Standard Account Windows 7 Is Allowing Installations: Why?
Hi Everyone,
My father has a small office and recently I changed his 1998 Packard Bell desktop running Windows 1998 to a Windows 7 HP desktop.
Since changing it he realized that his secretary has installed a lot of junk and has been doing a lot of things she ought not to be doing on the desktop. She was unable to do such things on the extremely slow Packard Bell.
I went to his office today and created a Standard Account for her to use. However, to my surprize when I tested to see if I could install a program which was on my flash drive while logged in as the Standard user I was unable to install it without any prompt for the administrator password.
I googled and tried most things including logging back as an Admin and setting the UAC settings as high as possible etc. and still no dice.
How can I set up this standard account so that if the secretary tries to install anything it will ask for the administrator password?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
