1341728 2013-05-17 08:29:00 Hi, just setting up a Windows 8 laptop. Having some problems with admin rights and permissions. It won't allow me to delete or edit certain files.
It's really annoying! :annoyed: Do you guys know what to do? I've tried the net administrator account activation. Doesn't show up in the user accounts.
I would like full admin rights for everything. Thanks. :)

What files are you trying to delete/edit? It certainly won't like you playing with system files.
