I seem to be having a problem with a laptop and
installing any program with a user. She can't install
anything, yet she has admin rights. I can't install
anything either, and i have admin rights, also part of
the admin domain group for our domain. Now 2 users who
both have admin rights, and still can't install anything?
Is there anything else anyone can suggest, i'm going to
try a local install with admin account in the next few
days. But as for that, is there anything else anyone can
suggest to try?
 
Verify that both of you and the domain admins group are in the local administrators
group by using "net localgroup administrators". "Net user username" will also show
what groups the user is in. The computer may have been compromised and membership of
the administrators group changed. Trying the built in administrator account would be
worth a try. The built in administrator account would not be subject to any domain/OU
user configuration Group Policy either but would be subject to and local Group
Policy. Look in Event Viewer to see if there are any pertinent messages. I would also
run netdiag on that machine looking for any failed tests, especially relating to
secure channel which would indicate a problem with domain communications or
membership. --- Steve
