Administrator checkbox - sitecore

I was wondering if I can somehow reduce administrator access rights to a user eventhough ive checked this user as an administrator.
Ive read that once a user is checked as an administrator he has full rights regardless the security editor but I wanted to make sure that there really isnt any "easy" way how to restrict his access.
Why am I asking? A client wants to create a few new users (administrators) but at the same time he doesnt want them to be able to use File Explorer. If I could somehow manage this from Core database that would be neat.
Thank you very much for any comments.

How to create a user in RingCentral account?

I tried to create a new user in RingCentral account but It is not allowing me to create it. I am using developer Admin account.
Am I missing any privileges?
You may be using free account and that's the reason there is not much privilege to create enough users.
You need to go to https://service.devtest.ringcentral.com/application/users/users/
Try the add user--> Add user without device and then try without number as below:
This will work. If you are still unable, then please raise a support ticket.
Hope that helps.

How to Make a Password Protected Account for User Kivy

I am trying to make a login page for a user using Kivy. How can I make a bank that logs user logins and times and give them access to the account? Also how do I keep the different settings and files separate from one account to another with Kivy? There is no documentation about having or creating two accounts that the user can login with and a guest.
Sorry. I just need help Kivy (MIT)
Thanks.
Kivy is not designed to take care about user management. It's just GUI framework. Like QT or something else. If you want to log in users or store their settings you have to find your way to do it.
I advise you to read some about SQL databases.
Also if you want to go online with your app read some about threading module.

TikiWiki user management

How do I manage users of our tikiwiki?
The tiki process on the server is ran under my name. I am the user of the tikiwiki, but I am not sure I am an admin user.
Most likely not but question one is: How do I find that out?
(my Admin Menu is empty)
Some user contacted me saying her account is "Locked". It so happened that there is no one else to restore it, but me.
Can anyone help where to look? I only used my tikiwiki account to limited extent. Just wrote couple of articles. But never administered.
There is always a built in user in Tiki called "admin" and that is in a group called "Admins" which has permission to do everything, so it sounds like your user isn't in that group.
If the admin user was set up with a valid email account (and you know it and have access to it) then you can get the password reset and a link to make a new one will be emailed to that address. If you can access the installer or the database then there are various other options on how to recover the admin login here: https://doc.tiki.org/Lost+admin+password
Once you have done this and can administer the Tiki again you should add your usual user to the Admins group.
To unlock another user's account you will need to either access the user admin list (once you have admin login again) or if you can get to the database you should be able to clear the relevant field in the database directly using phpmyadmin or similar as a last resort (ask again if you need this much detail).

how to test facebook application with extended permissions, without asking for review

i have read all the answers ( i could find on the matter), and they say, if you are a developer, tester or admin of the application, you should be able to test the app without any problem. I have tried as a admin of the app, developer, tester etc (all the roles given in the developer dashboard) no luck, next i have tried with the test users, still no luck, when i ask the user for the permission (publish_stream), the popup always says
Submit for Login Review Some of the permissions below have not been
approved for use by Facebook.
I have setup the "privacy policy link", i have uploaded the application icon, entered the application description, still no luck. in the mean time, the other two permissions i ask (user_photos and email) work with no problem.
I can't get what i am doing wrong. has anyone had problems like this?how did he manage to solve them? any help will be much appreciated.
P.S the only thing i haven't tried is to submit the freaking app for review, but the app is far from done, so i think, the review will be rejected
You really don´t need to go through the review process for testing, unapproved permissions work for every Admin, Developer or Tester of the App. publish_stream is deprecated though, what you probably want is publish_actions.
If it still does not work with an Admin/Dev/Tester and the publish_actions permission, i´d suspect a bug. In that case you could report it: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/

QDesktopServices::storageLocation returns admin folder after elevating program

parts of my application suite (client + updater) needs administrator rights for correct behaviour. My client application uses QDesktopServices::storageLocation() in various places to get the correct user profile path for saving user specific data. But as soon as im using QDesktopService::storageLocation() in an elevated application the path changes to the admin user, which makes it difficult to control.
Like from "C:\Users\basic_user\AppData\Local" to "C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local".
Is there a way to deal with this with qt or is my only possibility to use the WinApi?
What is the "right way" when facing the scenario of having an elevated app but one still needs to operate in the user space.
