this is annoying as heck. How do you set yourself as admin in windows 8? I assumed the default profile would be the admin profile... but that doesn't seem to be the case. I actually set 2 accounts up on this laptop. One for me and one for my mother. I was planning on leaving myself as the admin and limiting what she could do on her account to help limit the damage she could do (shes very computer illiterate)
However there are a lot of times i go to run a game, steam game, or other program and it says it wont run right unless i run it as admin. How do i make windows recognize the main profile IS admin. For some reason it shows 3 when i look. Admin, me, my mom. My profile has admin privileges it shows, but for some reason a lot of programs still require me to right click and run as admin.
How can i change this?
