    Use a standard user account rather than an Admin user account and it will prompt you for the Admin user account's password whenever you need to use elevated tasks such as installing software.

    Do not simply downgrade your account to standard until you have made & tested an Admin account.
    There is guidance in my ditty - Create two spare local, password-protected Admin accounts [post #2] - TenForums including links to the relevant tutorials.
    {I keep two Admins in case one should ever get corrupted.}

    Welcome to TenForums.
    It's really worth making time to browse through the Tutorial index - there's a shortcut to it at the top of every page.
    - At the foot of the Tutorial index is a shortcut to download it as a spreadsheet.
    - I download a new copy each month so I can benefit from Excel's filtering capabilities when I search for topics of interest.
    - Tutorials are also listed by category at Tutorials - there's also a shortcut to that at the top of every page.
    - Both tutorial pages are searchable.
    - You can also search for TenForumsTutorials in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:tenforums.com/tutorials after your search term. For example,
    taskbar toolbars site:tenforums.com/tutorials

    - And note that you can also search TenForums threads [rather than just searching tutorials] in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:tenforums.com after your search term. For example,
    Search for drivers by HardwareID site:tenforums.com
    [This is what the search box in the top-right corner of TenForums webpages does automatically]
