having trouble installing window blinds

at the end of the installation where there's only 2 seconds left, it says that the installation cannot continue because I'm not logged into as an admin. I'am sure that I'm the admin as this is the only account on this computer. I don't know why it says that. Can anybody help me solve this problem?

Are you installing from a standalone EXE downloaded from Stardock or using Stardock Central?

If you are using the standalone installer, you may be able to get around the problem by installing Stardock Central (free download from Stardock), entering your registration information there and allowing Stardock Central to install WB for you.

Be sure you remove all traces of WB first, BTW, and reboot before installing WB via Stardock Central.

If you're already installing from Stardock Central, not sure what the issue may be.

Here's the drill:

4 - Click on 'Tools' in the menubar, select 'Register products...'.
5 - In the dialog that opens, click on 'Object Desktop' in the left panel.
6 - Click on the dropdown box labeled 'Product:' and select 'Windowblinds 5'.
7 - Enter your email address in the 'Email:' box (the one that your registration information was sent to).
8 - Enter your product serial number in the 'Serial Number:' box.
9 - Click the 'OK' button.
10 - Click on 'Object Desktop' in the left panel of the main Stardock Central application window.
11 - Be sure the 'Show pre-release versions' checkbox at the bottom of the window is not checked.
12 - 'Windowblinds 5' should appear in the 'Purchased Software' list in the frame to the right.
12 - Click on the 'Install' button, or right-click the 'Windowblinds 5' text and select 'Install'.
13 - Follow the prompts from there.
