Alana, I am checking settings. Does everyone have a Guest account in their User Accounts section? I Have something reading that says, Guest account off and there is a button to turn it off and on. Now, it is off, but is their a guest account already established in my computer and it happens to be off now or is the capability there to have a Guest account which is not necessarily installed now and that capability to use such a Guest account is off now? I am asking about a fine line bet2ween both of these options. I shall look forward to your thoughts on this topic. I did hear Liuda Administrator password protected which my computer is presently however. Thanks for your help.

It should show what type of account you have. To determine if the computer is in your name, you set this up when you set the computer, being in your name means you are the main user of the computer, I am not talking about who legally owns the computer. When you press on your account you can press on change user type.

How can I check and where can I check to determine if I am still Admin. On this computer???

A computer can have multiple identies that is shared by other people, so when you logged into your side of it, it's all your rights to whatever is there, you should be able to remove programs and etc, unless somehow the program in question you wish to remove is also admin to another user of your computer, then both parties have to log in and remove it or make changes. I'm not 100% sure about this, just guessing here, since a computer is different from like a checking account with 2 people on the same account and one can't make independent decisions without the other aware of it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Liuda" <balciu...@gmail.com> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Monday, February 17, 2014 2:55 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Administrator of a computer Okay fine.
