Windows 10: my games are crashing due to a lack in permissions to run

my games are crashing due to a lack in permissions to run and it will not give me the authority to change those permissions even in administrator login. I have tried other ways of giving it permission, but all others have been restitched permission as well

can't modify file due to lack of permissions

There are tutorials on that- see the Tutorials section- and free 3rd party tools that do that too.

And if you were to search the forum you migh find some of the many times these have been mentioned.

In a normally functioning PC permissions are there to provide a degree of protection from mistakes- and even privacy where there is more than one user.

If you were to either
- boot to a command prompt
- boot your PC from a live boot disk
no permissions would apply - which is fine if you need to do something very occasionally and exceptionally.

As an immediate (temporary) fix you might try adjusting the volume of system sounds:




Assuming the sound you wish to modify is the mail notification sound here - then this is how:




However you might mean a different one- if so, which?

 

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

 

can't modify file due to lack of permissions

If you didn't quite follow what Dalchina was suggesting:
1. Go to Control Panel>Sound>Sounds tab, and identify the wav file you want to change.
2. Copy that file from C:\Windows\media to a folder you own
3. Edit the file to amplify it (I just used Audacity)
4. Tell CP>Sounds to use the new file:



Here I have selected my modified file 'Alarm0mng_amp.wav' to change the default beep (I may leave it there).

Does that help? No need to change ownership of original sound! Martin
