• Cannot access the Microsoft Update Site

  I get the following error message when you try to access the update site:

  Microsoft Update could not be installed on your computer
  

  Make sure that you log on as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group, and then try again.

  More troubleshooting options

  • If your computer is connected to a network and the problem persists, contact your system administrator to see if your Microsoft Update settings are managed by using Group Policy.
  • If your computer is not connected to a network, or if your system administrator has not disabled Microsoft Update, check if the Windows Update service is disabled or stopped. For information about how to start a service, search help and Support on your computer.

  Note: If you encounter problems with the installation of Microsoft Update, you can continue to get updates for your computer by going to Windows Update in control Panel.

  [Error number: 0x800A01AE]

  I AM logged on as administrator (it's actually the only account on the system other than the guest account: I have renamed the main administrator account and use it as my account {I know this isn't the best practice, but I always did like it and it makes things easier being the administrator, especially since I changed the name for security reasons}).  I have a small home network wireless, but have no defined group policy (no server - just-to-peer).  The Windows Update Service is launched and running (but I stopped and restarted it just to be safe).

  I don't quite know what to do next.  I would like to be able to access this site for updates that cancelled or failed during the update process automatic (and who seem not to be re - that appear as options when I check the updates).

  Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated...

  Hello

  You try to go actually on here Windows Updates site?

  http://www.update.Microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us

  This site does not work for Vista. You must use the Windows built-in to Vista updates or download them
  sites I posted for you last time.

  Absolutely do not use the default Administrator account. Just make a new Admin account to
  use and leave the other to test and difficulty. In fact, make an Admin NOW account to use to test and fix
  According to the needs. If your sole administrator corrupts you will have a big headache.

• Cannot access the user account

  I recently sent my computer in my college of departmental it to update some software. They could not access my account due to a password. They bi - passed this by making two accounts 'Test' and 'comments'. If I'm going to one of these accounts I can go to c:\Users[user-name]\Music\iTunes\iTunes and I can see my old account named "owner". However when I connect 'owner' is not an option for a click for a login account. All my old files are always under the account of 'owner '. How can I get back "owner" as I use an account to which?

• Cannot access the MSN account on cruise but was at home

  Original title: Edit profile

  I was on a cruise and tried to read my e-mail using the system on board the ship. I have been unable to access my e-mail address because I was asked to provide security. One of them has been my year of birth, in 1937, but the system says that it wasn't the right answer. He asked me my favorite writer, or something like that, and I don't remember giving this MSN when I opened my account.
  I also tried on one of the ports of call, and it was the same thing.  Both cases, the system told me I've tried too many times.
  When I got home last night, I was able to access my mail with no problems. I found an e-mail from MSN account auditing Services (which I think is wrong) telling me that my account will be suspended if do not react quickly.
  How can I view my profile so I can see what security issues I gave MSN probably 10 years ago.
  Thank you.

• I have Windows 7 and cannot access the administrator account

  I am unable to enter my administrator account because I accidentally put the wrong password in place.  I don't remember to save my life.  Unfortunately, I do not have a disk or anything else as a backup so I don't know what my other options would be.

  I really, really need to access my photos and files from the admin account.  Is it possible that I can recover?  Help, please!

  We will put your computing experience on a more solid basis as follows:

  • A Windows repair CD is absolutely essential if you decide to do maintenance on your own PC. It takes only three minutes to burn a via the control panel / backup and restore. Given that you have never created one before, you now have these options:
    -Burn it on another computer.
    -Borrow one from a friend.
    -Buy one here: http://systemdiscs.com/
  • Start dieting solid backup on an external device. With your valuable photos right on your PC takes a lot of unnecessary risks.
  • Create, test, and document an alternative admin account, as you have a spare House key. It takes less than a minute.

  When you have your CD to repair Windows, then you can solve your current problem as follows:

  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Configure Windows to a point before you changed the password.

  I also created a new account but I couldn't access the UAC on this account either. I restarted my computer 2 times already. What should I do?

  Here you go:

  1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.

  2. select Repair from the menu.

  3. Select an administrator account, and then enter its password.

  4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.

• Cannot access the microsoft Web site using any browser

  Access Web sites

  Try all 3 browsers... Chrome IE7 and Mozilla. I can't to any microsoft Web site. No problem to do anything else.

  With Chrome... I get OOPS! and an error message. IE7 displays a page similar to AI "browser down" page and just microsoft

  sites.

  Thanks for any info

  I can't to any microsoft Web site.

  Sounds like a DNS issue.   Use nslookup to check.   Use ping n 1 w 1 to attempt to cache a browser search.  Use ipconfig/displaydns to check if the search is cached.   A problem with many Microsoft research is that they have several alias and have very short life values.   It is very difficult to take any advantage of cached searches.  An alternative is to substitute the search using your HOSTS file, but then the IP addresses of host Microsoft tend to be transitory.  In fact, this point suggests something to check first: make sure that there are no replacement of microsoft in your HOSTS file.   Remove them and do an ipconfig/flushdns, if there is.   ; )

• cannot access the files of another user with the admin account

  I'm on a computer with Windows Vista 64-bit home problems.
  I normally have the computer configured to connect automatically to a non privileged user and rarely use the admin account.
  Recently, I downloaded an update (Finally, more like a relocation to the latest version) and realized that I need the admin account to install properly for all users that UAC would make things a royal PITA with a zillion prompts.

  I quickly disconnected and logged in as admin. Then, I realized that the installation file has been stored in the "downloads" folder in my regular account.
  Worse still, I could not access this folder, or I couldn't tab of future security. All I could do was to 'change the property' to my admin account, but I really didn't block me on these issues. Even from Explorer using "run as administrator" gave me problems, although the DIR command in cmd.com would be the list of people.

  I used the "change user" function to log my account regular and checked the Security tab and saw that the "Administrators" Group had already read and checked 'total control '. Why can't access the admin account? As an admin with XP, I had free access to everything I wanted to leave that I wanted.

  What happens if I was a parent and wanted to check to make sure that my child was not software piracy or download illegal music that would get stuck with the fines because I'm his guardian? How would I go about checking his records?

  What happens if I was an employer at a small office using working groups and wanted to ensure that the employee was not downloading pornography?

  How can I use the powers of the administrator to access other files (regular) user?
  Why do I still need to ask this question? It was automatic under NT, 2000, XP and the various servers at least as high as 2003.

  I found the problem, it was ANOTHER problem with Norton Security Suite for Comcast.
  I uninstalled and did not only to release 100 GIGABYTES of space, my boot time has been cut to a quarter of the former time, and this problem has disappeared.

• Cannot access the password for administrator on Win7, how can we access this account?

  There are two accounts on this computer. An administrative and standard user.

  I can't access the administrative account. I forgot the password for this account.
  I can access the standard user account, but I can't change the administrative password because his account not administrative and I do not know the password on the admin account.
  How can I either change the standard user to admin user without having need of the admin password or how can I access the administrator account?
  The admin account is my main account with everything I need.
  His family win7 premium is a desktop computer.
  I, also, don't have Internet. The only internet I have is on my mobile phone with limited data.
  This is why I can't download anything to help.
  Help or knowledge is much appreciated.
  Thank you

  I can't access the administrative account. I forgot the password for this account.

  There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

  Hi Alyu,

  Thanks for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

  If I understand correctly, you can not log on to the Microsoft account and get an error. I'm sorry about that.

  1. When exactly do you get this error?
  2. What security software you are using on the computer?

  I suggest connect you to Microsoft Account by going online, i.e. account.live.com and check if you can login to your account.

  Please get back to us with the information required to help you further.
