| | is there a way to shut off all the permissions in Vista? Hi I reformatted the computer back to xp for now. Is there a way to shut off all the permissions to continue in vista. If there is I`ll put it back on. but I do alot of work on the computer and it got annoying have to give it permission constantly. I know vista is about security but it has gone alittle to far. Also I got tired of having to try and get a program working . Run as admin wouldn`t work or it was too hard to get permission set up as admin. I`m the only one that runs this computer and noone else touches. So if there was a way to change it . I would appreciate it. -- Sincerely Kathy |

Hi Gorden, Most of the time the admin account worked but there was a few programs I was trying to get set up wouldn`t let me take over as Admin so I deleted them. I would go into proterties and in the permissions and the take over admin would be greyed out on them and I would play around with the user account and still couldn`t get it ungrey. So I just went back to xp for now. thanks -- Sincerely Kathy "Gordon" wrote: Quote: > "Kathy" <Kathy@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:FF2378A4-4A65-4E4A-8E4D-869D7F1F4241@xxxxxx Quote: > > Hi I reformatted the computer back to xp for now.

What do you mean by "it was too hard to get permission set up > as admin"? An Admin account can do ANYTHING on the computer..... > > |
