I am getting extremely pissed off at this vista crap


I have an account on this computer
I need to have full ADMIN Rights to delete programs install new ones fonts
whatever


as soon as i try to do anything the UAS SAU whatever it is pops up asking me
to enter and admin password. My account is set up as an ADMIN to avoid this,
and what happens nothin, Regardsless of what it has me as in the users panel.
i still dont have real Admin Rights. i have to have our tech guy at work that
set up my laptop come over and type in his password, somehow hes the REAL
admin


all i want to know is step by step how to give me the same RIGHTS he has so
i am able to do whatever i feel like it without being prompted for a password
only that of an admin, and then even after giving me full admin rights, it
still wont take mine?

what gives VISTA?

I NEED AN ANSWER I NEED THIS FIXED NOW!!!!!



how do i make my account the REAL ADMIN?


please email me with the answer
(e-mail address removed)
 
That doesnt help me, I've tried that


my account wont let me change that in the command prompt?

what now?
 
Use the start-programs-accessories-command prompt. There you can run as
admin, though it seems still limited.

Other than that, I completely agree with you. We're not babies, it's OUR
computer and we want Vista to change this crap in the next update.
 
ok, so has anyone figured this out - I followed the instructions on the vista
site, and after trying to update my registry, there was no file as "they"
indicated (after htkey...).

I agree with all your statements - I sent an email to windows yesterday, but
of course, no response, even though they promise a 24 hour response. In
fact, I tried to enter my PID and using "their" instructions, it said the PID
was not a valid format, of course, I used their format - I DO NOT like Vista
at all.
 
You have 2 options
- turn off UAC so if your account is a member of the local administrators
group you will no longer be prompted to confirm any actions.
- enable the Administrator account that is disabled by default on Windows
Vista and use this instead

This sounds like your IT guy has set policies, with the Group Policy Editor,
on that computer that restricts your administrator account?

On a normal, default setup, someone with an administrator account should
'never' be prompted for a password, except when they first log onto the
computer. You should never be prompted for a password after that. The only
thing you ever need to do is click the Continue button when a program or
action asks for admin privileges.

You should be complaining to this IT guy that set up the computer.
