Accidentally all standard accounts and have now no approval from the admin
I was trying to install Parental control. I place a second account. I went to this account on a standard account to an admin account... or so I thought. Then I changed my initial account to a standard account so I could set up parental controls for it. However, when I went to connect to what I thought, it was the new admin account, I found that he was still a standard account. Now, I have no admin account I tried to activate the hidden... Admin account but in a weird black hole of windows... I need administrator rights to do so. Then, I tried to use management tool for recovery of gateways to restore back to factory setting... but which also requires right admin I also tried to start in safe mode, but pushing F8 or SHIFT + F8 as I saw recommended does nothing. Technical support Gateway has washed their hands and said I must pay for a USB recovery... that pisses me given the PC has been in my possession for about 10 minutes! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello. On the attached screen, there is an optional action box to change PDF to Acrobat Pro. However, when I clicked on the option - and paid for the new feature - I did not notice so that I can use this feature. When I open Adobe Reader XI, I always get the screen with the button, but no function activated, edit my automatic billing has been charged for July and August for this editing feature. I have cancelled the auto payments and want to correct the error. Do I need another product? Why have I not received notice that I was being charged every month? Thanks for responding.

have 2 admin accounts and it is impossible to get the option to remove one of them
I created for the administrator accounts and cannot get the option to remove one of them. I want to delete that won't give me the option to delete all it will let me do is change the password, it says it will allow me to change the picture, but when I try blank on the login screen is displayed. I can't change it even for standard user if I am logged in under the account of other admin. what I want to do is get rid of all my accounts and re-created them correctly like the one that I can't delete will sometimes pop up for password when I want to install something when I am connected with the other account.
Is it possible to reset all our and start from scratch? I think it happened when I made some changed account policy local when I couldn't get a regular with my admin account setup program and now I don't know how to cancel it.
I do not have to reinstall windows just to get this problem resolved... There must be an easier way.
Thanks in advance
Brenda
For the guest account - I have a little poorly stated. You * can * remove, but it is not recommended to perform this (possible to unintended consequences.) http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-desktop/deleting-guest-account/5a116d33-0056-47CA-B51A-b6615b90e160
Administrator account - as far as I know you just cannot delete the built-in one. Whichever one you can NOT remove - who is integrated. * smile *.
Rename you accounts? If not - it is one called "administrator." Alternatively, you can use a registry setting to understand - but really the name should give it (if you have not renamed - and even if he did you rename... You renamed, you must know what you renamed to) the description of the account should be, "the computer or to the domain administrative account '...
At the end of the day - you must remove only the accounts you know * you * created. Ignore the rest. Windows is/has been / will probably always be a multi-user even system when it is used by a single user. He has accounts that are doing things in the background at almost any time. Better than to let them be - unless you like instability.
Whenever you install something (attempt to) as a normal user, it should appear and ask you an administrative level account - but you can select 'other' and put in ANY account of administrative level on this machine, you know the credentials. ;-)

Thunderbird has lost all my accounts and settings
I have been using T-bird for years with only the default profile. I have my personal Setup account separately 2 corporate accounts that are grouped in the local folders.
Yesterday, when I rebooted and started the T-bird, it was as if I had never set up all the accounts. There is no folder or messages and all my accounts had disappeared.
I checked the C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default and the files are still there. It is just that my default profile is not to use them, even if the correct folder is displayed when I go to help/troubleshooting and click on 'display the folder '.
I suspect a main index file (prefs.js) is damaged or has been deleted, which should bind the T-bird to all other files in my profile. How to make T-bird to reconnect with my data files of this profile?
Found my own answer, even though none of the research or the pages of support.mozilla.org were of no use either.
Google found Disappearing mail - MozillaZine Knowledge Base led me to retrieve a profile that suddenly disappeared - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
In this last article, I found this text
- A quick way to say what problem you are suffering from is to look at your personal address book in Thunderbird. If it seems correct, proceed to the section corrupted or empty prefs.js . Otherwise, follow the instructions in the lost profile section.
After going to the section corrupt prefs.js or empty , I found this is my answer:
- Otherwise, you need to rebuild prefs.js. You can do this by creating the same accounts again in the existing profile and Thunderbird to use directories that contain always the missing mail, by this article that Recovering deleted accounts e-mail - MozillaZine Knowledge Base. Another option is to create a new profile using the Profile Manager, create the accounts again and then migrate your e-mail, address books, filters, and other related files of mail of the old profile by this article.

I have a Nikon D600 and downloading photographs to Lightroom 6.1 all images have their settings far from the truth and is no where near what is shown to the camera, i.e. temp is 3800 and tinted 80 magenta, other parameters are also in. other Nikon cameras do not. Everyone knows about this problem?
Looks like you are applying (accidentally) a "Preset" for these photos. Make sure that there is no preselection specified in the import dialog box, and the first (bottom) in the history of develop does not list a preset.

I don't have access to my original account and have a new account which does not show buying CS6. I need to my SR # to re - install on a new computor.
I've been frustrated by my efforts in the past and cannot find this purchase which I have a copy in front of me now, in my online account information.
You can try saving your old product in your new account. Should he be rejected because you do not have your serial number or headquartered in your old account you can no longer access. You may need this evidence to deal with Adobe customer service... This document you may be what is needed. Your serial number was on the cover of the DVD on a sticker glued on.

I had to reinstall all my programs and data to a new disk, the old crashed. During the installation of Flash Player, I can't go any further than the password stage as he rejects. Again the username and password have been accepted without any problem to access Adobe.
Strangely the same problem occurs when I try to install and older version of Lightroom 4.
Can you help me?
Hello
It is the OS, not Flash drive, to ask for the password. Please refer to the FAQ what userid & password I need to install Flash Player? for assistance.

Ive bought and downloaded adode acrobat Pro DC and its now asking me for the previous issue. I don't have it. He told me to uninstall the previous version of adobe so I did I don't have the password for the trail version more. How can I fix? I can't open any pdf on my computer now.
If you have purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro DC as an upgrade, then a serial number of the previous version which you have like Acrobat X or XI. If in the case where you have not bought one of these in the past, then you must buy Acrobat Pro DC as full version (US $449.00).
In this scenario, you can return the version upgrade and purchase the full version. To return the Contact Customer Service
