Parental Controls which just won't give up

Hi,

I noticed parental controls already led to a lot of discussions on this
forum. However I didn't find my problem.
I copied a game folder of my old computer (which had windows XP, so
that might not be good). Now, when I start the game it doesn't tell me
it doesn't work, no, it tells me that Parental Controls have prevented
this application from running.
Here's the weird thing though: 1 I am administrator, so I cannot even
apply Parental Controls. 2 I completely disabled parental controls, so
that pop-up has no right to be there!

Does anybody now how to deal with parental controls on games they did
not put on it but still appear even though the service has been
disabled?

Hi Renske,

Just a thought, have you tried to right click on the executable and select
run as admin. I know that you shouldn't have to do this but I'm curious if
that works.

Hi

Well thanks for the suggestion, I didn't know that function existed
but alas, it does not solve my problem. It just is not supposed to b
there at all, so I guess I'll remove it, or find an other way to pla
the game

Did you find out how to turn off parental controls. I forgot my password and
I can't cancel anything. I do not even have children. Somehow I received a
control called
PureSigt. They want a password also and an administrative password. I don't
remember doing any of this.
