User account control comes not when you click on
I have Windows 8 on my computer.
I have parental controls on my computer. This means that I am not an admin, so when I turn on all the programs that require the approval of the UAC, it didn't work. I have disabled UAC thought, it would be useful, but now I can't run anything (pictures, videos) at all. When I try to click on the button of the UAC in the Control Panel, it does nothing. What should I do?
Hi HavocNades,
This problem may occur because of the limited user account authorization. I'm sorry to know that you are facing this problem.
You must connect to an Admin account and make changes accordingly. User Account Control (UAC) notifies you before changes are made to your PC that require administrator-level permissions. By default, UAC is set to warn you as soon as apps try to make changes to your PC.
What are user account control settings?: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/what-are-uac-settings
Response with the State of the question and we will be happy to offer you our help.

Hello
1. don't you make changes before the show?
2. is the computer is joined to the domain controller?
You can not start any application on a client computer that is joined to the domain controller. When you try to start this type of application, you receive an error message similar to the following:
"Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.This can also occur if the user account is damaged. If the computer is not connected to a domain controller, try the following steps.

This site requires a username to be filled in a specific area and in another box, you enter a series of numbers generated by a generator of numbers (so not a password - different series each time that you open a session).
However I do not want my user name appears automatically in the first box. Trying to change that in the security settings (extra-options-security), there is a password section where you can choose any exceptions to the rule of the memory (if the box remember is marked). When clicking the exceptions button, the url of the site I'm talking about is not displayed, and it cannot be entered either, since you can't delete here.
When you click on the option "saved passwords", nor the site, nor the username is listed. I think I've read all the help sections regarding usernames and passwords, but found no solution.
How can I avoid this username (so only a user name - not the usename/password combination), appear in the box?Click on the box, hover over the drop-down menu with your mouse, if you select the word you want to delete, and then press the delete key. If Firefox fills automatically in forms of control

Panels to Spry tab, tabs works not when you click on it
I have a Web site with a tabs inside Panel. When you click the tab, they target is no longer content. I can't see where the error occurred. the site belongs to one of my students, and she put the index.html file in a folder and does not leave it in the directory a root, so I changed a few lines on the page to think where is the file, but I don't see where I need to make changes to get the tabs to work.
Any help would be great. Thank you.

Fine thank you. I took the quotes. I definitley left in when I made the change. I also changed the path to the css file.
The stll tabs do not work in Explorer. I restarted to make sure it wasn't a cached page I saw. I use Explorer 8.
Thanks again for you help. Other thoughts?

If the path is correct for the .js file tabs work. I tested myself.
The above said path your index.html file is in a different folder in the folder root of your site and that the SpryTabbedPanels.js file is in the folder SpryAssets which lies directly in the folder root of your site. If that's where your files it will work. Of course I don't know what you've been hanging out and let down but do it is the best way to break all the links.

Next button doesn't work, not when you click on a question slide
Sorry for the long title.
I have an Adobe Captivate project in which I have a few question slides. I have authorized moving backward and also allowed the user to get a question wrong unlimited times.
However, when the user gets a question slide, if he or she clicks the previous button to return to a slide where I could have just text, clicking the next button I on sliding of the works is no longer. The next button is also configured to be clickable unlimited periods, and the setting is to go to the next slide.
But when going back to this slide and then clicking next to move to the slide in question once again, the next button turns on, but nothing happens.
So what I am doing wrong? :) Thanks in advance!Happiness is finding your own problems.
I went into the preferences of Quiz and success or failure and changed to Inifinite Attemps to the degree of fault. Problem solved!

Merge to Adobe PDF does not when you click on
I need to do a mail merge and send PDF files. I've done several times, but "merge it to Adobe PDF" does nothing now. I called about this before and someone fixed it for me. Hoping you can help! :))
Acrobat DC will give you the same functionality as you have in Acrobat 9, but are compatible with the Win10 and office 2013. You can download a free trial version and check if it works for you before you buy/index. Do not install on a system eval version with existing Acrobat is installed (unless you are ready to reinstall, which may not work in your situation).

