Why do I get a user account on each startup control box?

Whenever I open Firefox, a small window pops up, and the home page will not appear until I'm on the window.

It is headed "user account control". A line said: "a program needs your permission to continue". Then he said: "If you started this program, continue."

Then he said: 'Firefox Software Updater ".

                     Mozilla Corporation"

At the bottom is a button for more details and to continue and cancel.

-> Run as administrator

Check and tell if its working.

  • Get fast user account control

    Original title: a shortcut, I have long used now I request "do allow you the following program to make changes to this computer?" when I click it. How is this happen and how do I do stop asking me?

    Here's the situation:

    (1) I have a shortcut icon for "go to my pc" on my desktop. I could always click here and download my login screen (I use Gotomypc daily for work).

    (2) recently my updates Windows upgraded my IE 9 to 10 IE without asking to tell me. I didn't like it and it wasn't compatible with my printer, so I came here, discovered how to get rid of the upgrade and re - download the previous version.

    (3) I wanted to avoid leaving Windows pass me again, so I fiddled around so that Windows has asked me before it updated again.

    I don't really know what I was doing, I was just trying my best. I'm not really all that tech savvy.

    (4) now, whenever I click on my thumb for the icon of my pc, a message appears asking "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? It says 'User Account Control' on the top bar, it pings and I have to click Yes to continue. This annoys me and I can't understand what it takes to make it go back to the way it was. I also note that the icon has a small checkered blue top and yellow badge which did not previously exist.

    (5) I tried to remove the shortcut icon, and download it again, but it just comes back the same way.

    Please help - tell me what I need to do to remove the icon for this control of user account control. I am the 'administrator', why can't tell it what to do?

    PS - I didn't know really what "about Windows" to choose! This is probably in the wrong place...

  • How to get a user account who disappeared?

    I created a limited user account for my son, and when I am connected to my computer the next day, my owner account was gone.  Where it's going and how do I get it back?

    Hi DoodyDave,

    Do you mean that you can not see the name of the account in the home screen? Log on to your system as administrator (press ALT CTRL DEL, twice at the Welcome screen).

    Now click on start-> Run Type &-> Regedit-> ok.

    Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE-> Microsoft-> Windows NT-> CurrentVersion-> Winlogon-> SpecialAccounts-> UserList

    Double-click the name of your account, and set the value to 1.

    When the computer reboots, you will get your account name in the Welcome screen.

    I hope this helps.

  • 'File name' is locked for editing by 'Client', why not show the correct user account

    A .xls file created by MS Excel 2003 and saved on the server files (Windows Server 2008 R2 without Service Pack).

    We have two users: A and c. accounts of A and C join same above file server's domain. A approval of the admin on the server, C is a common user. The version of MS Excel on the pc is 2010, although it is 2003 for C.

    C tries to open a file on the server and it has the change permission on the file and the file, however, the file is locked for editing by 'administrator '. For the moment, no one opens this file, so which is 'Administrator'?

    More tests:

    (1) once A open file C is reached, there is message: file is locked for editing by 'Client', so why shows 'Client' instead of a correct domain account?

    (2) after C opens the file and then A is reached, there is message: file is locked for a domain C user account. So it seems OK.

  • After that Win7 SP1 firefox Gets a user account control prompt every time I open it.

    After installing the windows 7 service pack 1 update, whenever Firefox is started I am invited guest UAC (User Account Control) to ask my permission because he will try to make changes. My UAC setting is enabled by default and reinstall the latest version of Firefox (3.6.13) does not alleviate the problem.

    Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.

    Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".

    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that this level of privilege: "Run this program as an administrator" is not selected.

    You should also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

  • Is it possible to get a user account and all the files associated with it if it has been deleted?

    My fiance's brother thought he was doing us a favor of the deletion of a user account that we use too often.  I always use it because it has pictures on what we use a main user account is not.  I am panicing because I fear that these photos were lost.  Is there a way I can restore it?

    External USB hard disks costing less than USD 90 for 1.5 TB or more - I do not understand how people lose data these days.

    You * might * be able to recover all or part of the files by using an application like Recuva (it's a link, it's free, do not buy anything).

    Because you posted in Windows XP - Start searching files in C:\Documents and Settings\ - in particular directory from the old username (which was probably completely deleted.

    The machine is used, less you will recover anything.

    Whatever the results - I suggest buy you a form any external backup and schedule a periodic and consistent backup that you can go in situations like this.

  • How can I get additional user accounts get rid as I am the only person who uses my computer?

    I'm the only user on my computer, so I am also administrator.  I don't want to deal with all the extra files created between User1 and administrator.  How to become just the Administrator without additional user?

