How can a standard user re-enable "Allow non-privileged users to modify settings"?

Hi. I'm a new user. In the settings, I unchecked the box "Allow non-privileged users to modify settings". Now, as I'm non-privileged because I'm not a network administrator but only a Windows 11 Pro Administrator, I cannot return to settings to reapply this check-mark. Thus, I have no choice but to uninstall and reinstall RAMDisk. In case I were to ever do this again because of my stupidity and ignorance, is there a way to undo it?

To revert this setting, you need to edit the configuration file manually:
- Quit the RAM Disk application using File - Exit in the main menu. Do not use the [X] button as it will only minimise the application.
- Open this file in Notepad
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SoftPerfect\RAM Disk\ramdisk.xml
- Change this line
<useraccess>[b]false[/b]</useraccess>
to<useraccess>[b]true[/b]</useraccess>
- Save the file and close Notepad.
- Start the RAM Disk application again.

OK, then I take back what I said earlier. I will be likely to purchase the program. Thanks for responding quickly.