While trying to change the folder permissions for a second user on my computer, I did something that I lock my C drive.
When I log in with the administrator account, I get the following popup:
C:\Windows\System32\SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe
Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.I am not able to access denied drive from C to all 'access '.
When I right click on the C drive and select Properties > Security tab > go on, said the popup "cannot open the access control editor. Access is denied. »
When you select Properties > Security tab > advanced > owner tab > continue, current owner says "unable to display current owner. Can not change, cannot be changed.
I can't turn off user account control, nothing happens when I click the icon or the text.
I was able to create the 'hidden' administrator account, but I can't do anything from there, either.
Any suggestions?

Whats stopping me to see my user account control settings?
HiWhen tries to use my scanner hp deskjet 2050 J510, I get a popup of user account control saying: do allow you the following program to make changes to this computer? Program name: scanning HP, verified Publisher: origin of the Hewlett Packard file: hard drive on this computer. Details, program location: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \HP\HP Deskjet 2050 J510 series\bin\HPScan.exe.» When I click Yes, nothing happens. When I try to view my UAC settings I can't view them. When I click on it in user accounts, the window opens but it is empty. Then after a few seconds it disappears. After that a few failed attempts at viewing I get a pop up that says that com Surrogate has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution to the problem. No solution is ever found. Help, please.
This behavior is usually indicative of a virus or Trojan that blocks access to your security settings. If you do not have an antivirus program, or if it has expired, I recommend that you use the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (unique tool that is not 'install') and Microsoft Security Essentials (a current anti-virus program that is free and always will be).

Hello
With Windows 7 Professional 64 bit laptop
I am the 'Standard user' and the only user of my laptop. I don't know if I have an administrator account. I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago). But I remember he was causing Windows always show both accounts and choose one to log-in to. I didn't want no choice since I am the only user of the laptop, so I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.
There are so many programs that I can not open because the user account control box "do allow you the following program to make changes...? The choice of 'Yes' is NEVER highlighted or available - that the choice of the 'no' can be clicked. And the same dialogue box asks also but it is not a place to type the password "Administrator". I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.
And I am referring to all kinds of programs that can not open, as "Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool" that I downloaded from the Microsoft Web site. Or I went into control panel 'User account', but try clicking on 'Change settings User Account Control' brings the same view, "do allow you the following program to make changes to the computer? Or when, on the page of computer system, I can't access 'Advanced System Settings' due to the same dialog box.
How to solve this problem? I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens. I looked through other similar topics here (only Windows 7 partners), and some seek to make changes to the registry. It's very intimidating for me. I'm not a computer scientist at all, but fairly intuitive with the computer. The problem cornered me. Another opinion on a thread is said to use "Fix It". This program is no longer available (we now 2016). I also experienced this problem all this time but am pretty frustrated and wanted to try the job.
Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?
I hope someone can provide some less intimidating process that touch the registry to fix this. I really appreciate it.
Thank you!

I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago).
-> Yes, you did.
I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.
-> It was a bad decision. It was equivalent to throw out your safe master key. There is a much better method to avoid the choice between multiple accounts.
I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.
-> You had an admin password when your first install Windows.
I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens.
-> It takes 30 seconds to remove this choice, without loss of the admin account.
Some seek to make changes to the registry.
-> Hacking the registry does not restore your account admin. 'Fix It' will not fix it either.
Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?
-> Your first step must be to determine what accounts you have and whether they are active. It is done as follows:
- Mark the first line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
- Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
- Marks of the second line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
- Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
- Open the desktop Accounts.txt file, then copy & paste its contents into your answer.
cmd.exe /c users > '% userprofile%\Desktop\Accounts.txt '.
cmd.exe /c net localgroup administrators > '% userprofile%\Desktop\Accounts.txt '.
