, if necessary

  • How can I get system administrator control/permission to update my drivers

    During the process of updating my drivers (windows 7) using a dialog box said I needed permission of the system administrator to download updates... the Driver Detective software? I've never heard talk of such a thing... knew I had Administrator status but I can't understand this one... little help would be greatly appreciated.

    Never use these "dubious" software  Driver Detective will cause problems and can "control" of your systoem 'management '.  You're better off 'uninstall '.

    Why people think that motorists are "constant" updates on the 'land'.  If the equipment works properly, do not fix it.  There is only one category of drivers that you need to "revise" for periodic updates.  If you are using an nVidia or AMD (ATi) video card, you should consider a 'manual' update (you control when starting it has updated) of these video card drivers.

  • How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    OT: Without administrator rights.

    I don't have my active administrator account.

    I had a user account that I removed myself from the group administrator.

    Now I'm locked to do anything.

    I can't assign me to the admin group, I can't allow the user to administrator, I can't edit some files or delete some software...

    I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

    I can't open the recovery mode, tried to start in safe mode and all the rest.

    How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    I had a user account, which I removed myself from the group administrator.

    -> This is called "paint yourself in a corner.

    I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

    -> Is normal. Either you are an administrator, or you're not.

    How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    -> Ask a friend to burn a CD repair system for you (Control Panel / backup and restore). Now to use this CD to start the machine in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore to set Windows to a point before you downgrade your one and only the admin account.

    When you're done, plan ahead a little and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

    Type administrator access

    Next time put please the details of your question in the body of the message instead of the subject line.

    With a used computer recommended is to do a clean install. This is particularly important with a former domain member machine since several strategies group defined on the server will be "tattooed" on the system and make it very difficult to use as a home machine.

    http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Reinstalling_Windows

    If you are unable or refuse to do it (not recommended), you will need to use NTpasswd to change the password for the local administrator to white. Then connect and separate the machine from the network. Create a new user account for yourself and remove any domain user profile. This will not remove policy group that are tattooed and m ost companies also set a default restrictive profile so if that was the case in your user accounts new cases will also be limited.

    Download the bootable CD .iso image file, burn with third-party burning software such as free ImgBurn , Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Start with the media that you have created. You need to maybe change the boot order in the BIOS or obtain a menu of boot command temporary with the pressure of a special key. NTpasswd will run. Follow the instructions carefully.

  • How can I get a recovery CD without all the programs pre-installed on A85?

    My father spent $800 on a laptop Toshiba A85 (June 2005). His laptop computer has been running slowly most of the time, I made 3 re - installed for him it did not help, it is OK for the first month, but it starts to crawl when starting and simple tasks like opening explore seem to take forever.

    I'm very angry with Toshiba they put all these DEMOS programs preinstalled on your laptop AND the recovery CD. This is not good!. The user has no CHOICE about this. Why Don t Toshiba provide these demos on a CD and let the user decide who he wants on his laptop!

    I was lucky that I had a Windows XP CD (which came with my PC at home), I tried to install it and it helped a lot! But a few months later, her laptop is slow again. It takes 5 minutes to start and he is on all fours!

    I did the usual things - chkdsk, defrag, norton, adware etc...

    Is there a hardware flaw with Toshiba laptops? I noticed other people complain about speed?

    His old office 700 MHz is faster!

    I complained to the technical support of Toshiba (USA) on all pre-installed applications on the recovery CD, but they say they could not do anything for me. They said that a "Windows XP CD is a CUSTOM option and you should have specified that when you bought the laptop" - WELL WELL HOW ARE CLIENTS SUPPOSE KNOWLEDGE what before to BUY the laptop?

    What did the Toshiba is not fair. They must have contributed money for all of these applications on the laptop, but it does not help the user it!

    OS running slow is incumbent not only on the laptop to the manufacturer, but much more on the user itself. I agree that some things about the recovery image is absolutely useless, but you can simply remove the system everything you think you don t need.

    No you don't have to have on your system. Remove everything simply. Another problem is the user himself. I know many users who install each software garbage as possible and then wonder if the system is soft.

    I recommend you to check what antivir software you use because many of them slow OS and take too long in the beginning. Also check the list of startup items. Many of them are not important at the start and can be launched separately if necessary.

    Google, a little bit and you will find many useful articles how system run faster.
