The User, although running as Administrator, probably doesn't have permission to make such changes.

If you are using Avast! antivirus, try this. Avast! > Settings > Active Protection > File System Shield > Off Copy your files, then turn the Avast! File System Shield back on.

Or like a desktop with only an SSD, with only a 24 GB system partition. I want to reduce it to 20 GB, to get 4 GB more user space, but I'll stay on the conservative side, just in case MS Updates or my apps get a severe case of bloatware in future releases.

That is not possible given the existing permissions for the Windows directory. "Users" has Read/execute, List folder contents, and Read. The other permissions are not allowed. "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" has the same three permissions, with no others allowed. "TrustedInstaller" has List folder...

You are unable to uninstall IIS after you install KB2919355 in Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2 Compatibility update is available for Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2: April 2014

Now that you mention it, I realize that Hεαrtblεεd is at the server switch "level" and is unrelated to the user OS. Now excuse me, I must get back to changing all my passwords, and I have no idea of how many there are, much less where they are, or even, in some cases, what they are. It's...

Ubuntu would not install on my ASUS M4A785-M AM2+ m/b, ATI HD 4200 onboard with VGA/HDMI/DVI-D, AMD Phenom II 8900 3-core, Mushkin Chronos SSD, ASUS 22X DVD-RW setup, nor on a Lexar Jump S70 16GB USB. Believe me, in the wake of Hεαrtblεεd, I wanted to install Ubuntu rather than Windows 8.1 - as...

Check to see if you have placed a user limit on your router settings. It may be that you have locked yourself out at max users = 4, for example. Or you may have allocated only four IP addresses for connected devices. You may find what you're looking for in your router settings at...

Horsefeathers. Unsupported OFFICIALLY, without a doubt. But MIDI plays the hardware, nonetheless. I haven't tried Windows 8.1 with my Clavinova, and I probably won't. Windows 95 OSR2 and Cakewalk do just fine for me with that setup. But I've never had any Yamaha or Yamaha Clavinova drivers...

Your problem started after replacing the AMD/ATI video with nVidia video. The Catalyst software for AMD/ATI is notoriously difficult to remove. Head to the AMD site and search for an uninstaller program for either your specific Catalyst program or your ATI Radeon display adapter. That...

BeKure, if your house is over 50 years old, and the walls are plaster instead of sheet rock, you have metal mesh as a lattice for the plaster. The metal mesh creates a Faraday cage, which blocks or significantly impairs wireless signals. The metal mesh is probably not in the ceiling, which uses...

Will this arrangement (VMWare, Virtualbox, VMBox?) support a 20-year-old Epson ActionLaser 1000 with XP drivers, on LPT1:? I have lots of toner, worth hundreds of dollars, that I DO NOT want to throw away - hazardous waste damaging the ecosystem, you know. The snail darters wouldn't like it...
