    admin user lost some admin rights


    I can't delete a file from the desktop. When I try, it says to get the rights from the specified admin user (which I'm logged on). The strange thing is that I still can create other users from this account (including admins).

    Any suggestion on what to do?

    Oh, wait, that's a folder I've dowbloaded. Anyway, why is the name important at all? It's PWI Genesis, btw.

    No, not yet.

    This time Win claims that I don't have (lost) rights to write in disk C (one of 4 partitions of a hdd, with Win on this disk).

    Anybody has any idea what is going on?
