• Cannot delete programs. Windows 7 says that I am not an administrator.

  I'm trying to delete a program in my laptop.  I am the only user of this laptop and its sole owner.  I get an error message that says that I can not remove the program because I am not an administrator.  It is doubly annoying because I'm unable to install a similar program that I really need to use because I can't remove this program (i.e., I can't install program verizon wireless because I can't uninstall Cricket).

  I have no need of several user accounts (more a user account account administrator) and will not be set up anything like that, no matter what Microsoft is necessary.  With my current setup, which is ONLY AN account with my name (and apparently not an 'administrator' account, whatever that means) how can I remove programs I didn't need?

• I am trying to download a patch for a game on the internet, but whenever I try, a message appears saying that I don't have administrative rights to install a patch. I am the only user of a computer. How can I fix it?

  I tried to use the administrative tools to solve this problem, but nothing seems to think it would work in this situation.

  Floop51,
  Can you let us know which game is that you have problems with?  If so he can help us solve this problem.  I suggest to try two things.  First would be to perform a clean boot and competitions.  Then create a new admin user account, and then test the game for this user.  Here are links to articles on these steps.

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

• My Photos said cannot do an import because it says that I don't have an internet connection, even if I have a?

  Try to download a picture of pictures to the Finder. Pictures says a 'Internet connection is required to get a larger version of the object' (translated from Swedish). I have a connection race and it's working very well for other applications such as Safari.

  Your internet connection migh be too slow and give you errors of time-out due to the large data rate required for a photo.

  As a test try to upload the photo directly from the web page of iCloud to www.icloud.com.  Sign in with your Apple and launch the Photos.app on this page.  Can you upload the photo using Safari in this way?

• I bought Grime Fighter and now I can't open Google or Youtube because FireFox says that they do not have a valid certificate

  I paid $39.00

  I guess you mean Avast Grime Fighter? First of all, any sort of "PC Optimizer" is worthless and you should try to get your money, always, they eventually damage the computers and do anything beneficial that is already built into the OS of the computer.

  That being said, if Firefox does not open Google or Youtube, check and see if the date and time of your computer are set correctly. If you still have questions, please come back.

  Possible Avast is blocking Youtube and google. I strongly suggest to uninstall and use Microsoft Antivirus (Microsoft security essentials, which is actually built into windows 10 If you take advantage of the free update, otherwise you need to download and install).
