Vista: file write error / admin permissions

[Nazbit]

Hi all,

I have had this error message a few times with a few different programs, just wondering if anyone can solve it for me....

File Write Error
"Program Name" requires the permission to write to "location" folder. Please run "program" under a user account that has the appropriate permissions.

There is only one user account on the computer and double checking in the user section of the control pannel confims that it is an administrator account.

Any ideas?

Cheers

User Access Control.

I dont beleive this to be the case, user access control is disabled on my machine yet I still need to right click some programs and select run as administrator as suggested by Bobbler.

I dont know why it happens, but certain programs seem to require it.
