1.2 About Nero BurnRights
Nero BurnRights in combination with Windows® 2000 and later allows a system
administrator to authorize users without administrator rights to burn discs and connect new
burners. This is necessary as users without administrator rights do not have access to the
drivers needed for burning discs and connecting new burners.
