Dear Sir,
Thanks for your reply, I did setup the domain, below image describes the user that was lost his administrator permissions, the User called "IT Admin", previously I can install any software in any member computer, before 2 weeks ago I cannot and this message appeared "Administrator Privileges are required to install", please find attached links for photos from Active Directory Users and Computers, Group Policy Management to advice me what should I have to do.
