| | RE: Administrater setting You may need to elevate the application if Windows User Account Control is enabled. To do so, simply right-click on the programs shortcut and click on "Run as administrator" and then click on Continue or Allow (or provide alternate credentials, depending on the way that your computer is configured) in the prompt that appears. -- Regards, Kristan M.
