So,a while back, I got World of Goo during the Pay-What-you-want sale, but there is one problem, when I open it, it always asks for the Admin Password, so I have to call my mom and ask her to put in the password.
Is there any way to get rid of the Admin Lock on it?
(No, I am not an Admin)

Why would there be a lock on an E game? Seems unnecessary to me. On topic, I have no idea.

Can't you just cancel it, it happens to me when I load up unreal tournement 2004 and I just cancel it. It still plays for me :D

On the Admin account, right click on the game and switch privileges over to whatever account you are on. I think that should work.

Well, you could ask for Admin privileges--there's not much reason for your parents to not let you have them that I can think of. Other than that, I've got no idea.

Particularly because World of Goo is pretty much totally unoffensive... Oh well.

You get around the lock by using a Linux boot disc. You will have to research more because I'm sure this forum doesn't allow hacking questions.
