Dell s/ware repeatedly asks for Admin password
I have set up my son's Windows account as a Standard user (win 7 64 , new Dell 1545 laptop).
He keeps seeing a Windows box requesting my Admin password so that the Dell Support program can run.Even If I enter it, it appears again later.
What should I do to get rid of this annoying pop-up?
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Cocapala,
Thanks for your reply.
No, I know all the passwords. I just don't want my son to have a password to an Administrator account. He should only be using a standard account as the Windows Live (family safety) Parental controls only work on a standard account.
Regards,
Andrew

Andrew,
It used to be the program, you could right click on it, then left click run as...
It then would prompt for the password and you could tell it to remember it.
Not sure if that';s still an option in the newer versions.
