Hello,
I have a problem on my home PC, i’m runing XP pro SP2,
the problem is that i use an account which is member of the administrators group,
(i know that it’s wrong for the most part to use this account)
and i can use most of my admin rights o say change system time and install applications,
but in some things i try to do like in starting a performance trace, installing some apps and such, i get an error message that i need to be an administrator in order to do it,
i tried runing as an administrator but that won’t work either i also tried creating a new account and gave him membership of the admins group and runing as and it still gives that error, i also tried logging in to that account and trying to do the i get the error for but that won’t work either, i tried removing my original account from the admins group and adding it back but that won’t do either,
i think it might be a bug, all i remember is that long time ago i set a password for that account in-order to remote control it, and afterwards set a blank password for it,
i would appreciate any insighs as to wether anyone encountered this and solutions would be great,
if you need more info than i’m a technical person, work as 1st level tech-support for a huge (4,500+) and highly IT based stock traded company, i can give you more details about this problems if you ask me to,
thanks in advance,
