Default Administrator has no priviledges

When I log on as administrator I apparently do not have administrator

I downloaded a Quicken Update today with no problem but when I tried
to install it as user and was told I needed administrator
priviledges - when I logged off and on as administrator and tried to
install it I got the same message - that I needed administrator
priviledges.
I tried to reinstall an original version of Quicken from a saved
installation file and received a similar message. That I did not have
priviledges.

Same thing - logged on as Administrator I tried to install Acronis
True Image from a save installation file and received a message
saying I needed administrator priviledges to install it.

What can I do so that the computer recognizes me as the administrator
with full priviledges?


It seems like you've had this issue for a while (if memory serves).

What is the malware status of your PC?
