| | Administrator signin I am signed in as "administrator" for my personal computer. I occasionally receive a warning message that I am not signed in as administrator and that the installer requires an administrator. The message tells me to sign off and sign on again as administrator. I'm confused. Can anyone explain what's going on? I cancel the message or click "ok" and it goes away and nothing else seems to happen but the message will come back at another time. |
