After years of using my PC without this problem, I now find my Date and Time

have changed and I'm unauthorized to correct it. At some point yesterday

the date and time on my PC reverted to April '03 and when I went into Control

Panel to change the Date/Time, I got the notice "You do not have the proper

privilege level to change the system time".

 

I'm pretty computer illiterate so if anyone can help me, I'll need "dummy"

type instruction.

 

Any and all help is appreciated.

    Go to Start/control Panel/user Accounts. Look at the account you

    logged in with. Does it say "Computer Administrator" under it?

    Thanks for taking the time and interest to respond to my dilemma. As per

    your instruction, I opened the "User Acc'ts" and saw that my user acc't was

    identified as "Limited Account". My daughter who also has her own acc't said

    she was also unable to change the time. Previously, my account seemed to

    have those "Administrator" privileges, any ideas as to why that changed and

    how to change it back ?
