I have not had that problem myself but I would try booting into Safe Mode
and check properties/security for the tasks to make sure administrators have
full control. Also verify that you are indeed logged on as an administrator.
You can use the command net localgroup administrators to see members of the
administrators group. If all that checks out but does not work it sounds as
if file/registry permissions may have been modified somewhere along the line
that are restrictive to administrators. You could use secedit as described
in the link below to reset security settings to default defined levels and
if you want only specify the areas you want reset with the /areas
itch. --- Steve
