# Problems caused by administrative restrictions

You may experience a few problems if you do not have administrative privileges. Some tasks require administrative privileges in order to work, such as:

connecting to networks or wireless networks,

viewing the contents of a different disk partition (for example, a Windows partition), or

installing new applications.

You can change who has administrative privileges.
