Allow running a program for users

[ricksis]

Hey... um, I have this problem with running a program in Windows 7. I don't have an admin (since my parents do), and I wanna have access to that program without Windows asking me for the Admin password. I tried from Parental Control ("Allow or block a specific program"), but that was set to "Allow that user to use all programs" ( I still wasn't able to run it). I tried then "allow user specific programs", then it gave me this gigantic list with all the programs (including the one I have my problem with)... I hit the "Check All" button, but it still doesn't run without Admin's permission...

Could I get a little help? :S

Ask your parents to give you access to the program.

My parents have an issue about the amount of time I spend on the PC, not about the programs I use... I have been using the admin user lately (with their awareness), but now I need to run that specific program (like many others [Blizzard Updater]) from my user.

 

[ricksis]

And they wouldn't know how to do that, too. They ask me for such things.

you must set the permission and add the permission group administrator on your user login.

 

[ricksis]

Huh? So you're saying I should turn my regular user into an admin user?

 

[ricksis]

Um... Guys?

you must set the permission and add the permission group administrator on your user login.

Ryo has answered your question.

Ok ... but to be more specific, how do I do that?

 

[ryo]

ok..your parents is give a limit to you.
so i wanna ask.what program that's you want to install? like windowsStar said,ask your parents to give you access.
because you can install or allow control using administrator.

Hi ricksis

What exactly is the program that you need to run under admin credentials?
If you already are operating under the admin account then there really should be no issues with accessing the admin privileges unless your parents feel otherwise.
If you are asking for assistance to circumvent an arrangement that you have in place with your parents, why don't you have a talk with them about what you are requesting?

It's Garena.exe, and it's installed already, I have installed it myself at the beginning of summer... Since lately I have been using Admin user, I didn't need any permissions to rn it... Now, it says i must be an administrator to open it from another user.

garena is a dota b'net right?
you can direct copy paste the game. like a dota game, just copy the already installed files included map and other. that's should work.

Dude... My parents have NO issues regarding me playing... just NOT playing 24/7. I have talked to them, and, as I said, they don't know how to give me that permission. So I tried by myself (they are AWARE) to give my computer user allowance.

And please... Try to give more attention to my thread rather than overtalking about me and my problem with my parents.

OK... Garena.exe is not a GAME. It is a "thing" that allows you to connect to Garena server. In the program you have a "Start Game" button, which opens the actual game, Warcraft 3. So you're playing the game VIA Garena.
Now, I have taken the "Garena.exe" file from my laptop, copied it to Garena folder from my PC, but it still asks for Administrator password. Then tried fully copying the Garena folder from my laptop, but that dind't work as well.
Btw, I'm not asking for tricks (copy/paste the program). I'm asking for the solution to my problem, if there is one. (via Control Panel).

P.S.: I'm going downtown for a few hours, I'll be back later on. Don't close the thread.
