    Permission from Administrator
    « on: October 20, 2013, 06:24:53 AM »
    My computer often tells me I cant do something and that I need permission from the Administrator. I am the administrator and have full control. However when I set the permissions to full control I got a series of error messages that said basically failed. Yet it clearly shows a tick in Full control box. What should I do to put things right. I recently (yesterday) done a full wipe and re install of Windows 8 after saving all my files to an external drive then putting them back later, could this be anything to do with it. (I have full control of the external drive)

    Many thanks

      Can you place a screenshot of the error?
      You won't know unless you try.
