Cant save file to CD on personal PC, due to admin

[BAC]

Somehow I have gotten the admin controls activated on my PC. when I try to
use a CD to save a word file, the computer tells me I do not have the admin
authority to do that.
this is my personal computer, not networked with any others, been using it
for years. how do I get out of this? I am unable to back up my documents.
thanks

This is not an Office question. I would start with a newsgroup for your
operating system.

You can't save a Word document direct to a CD from within Word, if that's
what you are trying to do. Save the document to your HDD and then burn it to
the CD.
