administrator permission
My problem is close to that. When I try to log on, it asks for administrator permission, and I don t have a password for administrator permission. I do have the two step authentication, and you basically go around in circles, getting on Firefox to download and update, but you can t really update, because it asks for administrator permission, and doesn t allow you a forgot passcode option. How can I be admitted to two accounds, both double verified, and not be recognized as an administrator? Wasted 2 hours on this access to my own accounts. Box Canyon.

It's asking for administrator access through windows, not Firefox. You need to find out what your administrator password is on your windows device
Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
You can open the Properties of the Firefox desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu and check the "Compatibility" tab.
Make sure all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
- Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
- "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder.