    Don't use NO Windows 7 with a single account. In Windows 7, the built-in Administrator account is disabled by default, and although it is possible to allow, this process may be beyond what you feel comfortable with.
    WHEN, and not IF you have problems to access your user account, you will have considerable problems if you don't have a SINGLE account to use.
     
    You need to forget about something to do with XP and create a user with administrator privileges, account (let's call him Admin or similar) and give it a password. Keep this account for access to emergency and for elevation purposes. Then change your account to a Standard user account. (There is absolutely no need to run as administrator on a daily basis in Windows 7, Windows 7 has the function of 'right-click-Run as Administrator "when you need administrator privileges). You'll be much safer and better protected than that.

    Need help to access the Panel Associations value so I can open the docs have no association, according to the error message that I receive

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    You need a program on your system to open these documents (file types), and the program must be associated with the file type. Go to start / Default programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program and scroll down to the types of files of these documents.  Can the default program open this type of file or the file type is same?  If this isn't the case, you will need to install a software that can read and open possibly work with the types of files in question.  Exactly which types of files you can not read (what are their extensions - the three digit after the name of the file identifier). ?  If you do not see the extension, go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / View / and uncheck Hide extensions of known and then file types try to look at the files again.

    Please post back with results or if you have other issues (as may have answered your question).

  • Error message "unable to make changes to parental controls settings. If the problem persists, see your system administrator"when you set parental controls for a user account

    Original title: user account with an effort of parental control

    After logging in to my admin account, I created two user accounts for my children, set up parental controls for both that I created, when I tried to set up the third account that he would allow me to activate parental control.

If the problem persists, see your system administrator. I close the window, and then open the parental controls for other accounts, and they work very well, allows me the chance to change. I deleted the third account several times, making sure to create on behalf of others, just like I did the first two. Still no luck. Can I have only 3 total accounts? My administrator account and standard users 2.

  • User names found using the command run "control userpasswords2" do not match my user accounts

    Hello, on the #4 computer, when I use the command run, I get a list of 4 users. A, B, C, and comments.
    When I look in Control Panel I see 4 users, A, C, D and comments.
    When I go to C\:Users I see B, C, D and comments.
    I have problems with this computer #4, I get access denied, check the spelling, error code 8007005 0 x.
    All of these accounts should not match in computer #4?

    On my 3 other computers that can network with each other the results of the run command, results of the Panel control and C:\User results all correspond to A, C, D and are same as seen in Control Panel of the computer #4 comments.

    I think that the problem lies in computer #4 and is linked to the user names/accounts do not match. 4 computers user accounts all corresponding in Control Panel, so no problems.

    I finally thought to it. They wore all the user names that came when I ran the command "control userpasswords2". As I said in my original post, user names in all the names of the Panel user control over all matching computers. The only conflict I've had was in the list of user names in the list found when I ran "control userpasswords2". I went to highlight the 'B' account after that I ran the command, you click Properties and changed his name to 'A'. This solved my access denied problem once and for all. Apparently he does not have all of the accounts in the control panel.

  • Windows 10 continues to change user account controls

    Why windows done 10. change user account controls, it's extremely annoying. Whenever I reboot it disables it, which blocks all applications. Why he won't stay where I leave it?

    While I can only say that malware has installed a utility that removes the UAC setting when Windows loading [in the hope that you don't notice the change, and that malicious software can therefore go further by installing other malware without bringing a challenge Admin dialog box].  This problem was reported some time ago and finally diagnosed as a symptom of malware - see Windows 7 UAC (user access control) is disabled on every reboot

    In addition to a full scan with your antivirus installed utility, download and run a scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free [MBAM].  It is much more difficult for malware to hide its presence of two scanners different antimalware.  MBAM can exist alongside other anti-malware utilities, so it won't be a problem.

    Of course, it could be an anomaly in the system instead, but it's not that I've seen reported in this forum before.  Windows has no integrated procedure that changes the setting of the UAC, so it is difficult to envisage any procedure through to cause this symptom.

    Please specify the operating system you are using and use blue change control under your question of re - categorize it as a matter of Windows if necessary 10.

    Good luck

  • User account fails - temporary profile load when you try to connect

    Hello

    I need help. Since today, I can not connect to my windows user account, an administrator account. When I start the computer, available user accounts (two) are correctly displayed with pictures profile, but when I try to connect to mine the log in procedure takes almost ten minutes and, eventually, windows cannot load my profile and gives me a temporary profile in place with just the default settings.

    How can I get my user account to the service? (Restarting the computer does not help, signing on the temporary account in order to login to my account does not work either.)

    Thanks in advance,

    In principle, 'Yes', as suggested by ITknowledge24, but after a few business mixed upward account names I'm not so confident. If it was my own machine, then I leave the account as it is. Alternatively, you can create a restore point before moving forward so that you have a backup path rewrites.
