Using MakeMeAdmin to Install Software
How it works
For security reasons, your system will block any attempt to install software. If you need to install a new program, you must use the Make Me Admin application by following these steps:
-
Step 1
Open the Start Menu and type "make me admin" and click on the Make Me Admin app OR click on the Make Me Admin icon in the taskbar.
Step 2
Select "Grant Me Administrator Rights"
Step 3
A notification will confirm that the application was successful.
-
Step 4
You now have Administrator rights for 15 minutes to initiate your installation.
-
Step 5
Once time has expired, you will receive a notification that Administartor rights have been removed.
