Hello! Nice to meet you!

I am still newbie like you but i think it asks for password because other users are still logged on.
So next time you want to change user, try not to click "switch users", instead go to "turn off computer"->"logout"
Now log in as another user and try to shut down (make sure all users who used computer did "logout", and not "switch users")
If this works for you, i suggest you to hide "switch users" button in menu like this: go to menu->settings->main menu, when it opens, scroll down and untick "switch users" box and click "close". This will hide this button. But do this only if above described process works.

Thanks for the warm welcome guy's but I need the problem sorting out any help would be appreciated. ;)

I just want to know how to make Linux Lite to stop asking for my admin password when other users are done using the computer and shutting down the PC.

Thank you

Welcome to our little community! We are glad you are here.

Hello!

OK. Thanks for the clarification. Makes sense. Only a few very old PCs are non-PAE anymore.

Fortunately, I have only one laptop that's a Pentium M. AFAIK, it supports PAE; it just doesn't 'tell it to the world'. I was able to get the Ubuntu 14.04 LiveCD to boot on it with the 'forcepae' option. Even an old P3 laptop I have doesn't balk over PAE...

Welcome to Linux Lite. What impresses ME about LL is its combination of speed and simplicity. You MIGHT get a little extra speed once you acquire enough knowledge to build you own 'bare bones' install, then add only what you need and want to it, but even then, a PC won't get very much faster.

Valtam, have you folks considered building a 32-bit LL using a non-PAE 12.04 kernel, or is it not practical?

We do not offer a 32-Bit PAE kernel anymore. We phased it out after the 1.0.6 release in order to be more compatible with machines that do not PAE support on the processor. In 1.0.8, there is an option under "Additional Software" in the menu to install it if you wish to have it.
