Built-in administrator or an account administrator of the user created in Windows XP Professional?
It is best to use the built-in Administrator account or a user created the administrator account in Windows XP Professional? Please provide details. Responses invited experienced users.
You may not use the built-in account named Administrator on a regular basis. Instead, create an account with "computer administrator" privileges When you do so, the built-in Administrator account no longer displays on the home screen (which is to encourage you to leave it alone).
You can also create an account 'limited' for regular use.
Why not use the built-in Administrator account is that, sometimes, going to be damaged. It is much easier to recover from a user account damaged if there is a good administrator-level account.
If you use the administrator account on a regular basis and it is corrupt, you'll have a more difficult recovery.

I have problems separating records and files of the administrator and the user. My computer is a laptop (HP Pavilion dv6700), used as a home computer only by myself, I like to keep the two distinct roles, but am unable to as Vista seems to be considered as one and the same. This scenario has arisen as follows:
Initially, when I bought the laptop - approx. 18 months back - Windows Vista Home Premium was preinstalled, with the name 'Administrator' as an administrator. To customize the operating system and to use safely, I installed a user 'Renault', as a Standard account user.
After awhile, I changed the name of the Director of "Renault", for reasons I have can not remember now. This caused Vista to combine folders and files of the two "users" in one, I found difficult to deal with, that I could not operate my laptop as just a Standard user, but is still considered the "administrator." On the one hand, this greatly increased spam in my email accounts. So I tried to reset the name of the administrator as 'Administrator' itself and keep my user name as "Renault", as originally the case. But Vista me has failed to create a new user under the name "Administrator". So I created a new user under the name "System administrator", with administrative privileges. This has been accepted by Vista.
But I forgot to change the user account for 'Renault', on the Standard account, so there was BOTH administrator accounts at the same time on my laptop! I realized that now only. The net result was that all the files that I created under the system administrator user were still being displayed under the user account of Renault. A few days back, I realized this and tried to separate the files correctly, but it has not been possible. No matter what I copied the account of the user in the files under the system administrator account, the files have been copied on account of the user himself.
I tried to fix this by changing the name of the user account in something very different, AND as a Standard user. but this also does not work, as all folders and files under the administrator account system shows it as being under the user account of "Renault" only!
Then, I deleted the user 'Renault' from the list of the user, but he was not yet of any help. Whenever I tried to create a new file under the system administrator, Vista responds with the message, "C:\user\Rajaram folder is not present. Will I create a new? ", which defeat the same purpose of my tent to isolate the administrator account and the user account.
SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE WITH A SOLUTION, - OTHER THAN REFORMATTING MY C:\ DISK AND REINSTALL VISTA AGAIN - TO GET OUT OF THIS MESS, IT SEEMS TO ME YOU HAVE CREATED AND HELP ME TO HAVE AN ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT AND OTHER UNIQUE STANDARD USER ACCOUNTS PROPERLY ISOLATED.I would be always grateful for a quick and helpful response.
Thanks in advance.-RAJARAM77
Thanks for your reply. It was very helpful / sorry your proposed solution has not solved my problem. Kind regards. -Rajaram77Better to delete the user account except the one that was built in the administrator account that you renamed. Before this backup all your data files of these user accounts.
Then rename the buil into account administrator as 'administrator '. Then you create another administrator account and use it and never the user built in Administrator account and leave it alone. -
How to create a user local administrator with the user root on the CV
As says the tile, how to create a user local administrator with the user root on VCS-Express. I lost the password and cannot log in as an admin user, but I can't seem to log as long as user root.
Once connect you with the root account, type in "tsh", from there, you can create the accounts of local administrators with 'xCommand AdminAccountAdd. See the reference section of command of the VCS Administrator's Guide, starting on pg 517.
If your VCS is a virtual machine, you can change the password of admin with vSphere, or if it is a hardware appliance, you can use the serial port, see pg 312 of the Administrator's guide.

accounting software inserts the user name in the modified records,
I have a customer accounting business. A laptop there is a user "Kathy". She connects with Kathy, all I see is Kathy, except when I echo % user_name % the result is 'user '. The problem is that accounting software inserts the user name in the records changed, which makes 'Kathy' changes to a customer record eventually registered as being made by 'user '. All computers in the company have the same user (different usernames) parameters and all other computers insert the correct user name in the records of change.
Profile of Kathy is new and there is no other user account on this computer.
Profile in the registry settings all show them "Kathy".
Can someone tell me how to solve this problem?
Thank you

I think would be best to contact the developer of accounting software. We have no idea of what the software needs or.

How do I cancel the target account without deleting the user in the system target?
Hello Experts,
We need to know if it is possible to revoke a resource (delete account), without deleting the user in the target system.
Example:
UserOim1 in IOM has a resource of SAP ECC, is linked to the SAP UserSap1user.
We need assign SAP UserSap1 user to another user of IOM UserOim2.
So we'd like to broke the link between UserOim1 and UserSap1 (without deleting the SAP user) and then connect the SAP with UserOim2user.
Is this possible?
Best regards
ATIf you move a resource from one user to another, there is a process of service account for this.
Using the API under tcUserOperationsIntf, you can use changeToServiceAccount. Next moveServiceAccount will move to the instance from one user to another, and finally chageFromServiceAccount turn off the type of service account.
This account must really be identified as a service before all the shares of account account occur however. There should be no other reason to switch from a users account. If the account is defined as a service from the beginning account, simply attach existing adapters for the tasks of service account. They will fire instead of disable regular and delete tasks. I think that you will always have questions if the revoke occurs, and then you run these tasks because all the other tasks will be canceled State.

