| | RE: Vista Administration I have the same problem when I try to remove some files that Vista thinks I should keep (Internet Explorer, for example). I, too, am the Administrator on my home computer but I'm told I need Administrator approval and to "Try Again" (button) continually. Does anyone ou there have a solution?

| | Re: Vista Administration Hello, it's possible that the program that should write the files to CD doesn't have administrative privileges - which may be necessary for doing this. So, right-click the program and select "Run as administrator". If you have special problems with folders that you should have full access to but you can't access them, right-click them, select Properties > tab "Security" > Advanced > tab "Owner" and take ownership over the folder. Then, change your permissions in the "Security" tab, if necessary. -- Greetings, P.
