Can not activate the Vista administrator account

Trying to access the admin account to change some settings in outlook.  After visiting the forum have tried the following: CMD CMD in the search box, make a right click, run as administrator

Type: net user administrator/activate: Yes – it's the answer

The syntax of this command is:

NET USER

[username [password I *] [options]] [/ DOMAIN]

username {password I *} / add [options] [/ domain]

username [/ TIMES: {time I have all THE}]

Also tried: net user administrator activate: Yes This is the answer

System 5 error

Access is denied

You have correctly entered the order, and you do not use from an elevated command prompt.

Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [provide the password/OK UAC]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

Exit the command prompt.

Note that you must have a space after "administrator" and before the backslash.

  • Can not activate the discovery network in Vista

    I just reinstalled Vista on a laptop and went to connect to a wireless network that previously worked before the re installation of Vista.  Network discovery was off so I turned on and then you click on confirm and return to the window and it is still off.  So, I can't turn it on.  Any ideas please?

    Hello

    1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    2. What is the accurate and complete error you get when you try to activate the service?

    3. What is the security software installed on the computer?

     

    Method 1.

    Step.I

    Make sure that the following services are enabled on the computer.

    (a) click Start and type "services.msc" in the search and click on services and ensure that these services are enabled:

    -TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service

    -DNS Client

    -Function Discovery Resource Publication

    -SSDP Discovery

    -UPnP device host

    To start the service and set it to automatic, follow these steps:

    (b) right click on each of the services listed above and click Properties.

    (c) click the general tab, and then, next to startup type, select automatic.

    (d) click on apply and then click Start.

    Step.II

    I suggest that you can exercise SFC scan and check if TI the problem persists. To do this, please see the following article. The SFC/SCANNOW command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    For more information how to make SFC / scan, please follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Step.III

    Try setting your computer unbootable inClean State and check to see if the same problem happens. Setting of the clean boot state system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    Step.IV

    The problem can also be caused by your security such as anti-virus program or a firewall of Windows /Defender that can have conflicting parameters as to not not to perform certain tasks. I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall and check the result again. You must activate new security that you was disabled programs.
    Disable the antivirus software:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2.

    You can update the network drivers and check.

    Update a hardware driver that is not working properly: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-US/Windows-Vista/Update-a-Driver-for-Hardware-that-isn ' t-work properly

    Refer.

    I hope this helps.

  • Help and Support does not work does not correctly when you are connected to the Vista administrator account

    I have the same problem exactly as described Flashimator don't except this: the problem occurs only when I am logged into the administrator account.  Support seems to work normally in my user account.

    I should add that my HP laptop has an OEM program which seems to be an overlay on the Windows Help.  It is also not available in the administrator account.

    PS It is often more important to have help available when logged in as an administrator as I do only when I have to (as in the resolution of problems).

  • Thunderbird, re - install can not find the e-mail accounts in the previous drive C:\

    QUESTION; Where should I go from here?

    STORY:
    My C:\ drive (!.) TB) began to balk when after that I got a little more than 800 GB stored on it. My tech told me that the case of the machine would hold two internal HDs. We bought an extra 1 TB HD and it installed Windows essential, all the drivers and my regular backup utility so that we can make an immediate reflection of the drive on an external hard drive.

    Two internal parts carry Windows 7 64 bit, and by changing the Boot Setup, I can boot from either - no errors or red flags.

    I downloaded TB 31.0, installed on the new disc. then copied it to App Data and Application Data including all files in TB from the old HD (2 Windows user accounts) to discrete files on an external drive. From there on, I copied them into the appropriate folders for the two users on the new HD. Thunderbird will otherwise not them, even if I used each solution and tip, I learned with TB on a dozen years. I worked on number of days following, checked several similar articles on the forum and do not see a solution. (And my tech has never wanted to learn something about Tbird; nor has he had to in the past.)

    I just uninstalled Thunderbird 31.0 and deleted content under TB in App Data records (2) and (2) the Application data on the new drive C:\. I first of all confirmed that all previous data is available on the old HD and that the copy on the external drive is complete and accurate - and without any locking Windows security. Local settings on both old-reader/users folders were locked and could never access, but some TB related files were there in the past.

    What should I do? (1) install an older version of Thunderbird and hope I can marry the old files in? or (2) what can suggest you?

    Thanks in advance. EDJ.

    I solved the problem with a drawer 3 rd (not the best) solution. I put all the profiles of previous TB (with all mail folders) side; then configure new TB accounts access to Gmail and Yahoo mail.
    Once I drained all accumulated mail servers, I'll go through the old records (under the old profiles) and carefully, one at a time, move the folders that I need to keep the local folders account. That method appeared in an another related posts; practical, easy and he killed me.

  • Can not activate the WLan on Satellite L350D

    Hello

    Your description is a bit confusing.
    So here are my Tips how to connect the laptop for WiFi using the Vista operating system.

    First check if your WiFi is turned on. You must use the key FN + F8 to go tot eh card WLan and then turn on the WLan switch on the side of the laptop.

    According to your WiFi (Atheros or Intel) card I advise to use a WLan configuration as Atheros Client Utility or Intel ProSet Utility tool.

    You can use these tools to configure WLan. I use one of these tools and I can connect and configure the WiFi network very easily.

    If you want to use the Vista WLan own configuration options, can access the network locations and right click on the WiFi connection.
    Choose then rebuilt Waln connection or something like that.
    Then choose your WLan which has been configured on the router WLan and put the right encryption settings and you should be able to connect to you wirelessly.

    Good bye

  • Can not activate the sound

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 1232nr. Everything has been working great until two days when I realized that the mute button at the top of the laptop is RED (silent) and I can't seem to "reactivate" it or change the volume using the key above the keyboard.

    When I go into Control Panel, Manager of devices, it is said that everything works correctly. My headphones will work, but other that that, I can not all sound from the internal speakers. I see green bars move when I music, etc, but I am unable to hear it without a helmet.

    I spoke with a colleague and she said her daughter has had the same problem and they had to download something, but she can not remember what it was.

    Anyone able to help? Thank you in advance.
