I am unable to open a photo I took with my phone because message says I need permission from administrator who I believe is me. How do I get access to this photo?

    If you are the only person that is using your computer then yes you could be Admin.... It is there as a way to make sure standard users don't mess up the computer. If your not the only user on the computer there would be someone that would need to put in the Access code to let you do things like that....

     

    What type of computer do you have and what OS are you using?

     

    In most times, If your the only user on the computer, You would go to control panel, then  Users, Then change user type on your name... Once that is done it most likely will ask you to restart your system.... 

     

    Some systems are also set up even if your Admin to warn you that xyz needs to run as admin. You say yes and then it runs. But is a way to give you a step of changing your mind before something runs on your computer.... 

     

    Hope this helps
