Phil: Christopher's explanation looks pretty good, but I'd just add a couple points: if you're still running Windows XP, as I recall, you don't need to worry about permissions, because users are set to have administrator privileges by default. You can create users (say for children or adolescents) which do not have administrator privileges but this must be done explicitly. In Windows 7 (sorry, skipped Vista, so don't know whether this applies there or not) I believe only the first user created on the system has administrator privileges, and all subsequent users created do not; one must explicitly assign them administrator privileges. If you are the only one using your computer, you can give all accounts on it administrator privileges, and not have to deal with the issues that confronted Lawrence.
And since I'm pushing the limits of what I know here (though not necessarily what I think I know), I'll refer any with other questions about permissions and administrator privileges to Windows help. ns _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu
