Okay, so I'm trying to install CodexChecks, but my dad took away my admin rights. I can't install, and I don't think I'll even bother asking him to do it for me, because he'll get all "well why do you need that?" and get all bitchy because I asked him something <_< Is there any way I can install it not using the .exe provided or any way to get it on here without being on an admin account?

I'll try it out later, thanks :) My dad works on computers for a living so he probably added something to block me from doing that :p Thanks ^_^

Eh, I decided I don't need it for now :p

There isn't really much of a way for him to block it.

If your dad was clever enough he would of booted up into safe mode himself, went into the Administrator account and password protected it.

But I assume many people dont know that :p

Yup the .bat file. Make a notepad with command.com typed and saved as a file extension .bat
this will take you to the comand prompt from their type
C:>net localgroup administrator username/ADD
type in your username where it says username

Basically go into notepad and enter this:

C:>net localgroup administrator Shorty/ADD


Then with quotation marks save it as this:

"adminaccountgenerator.bat"

Then reboot and see if it worked.

Before I do this, will there be a way to remove admin access so my dad won't notice?

Ok heres what to do:

In CMD enter this code:

Then reboot. After you did all of that stuff you need to do, do this code:

NET LOCALGROUP Administrators Shorty /DELETE
