Why do I all of a sudden need admin permission?

So, when I save pictures on my PC, I seperate them in files under different topics. yesterday I was able to do this with no complications. But today, I tried too, and now it's telling me I need admin (who is my dad, who put his 'admin' on my computer two months ago) permission to make a file, or to put pictures in a file? Why is this and how do i stop it? What did i do? I could do this without admin rights just yesterday at like 11 pm, this morning at 9 am i tried and now it wont let me? Help please!?!

Update:

Well i can't without the admin password... if i had that this whole problem would not exist.

Update 2:

Yeah...okay? How do i do that? Do i need admin password? Cuz i certainly don't have it, and i'm sure my dad would love that. But yeah, how do i boot up in safe mode?

Update 3:

My Dad's Admin is on a different accound (duh)

I don't know my dad's admin password, and there's no way I can find it on this account.

How do i (can i) 'boot up' in safe mode without having my fathers password?

    Click on Computer. You should be able to find the password. If not, create a new account.
