Hi blackpoison,

This is the UAC (User Account Control) in action. Normally, you would provide the name and password of an administrator account to continue, this typically being the account created when you installed Vista. However, in your case, things are different. I take it that the laptop in question is not actually yours but belongs to the office in which you work. If that is the case, you need to talk to your Systems Administrator or IT support. Restrictions may have been put in place to prevent employees installing unauthorised programs. If the program is to assist you in your work, ask them to install it (providing, of course, that they approve of its use). They should also be able to help you with your other problem.

Hello Blackpoison,

This may help with this also. Check to make sure that it is set to be enabled and show.

May I used wrong word:If you really have phrases NoSaveSettings in these keys - they must be disappeared completly,of course if you set them to 0 theoreticly blockade should disappeared also but practically there is 1% chance then system mistake and can block something,even if responsoble phrase is set to 0,so removing phrases are 100% credible (exlude options with infection ).I attache bellow *.reg file which do exactly what I order you -Will be better if you double click on it +restart

I'm not see info about phrase NoSaveSettings in Brink's tutorial

Yes since i am using the office Laptop there are some redtrictions. Is there any way by which i can get the administrator rights or password with which i will be able to install the softwares. Since i am out from office most of the times its not possible for me to now and then go for IT support.
Can you please suggest me a way, if there is any.

So there are special tools to decrypt passwords or add yourself to Administrators group for example Offline NT Registry editor (link not work now - I don't know why) or John the Ripper password cracker but these kind of tools will be work only if you don't have encrypted disk - because it is office I foresee unfortunatly it is.So you have to before decrypt disk - it is difficult and very expensive.

Is there any other way to hack the Admin password? and change it accordingly.
