when i first go my computer i set it up so that i had an admin account and a standard user account. the admin for just occasional use for this and that and the standard for everyday use. then when i downloaded stuff and tried to install it...i would ask me for the admins password, i would put it in, and it would work. idk what i did but now it just tells me to log into the admin account to install it...doesnt give me the option to put in the admin password. what can i do to get it back to how it used to be? it was alot easier to use then.

Might want to check your User Account Control settings. Maybe you changed them and don't remember.
