    Win7 User Admin permissions broken

    Basically it's an administrative user not the root admin , I don't know what it went wrong with settings and i forogot , but the permissions for it account were messed and now it cannot delete/edit sometimes stuff that came from rar or downloader or even installs, plus cannot uninstal most of programs , it's only possible with root admin (hidden), is there a way to restore these privilegies.

    Also the error points "You need administrative privilegies from Administrators/[Nickname] "
    BUT I AM THE DAMN USER !!!!

    It's not my PC so i really don't want to dig it up from scratch.


    The PC has RAID0 so basically im not going to go over that again with a reinstall/reformat. ... takes time.
