Administrator Help

[Guest]

According to 'user accounts', I am the Administrator on my PC. However, I am not recognized as such when I try to use my CD-RW drive (E).
I have posted my problem before but to no avail. Two people were kind enough to try to help me but I am still unable to use my E drive. One suggestion I received, was to add my user account into the Administrator's security group. To accomplish this, I was to right click 'My Computer', click 'manage', then 'local users and groups'. Unfortunately, after clicking 'manage', I do not have the option to click 'local users and groups' (it just isn't there).
I was hoping someone out there would show me another way to get to 'local users and groups', or even better, solve my original problem (my E drive).
Thank you so much to anyone willing to try and help me. I really need my 'E drive' for backup.

Kira,

'local users and groups' is not available in Home version, only in Pro.

(in Home) User Accounts maintained in Control Panel (Users and Accounts or something...). There you can assign a particular (in your case Administrator) role to your account.

Hope this helps.
