Fix for Adobe Shockwave Flash suggests to add 'protect=0' as administrator. Denies change, why?

more options

In an attempt to fix Adobe Shockwave Flash a solution suggests to add 'protection=0'. However, once populated the change is denied citing no permission, must be logged on as an Administrator. Thing is, I am signed on as an Administrator. What gives? Am I required to go in and expand the Administrator's powers somehow? If so, how?
