  2. I can't remove or install anything. I need permission from the Administrator.

    My user account is locked and I cannot remove or install anything. The box says NO to any changes. I need permission from the administrator. I am the administrator.

  3. I can't remove or install anything. I need permission from the Administrator.

    Log out to the sign in screen.

    Hold down the shift key on your keyboard while clicking the Power button on the screen.

    Continue to hold down the shift key while clicking Restart.

    Continue to hold down the shift key until the Advanced Recovery Options menu appears.

    Click Troubleshoot

    Click Advanced options

    Click Command Prompt

    At the command prompt, type:

    net user administrator /active:yes

    Hit Enter

    Close command prompt, restart, then try signing into the Administrator account.

    Check if your can uninstall apps.

    If you have to keep UAC at lowest setting then please be aware of the following:

    • UAC is necessary to 'harden' your system. ie To protect your device against malware that gets past AV programs and firewalls.
    • This should only be considered a temporary fix and it is recommended you reset UAC back to it's original state, once a permanent solution is found
    • I do not **believe** there is a permanent solution at this moment in time
    • By either disabling or lowering UAC settings, you accept the potential increased risk of subsequent malware infection
