Ownership issues, restricted access and pure frustration.
Hello, so I'm currently writing on a laptop which is owned by a company. It's my dad's laptop and he asked me to install certain programs he needs for his work which are on multiple CDs.
Even before he asked me I tried installing an antivirus and I couldn't because the access was denied. I let that go in a hope that they have done that with a reason, a really retarded reason (imo).
I have no access to the registry, cannot install takeownership, cannot install anything that could possibly help me. I have no access to the administrator folder. Now, when I try to disable the built in admin acc it says access denied. I cannot even add a new user. ACCESS DENIED. The one I'm currently signed on is a built in admin account.
When I turn on the laptop I have to use ctrl alt del and enter my password to sign in. There are two icons upon signing in: a) HAK/user.name b)Guest
Now, does anyone have a solution? Just don't tell me to install something because I cannot run anything as an administrator.
Also.. please don't tell me to reinstall Windows 7 because the laptop is not mine and I don't want to test out things that could make it even worse.
