    Admin access


    Is there any documentation for Windows 10 that would include the procedures ways and means to actually Administer the Windows 10 Operating System rather then a fiction writing.


    Through-out the plethora of links and links and locations and locations where the word Administer is shown to exist. I assume there are procedures.


    As a example. This specific example only goes to show that there does exist ways and means within the Operating System to work with Administration.

    With this example and the endless writing of example together with the use of the word procedure. There could be Documentation of procedures that write in a non fiction sense the procedure of Windows 10 Operating System Administration. But where is the non fiction written procedures to Administration for Windows 10 Operating System.


    While trying to install a device driver for a Ben Q monitor.


    Inside of File Explorer / Downloads / device driver


    highlighting the device driver string with the curser and then clicking on the icon with the check box of which is located in the area of the top left hand side of File Explorer window.


    Clicking on the icon with the check box displays another window and in its menu at the top with word of Security displays the word Administrators.


    It all boils down to the endless clock time together with stress and frustration while trying to enact what could be a basic straight forward action.


    If any body knows where there is written non fiction Documentation for the procedures of Administration in the Windows 10 Operating System. Please let me know.


    Thank you

    :)

    Cannot access shared network drive


    Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


    If this helps.
    step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
    step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
    step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
    step 3a remove Everyone from list
    step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
    step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.

  4. Admin access

    Windows 10 no admin access

    Hi,

    We'd like to learn more about the issue that you recently encountered. For us to provide the troubleshooting steps, please clarify the following:

    • When you mentioned that you have no admin access, does it mean that you can sign in to your own user profile but the privilege is limited?
    • Have you made any changes or installed updates before this issue occurred?
    • Did you encounter an error message/code when you tried to restore your PC?
    To also answer your inquiry about the Admin account, there is a hidden built-in Admin account that you use in case of emergency. We will provide the instructions on how to access the hidden Admin account once we determine the root cause of your concern.

    We look forward to your response.
