• "The user profile service failed the log - on" problem of Windows XP administrator account

  OK, so my mom is unable to log on to his profile on Windows XP Home Edition. She has both the administrator account. When she tries to connect, you will see the above error message. My brother can log into his account without problem.

  My mother told me that she had initially gone on ITunes and downloaded 3 things that the program said she needed. When she went to reboot his computer according to the instructions, she received this error message and cannot connect.

  She then guest account and was able to remove the 3 programs, but nothing helped. If anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated. This is the Windows program that is already installed on the computer.

  I tried to search in the forums, but it's a little confusing. She got also never all warnings "temporary profile".

  Thank you!

  Looks like the user profile is damaged.  To allow for the recovery, you will need to log in with an administrator account.  If your MOM was the only administrator account, try starting mode safe mode (F8 at startup) and log in as user 'administrator '.  The default value is the empty password.  After that, follow the steps in the following article:

• Local administrator account and issue of local Group Policy permissions problem.

  You have a local administrator account where it was defined

  http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5716/18112010133154.PNG

  I think preventing the admin account to remove or install devices.  This causes a problem.  Looks like it's AD GP as is grayed out and I can't add locally.  The network team claim there is no GPs AD to limit the admin account local they know of.

  Also, I try to use the process on the machine monitor, but who needs administrator rights and he repeats that the local administrator account is not a member of the Administrators group, but it is.

  Any ideas?  Even if it's just he Process Monitor bit setting?

  And looking at the photo can someone explain which means that icon next to load and unload device drivers.  It is different from the others and think that it is linked, may be trying to tell me that it is a strategy of AD Group.

  I talked to the networks, they said there is not together AD GP for this.  I used the local administrator account to create a new local administrator account and put it in the Administrators group.  Connected to it and it also has the same problem.

  Any ideas?

  The symbol, that you reference indicates that the setting has been locked by group policy and is not editable.  When I saw it in the past, the only way I could replace, it is using "secedit".  For more information about this command:

• Problems with the parental control on the administrator account.

  Never use us the 'administrator' account as I have not configured any other account (it was unnecessary since there are no children in the House).  Whenever I try to download a game, I have problems.  It will finish the download, but as soon as I try to start the game, it gives me an error message saying 'parental controls have prevented this application to run.  I don't know why it gives this error and won't let me in the game, since I'm on the administrator account and it wont let me make changes to parental controls for the administrator account.  Anyone know what is the problem and how can I solve this problem?  Thank you!!!

  Try to create another administrator account, and then connect to that account and try to change or disable the parental control for the administrator account.  I don't know if it will work, but it's worth a try.

  I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.

  Good luck!

• problems with the administrator account

  I turned on our computer and clicked on my profile which is also be the administrator account and the computer says "service profile Service user has no connection" "could not load the user profile.
  Can I use both the UserProfile with my children.  We tried to access the administrator account, but it requires a password that I don't think we have.  Is this some kind of virus that affected only the profiles?  That is to get the administrator account working again?

  Difficulty of a corrupted user profile

  After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

• I have a problem with the administrator account.

  Original title: administrator account is down: no-show to secure boot, will not take password (no defined) to allow facilities. What now?

  I am the only user on my PC Windows 7 Home Premium and have been using it until as recently as an administrator. After learning that it was better to use a standard-privileges account yesterday, I went to the user accounts and brought a few changes, which I am not convinced that I remember exactly, but which provided for the creation of a new account administrator called "Administrator", giving this account a profile picture and changing my personal account with standard privileges. I may have set the password of the new account to be the same as the former, or may not have specified a password, but I know that I didn't not create a new password. Anyway, now I can't do anything that requires administrator privileges.  When the window opens to allow an action preferred by logging in as 'Administrator', or my old password or all simply hit the "Enter" button works. I know that this is the administrator account, I created, because there the thumbnail profile photo that I assigned to him. A used computer scientist Ophcrack successfully, which correctly specified the password of my account now-standard and said that the password of the administrator account was nothing. The newspaper in the boot prompt, administrator does not appear as an option in profile, and it does not appear in the start Mode menu safe either.  The situation is desperate now? What can I do? Thanks for any help!

