Please read your own post and think about how useful that information is to analyze your problem. Lots of people here are willing to help but we all need some facts to be able to get an idea what the problem might be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scammed Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) i cant even make screenshots now, and by the looks of it the shop swapped my 8 gb ram to 4 gb. what i mean with full access is that if i right click on c/properties/security permissions for everyone allow the whole pile is checked for allow, full control modify read and execute etc etc Edited August 12, 2020 by scammed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Maybe this will give you some guidance: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-files-winpc/give-permissions-to-files-and-folders-in-windows/78ee562c-a21f-4a32-8691-73aac1415373?auth=1 But if your system is so messed up that you need to do that then that doesn't sound good. Maybe permissions for the registry are also wrong and, and, and. Maybe you should consider setting up a new system from scratch. That will take a little time but then your headache should be over. Trying to "fix" your problem sounds like continuous headache for the future - until you decide to start from scratch. Sorry for no better news but that's what my experience tells me. And 4GB obviously also won't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And make sure you have administrator rights. That does not hurt but I doubt it will fix the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy72 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 firstly you dont need an everyone your the user usually admin also the less users in that list the better the problem may be that you got it all installed in a shop renowned for dodgy programs i bought a laptop in bkk one time it was riddled worse than a 2 dollar hooker with virus programs that was a format job it may be that your new hd is that 2 dollar hookerhttps://www.2-spyware.com/remove-trustedinstaller.html third party installation.. looks like you may need a course of antibiotics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCor Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 You have USER and FILE permissions. Check all the other users (permissions), especially the one you're logged in and using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCor Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 If your Win10 PC is booting and allowing you to launch most apps then whatever permission issues your running into on a program/game would be specific to that program/game. On my Windows10 my "Program Files (x86)" folder security settings are Users (RICHCOR\Users) as Allow for Read & execute; List folder contents; Read Administrators (RICHCOR\Administrators) as Allow [everything checked as Allow] You DON'T want to change permissions at the FOLDER level (unless it's a folder you personally created and need to adjust). But do check the FILES permissions on the program/game you're having issues with. If all else fails, backup the folder, uninstall, reboot, reinstall.

scammed Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 im not even sure if i am logged in as administrator, i just started a game that require being administrator for the password to stick, its just that the password doesnt stick. can anyone confirm if this is indeed the administrator account or if i were screwed the moment i went to that shop ?

RichCor Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 It says User name: acer Account Type: Local Account Account Type: Administrator You also have the option of running executable/launchable items in 'elevated' privileged mode by right-clicking and selecting "Run as administrator" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCor Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 God Level is something a bit different (and there is a downloadable windows tool to give you that). Hovering over an icon (start menu, desktop, file explorer, etc.) and right-clicking should present you with a context-sensitive menu with an option to "Run as administrator". Also using Shift-Control and double-clicking does the same thing. Using this option is only recommended when normal user privileges prevent you from completing tasks that require 'elevated' or administrator privilege.
