:blushing: Embarrassed she asks!!!

Bonnie would like to know as she is a little confused :whistle: but don,t tell anyone!! This is a PackardBell Imedia 1509 Desk pc , shared two users(bearing in mind guys am new to this game :lol: ) is it allowed to have( two administrators with two admin, powers) as opposed to one admin and one limited user. i as you can guess am a bit fuzzy in this area. Any help would be gratefully received

Hugs and kisses from

bonnie :hello:

To change account to admin (Must Be loged on with an admin account)

Right click My Computer icon (either on the desktop or start menu) and Choose Manage,

Right click the account that u want to change and select properties

Then select the Member Of TAB and click

ADD button

Administrator then OK

:blushing: No prob

Did it work?

I wasnt too clear on the last step, adding admin privleges, was hoping u were smart enough to figure out the last step.

You see i cant get to the Member OFF tab cuz ive turned off allot of unnecesary services using black viper descriptions and im incapable of using this service, i cant figure out the service name to turn it back on.

ANYBODY Know?

Be careful bonnie, as an admin you can do just about anything to your system. And the virus writers love to catch an admin account. You might want to remain a normal user and switch to the admin account only when you need it.
