Question

Administrator Window.

by Jan 24, 2012 11:33PM PST

I've had this omputer a couple of weeks. I thought that I hasd come up with a window that showed me as Administrator.
If so, I can't find it now.
Is there one?

- How do you mean "a window that showed me as Administrator"?
- If you go into Control Panel>User Accounts and view your properties, are you administrator?
- Just a tip: we advise our members to have more than 1 account with administrator permissions, just in case the one commonly used gets corrupted. Don't forget the password of that spare one!

That's the window I was looking for.
I'm trying to make changes in a file in a train simulation game I have and it won't let me. It keeps telling me access is denied.