How can I copy the user created in the administrator account?
Hello
I would like to ask what can I do? When I installed Vista Home Premium on my computer, I created another user account! I have configured my PC how I like it! With all the parameters that I need (research, programs, etc...) I don't want 2 user account, but I can't remove the administrator one! (Now, it's empty, nothing about this)
So, how can I copy all my settings, remove the user and a user account?
I hope I was understandable! :)
Good day!
Hi Muzsika,
I don't know what you mean, so I'll just say what I think is your problem, and then respond.
Problem: I have a standard account I have all my files in and have customized this account. I have an administrator account that I don't use. Because I can't remove the administrator account, I would copy the standard account for the administrator account and remove the standard account.
The answer is: change the standard account to an administrator. account, and then delete the other admin account.
How to change an account type to administrator: (necessarily using the account admin.)Open a user account by clicking on the button start , clicking Control Panel, clicking user accounts and family safety, click user accounts, and then clicking on manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Click on the standard account and then click on change the account type.
Select the type of account you want, and then click on change the account Type.

I have a new computer with Win. 7 home Premium, after upgrade to Win. XP version. Now, I can't open Outlook attachments like in XP because of this error message. I tried to solve in the Tools menu 'accounts' and since I am the 'user' and the 'administrator' (I think), I can not list me under each heading. The computer thinks that I'm just the 'user' and not both, I think. I also tried to lower the security settings to 'medium', but that no longer works. Help someone?

IMAP proxy auth - logs as long as administrator if the user is absent
While the synchronization of the accounts from the old server to OCUCS with imapsync script, I found today that when using IMAP proxy auth (with installation of OUCS 7u2 "vanilla") and specifying a wrong user name (unknown to OCUCS), the absence of the user set IMAP server, but imapsync continues to account for the proxy-admin user Sync messages.
In my view, this means that the default of the proxy connection as user not valid succeeds always a proxy-user connection. (Or imapsync again this connection and that's the problem - I'll try this possibility of research too).
If the problem is known to be one of e-mail server, all toggle to disable these connections as the proxy user and return a failure (absence of user account, incompatibility of word password, whatever)?When you say "proxy auth", you mean identifying you as the user admin and then using the "proxyauth' mail server owner command to switch to the other user?
Or are you talking about using the plain SASL authentication and sending theFor an example of the former, see MOS knowledge article Doc ID 1387203.1.
For an example of the latter, see MOS Doc ID 1012047.1.If you do the first, it makes sense. You are logged on as an administrator and then tried proxyauth to another user, but it failed, so you're always connected as administrator.
If you do the latter, I expect this connection failure. So if this is the case, please open a case of pension so we can report a bug.

How to configure on Windows Mail and separate accounts and still allow everyone to access the main existing account located on Outlook. I need 3 boxes of mail on the ISP first, then add them to each individual windows user logon? Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem
For Windows Mail, get 3 email accounts of your ISP and set up 3 user logons. Then each logon can have its own separate e-mail account. Boulder computer Maven

I tried to link my local user account with my Windows Live account and get an error on the RPC server not found message. I want to connect with my Windows Tablet that I've linked to my Microsoft account and want to do the same thing with my Windows 7 PC. When I click on add the ID I am sent to the download page of Windows that says: I'm to download Windows 7 ID Wizard, but which actually download is Windows Essentials 2011 and files do not include an assistant nor does it include Live Mail.
I use Outlook 2010 vs Live mail on my PC. That's the problem with a link to my online account?
I know that the wizard comes with Essentials, but I thought it was also available standalone. Let me dig on my Windows 7 machine when I get home. I also like that the link obsolete even: the new Essentials is 2012. Which in fact, it is perhaps worth a try. Go to http://get.live.com and start the download and see if you get the companion and then can just uncheck all others adverse (unless you want it, some of these apps are decent).

We spotted some configuration scripts that had failed and rerun them now - hoefully additional users will be soon in the group/workspace. The 2 emails to you will not be a shock, because they are valid and unique.

We tried to implement the standard user to have limited access to the computer so that when we have people over, now, I can't able to carry anything as an admin if I right click on the menu on the icons. I am also unable to install new programs. The console command does not work for me to do that either, net user administrator / Active: Yes, just gives me an error code.
No luck. I tried to start in safe mode. The computer turns off automatically, and I had to make a fix to start. I now think I need to do a full reset, but did not have my vista copy from when I bought this computer. Is there a way to get a new copy without having to buy a new set of software?
Call the manufacturer of your computer. Request a set of recovery disks. Total cost is minimal, and it's a set that you should / must have.
The set allows to restore your computer.
Sure, if you are able to back up files that you want to keep before launching the recovery disks.
