USB Flash Drive

By PianoM79 · 14 years ago

I have brand new Dell Inspiron Laptops for the school I work at. We recently purchased 128 MB flash drive. All users have limited access. It will not allow you to access the flash drive unless you are an administrator. How do I fix it? I added them as a power user but it still doesn't work.

You need administrative rights to add drives.

Use the RUN AS command.