  When changes to an administrator account, then the safe way goes like this:

  1. Create, test, and document an admin account to spare, even you have a spare House key.
  2. Change your normal administrator account according to your needs.

  If you don't take these precautions, then you can do this:
  1. Use your repair Windows CD to start the machine in Repair Mode.
  2. Use system restore to set Windows to a point before you did what you did.

  Hey trqhien_1605,

  It seems that you simply log on to the guest user account, and then you can choose your administrator account and log in as usual. Here are some instructions on registering your account:

  Close the session

  Choose the Apple menu > Log Out. If you don't want the application windows you have currently open to reopen when you reconnect, deselect the option "reopen the windows when you log in.

  If your Mac is set up for multiple users, other users can connect once you disconnect.

• Satellite L750D - cannot connect using the administrator account

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L750D-14R and it I cannot access to my administrator account, I had not changed my password or anything either, and, the night before, I had been on that fine and the next day he said my username or password was incorrect.

  I tried to put my password in full about 30 times and he wouldn't so I had to use the account invited to try and find a solution, whenever I connect I try to put my password and it still says the same thing.

  Can someone help me please?

  Someone at - it other access to your laptop? I mean the password cannot be changed without reason.

  Maybe a stupid question now but have you created the recovery disc? Problem is that without this password, you will not be able to install the OS by using recovery image saved on the HARD disk and in the worst case, you must reinstall OS by using the recovery disk.

• HP Pavilion 15 ak-025TX of game: Disabled administrator account invites to start but administrator Local account works Fine

  Hello!

  I have this little problem with my laptop where a prompt saying that the administrator account has been disabled after startup. When I click 'Ok', it brings me to my own account login screen and I can connect properly. There is only one account on the computer and that is mine, so I don't see why the prompt keeps appearing every time you start.

  Appreciate any help!

  Hey @HossanEpiques,

  Thanks for getting back to me with such a detailed response. I appreciate it! It allowed me to search a little further in the administrative account are disabled and where it might be from. Based on the process of elimination, it is my guess that more educated that the message comes from the operating system and not software, your specific user account or virus related.

  You don't create a different user account. It was just to try to narrow down the origin of the message. Whether the related software, related profile, operating system, etc..

  The first piece of information, I would like to share with you, is that even if you have an account administrator for you (one you connect to and use every day), it is also an integrated into operating systems Windows 'hidden' administrator account (Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10).

  I found a great site that explains the hidden account and how to activate it. Good that this site is not affiliated with HP, here's a few documents for you: Activate the account administrator (hidden) on Windows 7, 8, or 10. You can decide if you want to try the steps or not. As I have not tested myself, I can't say if it will work indefinitely. I advise you to stay away click on any ads.

  The other option that you have in this case would be contacting Microsoft or reach out using their Microsoft Community Forums.

  If you have forgotten your Windows password and you are on a domain, you must contact your system administrator to reset your password. If you are not on a domain (most of the individuals are not on a domain), you can reset your password by using a reset disk of password or by using an administrator account.

• I can not access my administrator account.

  I created two accounts on my computer an os win xp, administrator of one and the other. My computer does not show me the two accounts on the login screen so I get no option to connect to my administrator account. It automatically goes on the second account. What can I do to fix this?

  Hello

  Under normal circumstances XP Home does not have the single account defined to be anything other than an administrator account. If she did, then you might get caught in a situation that requires an administrative account to rectify but do not have a.

  If you need an account to access for some reason, you'll be...

  Create another administrator account, after which you can change "Mr. Hernu" to limited

  ... or...

  Create another account limited

  On behalf of Mr. Haroon (or any other administrative account) must be able to all the administrative tasks, including adding or remove programs.

  I hope that clarifies your situation.

  For your information, there is an administrator account in XP Home called Administrator, but it is only accessible by starting in safe mode. I wouldn't recommend using this account for anything other than to emergency situations.

  In regards to your problem of disk space, 20 GB is virtually nothing these days. I'm not surprised that you run lack of space. Will help to run Disk Cleanup (start - all programs-Accessories System Tools), but that might only postpone the need for a bigger hard drive.

