    Default Installation on Vista with Admin Login

    I have a user who installed 2009 on his Vista system and I don't think to process was well versed as his user account was not setup with admin rights, User Account Control at off and his not being aware that by right clicking on the setup.exe he could install as Administrator.

    So I believe he installed is on the systems Administrator account and activated it there.
    The problem is that when he goes to his regular account he is prompted to activate it again. Is there a trick to switch the installation so that other users accounts can use the products installed in the Administrator login without reactivating it?

    Thanks very much!

    I'm not sure, but I'd uninstall the admin one, then just reinstall it correctly under his username. Seems like the simplest solution...

    HTH, let us know if it doesn't.
