When you are signed in as an Administrator what exactly happens when you try to download apps and programs?
As Guest you can download those items but you should only be able to install them if you enter an Administrator user name and password.
Administrator right is not an option for the Guest account.
What do you mean by "the admin account has become redundant "

Hello tdiar25

Hi there the reason that I want to go to guest admin is that the guest will allow me to download apps and programs where admin will not allow me these to download antything!
As admin I cannot input or download any apps or programs, whereas in guest mod I can do all the things I need to do
