How to remove programs, as an administrator, on a basic user account?

We have remote users in our society, and I'm not able to distance in their PC.  Therefore, we normally set up a WebEx session, to install the software.  This isn't a problem.  However, if I need to remove software, I encountered a problem.  I tried to "Run as Administrator", but it does not work, and I can't ask me administrator credentials.  Is there anyway to remove programs without be signed as my Admin account?

Thank you!

  • How to run a program as an administrator on a standard user account without be prompted for the password

    I have this software that doesn't work correctly than if you run it as administrator.  When you run it as administrator on the standard user account, it asks you the password.  How you turn off the prompt for password for that one software only? Or how you also run a software Administrator without being prompted to enter a password?

    Thanks for your help.

    Matt,

    Since you don't have a Vista Home Premium, I found another article that describes a way to get around it to make a registry change.

    The following Web site:
    http://www.eCoustics.com/PCW/HOWTO/140134

    Vista Home Premium is not the Group Policy Editor. To make the changes in this version, you must change the registry. Before making any changes to the registry, back it up following the instructions in "block Cookies for spying, but keep the most useful" (scroll down to the area of blue text at the bottom of the page).

    With your backup of the registry in place, click Start, type regedit and press ENTER. In the tree on the left pane, navigate to Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. With the icon system selected in the left pane, double-click on ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin in the right pane. Change the data value to 0, then click on OK. You should see the effect immediately (no restart required).

    Not sure if this will help, but thought that I have it send your way.

    Thank you

    How to remove programs from the system tray without removing them from the startup on Windows XP folder?

    Hello

    The first step is to identify the program that represents the icon and decide whether it should be in the system tray (most are not necessary). Hold the cursor of the mouse on the icon to see the name of the program that launches the icon.

    The best bet is to click the icon to see if this opens the box of the program options. If so, look for a selection similar to "remove from the system tray.

    Alternatively, you can hide the icons in the system tray.

    Here's how:

    1. right click on the taskbar and select "Properties".

    2. in the "Notification area" click "Hide inactive icons" if she already unchecked and then click on the button "Customize".

    3. click on the ' column next to each of your current behavior and choose one of the three behaviors for each program icon that appears in the system tray: "Hide when it is idle," "Always hide", or "always show".»

    If you hide an icon, but then see it again the next time that you log on to Windows, you may need to uninstall the program to permanently remove the icon. Uninstall the program permanently removes the program from your computer. For more information, see Uninstall or change a program.

    How to remove programe files that remain in the registry after I uninstalled these programs?
    I uninstalled Nero 8 on my system (Windows Vista Edition home premium, 64-bit dell 1737 studio system); but several Nero files are always stuck in my registry. How can I remove them without destabilizing the system? Thank you.

    Yes, Nero is a software that I hate. I liked Nero until 6 version, I think, but after the Version 8 and 9, it was pathetic.

    2 years ago I had uninstalled a lot of software and there were many many registry entries obsolete - when a search I found that a member of a forum on the Web recommend CCleaner.

    Used from 2 years - each time without making registry backups. He never did wrong with my two PC - Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1 (previously Windows 7 RTM).

    The registry cleaner is fantastic.

    In which case you can try it, here's the download link.

    WARNING: Installation be sure to uncheck the installation of Google Chrome options.

    CCleaner automatically prompts you to create backups of registry before she cleans up the registry. The choice is totally yours.

  • 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.

    I need of more memory, I can't afford to buy it, how to remove stuff to create more memory and how do I know what programs are ok to remove

    I think you're confusing terms and certainly confuse us.

    RAM/memory (they are identical) is the memory on the computer that is used by programs running as a temporary store for data.  How to reduce the amount of memory used is to close unnecessary programs or does not work as much.  for example close the browser and your e-mail so that the execution of Word program.  You do not need to uninstall programs, run just not, to save memory.

    IF you talk about not having enough disk space to store your programs and data, then the way to increase the free space on the disc IS to uninstall unnecessary programs - only you can decide what programs you don't need.  One way to increase disk space is to make sure you have emptied your Recycle Bin to delete the old data files, you don't want to, and uninstall programs.

    You need to tell us exactly what error messages you get so that we can determine what your problem is.

    Use your Windows repair CD to start the computer in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore to set Windows to the Restore Point as soon as you can find. The chances are that this will be a point before they changed the password.

    Hi il898,

    This can also occur if the installation files are broken or missing for the program which may be reason for the program does not appear in uninstall a program from the list.

    I suggest that you run the program to install the program again and check if you get an option to uninstall the program and try to uninstall the program.
    If it still does not uninstall the program, and then try to reinstall the program and uninstall afterwards.

    I hope this helps!