  Please follow my previous advice (I added to edit) about the issues you are experiencing deletion of programs.

• While creating a new account, my own disappeared "computer administrator account.

  When I created a new user account for my girls, my own family's missing "computer administrator account. Everything that I have now is my "acct kids" who says it is my "admin acct comp' now and all my icons, Favorites, all is gone and can't find it. I didn't delete it, I don't think. When I go to remove user accounts, it isn't here either. I made a password for my account before it disappeared however. Can I retrieve it somehow like that? I'm so disappointed.

  It is a feature, not a bug.

  Windows XP has a built-in account named "Administrator" (without the quotes).  The design idea was that you should only use this account for "emergencies" and not to use it on a daily basis.  This is because that the accounts of users, sometimes, be damaged, it is useful to have a verified account with full administrative access that you can use to fix things.

  To "enforce" this idea (or at least to encourage users to follow), as soon as you create a new account with "Computer administrator" privileges, Windows XP hidden administrator on the Welcome screen.

  The administrator account is still there.

  If you have Windows XP Pro, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice during to the home screen when you are logged on all accounts.  You will get the "classic" logon window  Enter Administrator as the user and the password defined.

  If you have XP Home Edition, you must start the computer Safe Mode by repeatedly pressing the F8 key just after the restart.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited too long to start typing and have to start over.  You can use this method without failure for XP Pro as well.  Once Windows starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account appears on the Welcome screen.

  You have two options at this point: (1) make a new "computer administrator" account for your everyday use and copy to administrator stuff (and then let administrator not used except for emergency situations) or (2) create a "computer administrator" account that you will use that with the exception of emergency situations and make administrator appear on the Welcome screen.  I suggest you to option (1).

  (1): see "workgroup" mode here--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151 account 'Administrator' you used is the "corrupt" account the "new user profile' is the new account that you create which has"computer administrator"privileges and you will need to log on to an account with "computer administrator" privileges to do all this - which can be the 'kids' acct (which, depending on your position, does not have these privileges).

  (2): make the administrator account visible on the homepage: http://www.theeldergeek.com/missing_administrator_account.htm
  C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT allows you to make a backup of the registry before start you.

  Note: once you have things under control and have a spare part "computer administrator" account, regardless of how you choose to do, I suggest you do your children has a "Limited user" account to limit the amount of malice, they are able to do (of course, if they are more than 8 years they will be able to find a way to work around this problem).

• Delteing user account problems

  I am trying to remove a user account from my main administrative account and will not delete. After clicking on the button Delete, it becomes inadmissible and I must continue to send error reports. Have I been hacked and not able to do anything whatsoever as an administrator? I made a new user account and it deleted to see if I could, but still I can't delete the user account I want to delete. I'm not trying to delete my user account, another account via Control Panel and user accounts.

  I don't know exactly what your problem is but here are some things that you might try...

  (1) this could be caused by a problem of file system corruption.  Try to run a "chkdsk" on your hard drive, the two verification options.  It is a step of good maintenance that must be done when even occasionally.  WARNING: on a system drive, it will be performed at the next startup, runs before Windows fully boots, cannot be interrupted and can take a few hours to complete.  (Do it when you won't need computer for awhile)

  "How to perform disk error in Windows XP check"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315265 >

  (2) if it does not help, try to delete the user profile before you delete the user:
  Right click on "My Computer"-> properties-> advanced (tab)-> click on 'Settings' in the section "user profile".
  When it comes to the top (may take some time), select the user profile you want to remove, and then click the button 'delete '.  (You can check the 'Size' column because much more disk space will need to be deleted and could take a while).  After that, try to remove the user from the control panel.

  (3) sometimes, I find that the use of the work of the prompt command line better than doing it using the GUI...
  Open a command prompt window: (start-> Run-> "cmd")
  Enter the following command in the command prompt window:
  NET user smith/delete
  Where, of course, you replace 'smith' with the user you want to remove.

  (4) you can also try a "System Restore" at an earlier date, but if the problem is in the register, and has been around for a while, this might not be a great help.  After restoring, try to delete the new user.
