Try in Start\Run\control userpasswords2\Users tab\properties\belonging to
group.. try some of the groups you'll find in the drop down window like
authenticated or advanced users.. if this doesnt work consider giving them
administrative rights temporarily, once they have made what they need to do,
remove them from the administrators group, the settings may stick.. or even
the rights... or even create a special group and assign high security
rights to that group by means of the security tab in file properties, enable
the tab by disableing the simple file sharing in folder options\view....
In the system32 folder go into the security tab and add the special group
then apply full rights to that group to a specific folder or even in the
C:\Drive which will cover the whole system I believe this can give users
allmost administrative rights if you check Total control....
This link will help you setting full rights to users or groups.

Prove this theory and let us know....

Hope this helps.

find the difference. *sob sob*
