Vista - Administrator problems

I am having a problem deleting a program that is causing problems.

I keep getting the message that I do not have permission and must contact
the administrator.

Well there is no administrator it's my personal laptop.

My question is how do I gain control of my computer and get rid of the
administrator function since I am the only one to use the system?

Thanks in advance.

I would make sure your logged in as 'administrator'. If your all ready
logged in as administrator, try booting in safe mode and try to remove the
software.

How are you trying to "delete" this program? Usually you do this through
Control Panel-Programs and features. if you need Admin rights to do it, UAC
pops up asking for the Admin password.

I have a problem were i am on the system as a guest. this wont let me download programmes and the user accounts in the control panei wont let me change the account to administrator. Any ideas how to fix this

NO. Do not hijack someone else's thread. Repost separately to get an answer. Thank you

Go in as Administrator when booting up. When the sign in screen comes on type in Administrator as User and leave the password field Blank

Remove your program and reboot changing back the Sign in screen to what you had along with your Password.

Using the computer as an Administrator is not a very good idea since you will be open for virus and malware attacks without UAC and other security suites which is disabled when using the system in that environment

Unable to log in as administrator when I boot up it only gives me the option
for my login.
