FSX says I need administrator right to save the texture
Hello microsoft,.
I posted a question similar to this one before, got a response, but did not get specific answers. See, when I download the texture file and to copy them all, cut and paste, after all you're supposed to save the file and start FSX. But when I save the file, he denies and says I need administrator rights to save the file when I am the administrator of the computer. Please give me an answer to this and help. Thank you.-MaryseHello

Trying to make a USB bootable via UltraISO, says I need administrator privileges
I'm doing a usb bootable via ultraISO and it says you need administrator privileges. ? I am the administrator and the only user to use it... !!
all solutions... ?
You receive the error message is a little vague. You really need "elevated privileges" that are more that holds a user to the Administrators group. Restart ultraISO by the contextual element or the right click menu and select run as administrator. Provide credentials if necessary.

Windows Vista version 6.0.6002
Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18828
Windows Vista is 32 bit Home PremiumRun Windows Update to get the latest update from Microsoft. Windows Update indicates that I need to download Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Vista.
Try to install it and it reports that "Setup cannot continue because a newer version of Internet Explorer has been detected on this computer." Result in the Code E windows Update encountered an unknown error.
Check under the "uninstall an update" to try to uninstall and reinstall Internet Explorer 8, however there is no "Windows Internet Explorer 8" in the list as a normal OS Vista would have.
So if Internet Explorer 8 is installed, so why Windows Update still trying to install it? And why is there no "Windows Internet Explorer 8" in "Uninstall update"?
I just use the standard uninstall to remove Norton. Before installing McAfee.
1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).
3. click right on the file saved in #1 above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart & test.
Norton applications are notorious for not to uninstall "cleanly". If the "remains" of Norton are at the origin of the behavior, run the removal tool should solve the problem. Ideally, you should run this utility before installing the McAfee application so YMMV.
