Page 1 of 8 Many kids have their own computers. As parents, this poses a problem with computer safety; not only to keep your kids safe but to make sure they do not do something that will cause damage to OS. A great way to keep a leash on the activity is to setup the accounts as limited. Unfortunately this will keep some already installed apps from working, including some games. There is a solution to this problem. This quick and easy tweak will enable you to keep the account set as limited and still allow running of applications that require an Administrator account.
