Storage medium storing program, electronic device, and method of controlling electronic device

An electronic device comprising:

• at least one memory and at least one processor which function as:
• an obtainment unit configured to obtain predetermined information on whether a privilege is an administrator privilege;
• and
• based on the predetermined information obtained by the obtainment unit,
• in a case where the privilege is the administrator privilege, regardless of whether a state of a setting related to a network satisfies a predetermined condition, perform communication in a first communication mode with an external device,
• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network satisfies the predetermined condition, perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device, and
• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network does not satisfy the predetermined condition, not perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device,
• wherein in a case where the privilege is the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network does not satisfy the predetermined condition, change the setting so as to be in a setting state that satisfies the predetermined condition and perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device.

A method of controlling an electronic device, the method comprising:

• obtaining predetermined information on whether a privilege is an administrator privilege;
• and
• based on the obtained predetermined information, controlling so as to:
• in a case where the privilege is the administrator privilege, regardless of whether a state of a setting related to a network satisfies a predetermined condition, perform communication in a first communication mode with an external device,
• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network satisfies the predetermined condition, perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device, and
• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network does not satisfy the predetermined condition, not perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device,
• wherein in a case where the privilege is the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network does not satisfy the predetermined condition, change the setting so as to be in a setting state that satisfies the predetermined condition and perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device.

• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege and the state of the setting related to the network does not satisfy the predetermined condition, not perform communication in the first communication mode with the external device,
• wherein the control unit further performs control so as to:
• in a case where the privilege is the administrator privilege, obtain, from history information, specific information for connecting in a second communication mode, which is different from the first communication mode, with a specific access point and transmit, to the external device connected in the first communication mode, the specific information, and
• in a case where the privilege is not the administrator privilege, not obtain the specific information from the history information and transmit, to the external device connected in the first communication mode, information that has been inputted by a user as the specific information.
