  I found that will help you solve your problem, the original instructions have been written by Shenan Stanley   Posts: n/a

  Re: Main administrator account appearing not If you can connect with the new account that you created (which should be an administrator account as well) then go directly to step 2 below. I suppose that you use the administrator account as your main account (bad idea anyway) and that means that you probably have Windows XP Professional * and *. somehow enabled the guest account or create a new account - or installed some patches that created a new account - as .NET. I guess also that (since you say "appear") you also use the 'Welcome' screen opening of session instead of the classic logon. (1) restart the system. Press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice on home screen. Type in "Administrator" (without the quotes) as the username and do not put in any password and logon. Work? (2) or follow the instructions below to add the administrator account of the Welcome screen * or * download/use TweakUI to choose that is visible on the screen of welcome and even set automatic logon if you want. How to add a user to the Welcome screen logon page: ------ 1. start regedit.exe (start--> RUN--> REGEDIT--> OK) 2. navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserLis t. 3. on the Edit menu, select new, DWORD value. 4. type administrator as the name, and then press ENTER. 5 double-click on the new value it the value 1 and click OK. 6. close the registry editor. The administrator account will now appear on the Welcome screen. You can use These same steps to control other accounts listed on the welcome screen. The value of the registry value to 1 to display an account or account 0 for hide an account. For example, to hide the user Bob account, add a value named "Bob" in the registry key identified in step 2, then set the value to 0. You can do the above with the Microsoft TweakUI PowerToy. http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...PowerToys.mspx ------ Automatic logons: ------ Method of Microsoft: http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315231 Method 2 of Microsoft: TweakUI for: http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...PowerToys.mspx control userpasswords2 method: (1) go to the Start Menu and run the box.

Now, uncheck the box "users must enter a user name and password... ». (4) hit apply and a dialog box will appear asking you to confirm the selected user password.

• Cannot create a new user account in Vista Home Premium

  Running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 installed, running on a LG laptop. I am set up as an administrator, but when you click through the steps to create a new Standard user account, it does not create and does not appear in the list of users.

  Any help is appreciated

  Hi B Pick,

  Thanks for posting us the Forum of community of answers.microsoft.com.

  Since he had been some time since your last post, we marked this as resolved.  Recently I saw messages and found that you had posted about it recently.  Sometimes if a thread shows solved it do not get reviewed again, so, my apologies, it took some time to answer.

  A point of interest in considering the issue of "unable to create a user account having administrative rights" is can create you an account that has no administrative rights from another account and then you use that has administrative rights?  Information Justin had submitted and information, I'm reviewing, it would be very beneficial for our steps in troubleshooting to have this documented as being verified.

  You would present to us in the forum if this is something you are able to accomplish in a new administrative account that you create for this system?

  In another order of ideas, it would be that there are suspicious software loaded on the system.  Try running scan of Virus and malware removal tool.

  Here are some links for the Microsoft-Authored applications for these procedures.  Check if these are products that you want to use, or if you have already produced in place for this activity to use them if you wish.

  You can download the Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool here:

• No administrator user account.

  I put up 2 new accounts of the user in addition to the administrator account when I logged into the admin account to check that everything was working the main administrator account has gone I have tried everything and I am unable to get it back.

  It comes to the way Windows works. (This is a feature, not a problem).

  Windows allows you to automatically hide the built-in Administrator account when any additional user is created.  The administrator account is still there and you can still sign in it, but to connect on it, you will need to use the classic logon screen.

  When the login screen appears with two other users, simply type Ctrl-Alt-Delete twice.  This will bring up the classic login window.  Just type in 'administrator' in the user name box and the password associated (if any) in the password box and you should be able to connect.

  FWIW: It is recommended to create a new [third] user with administrator privileges for the time that you need an administrator account and let the built-in account hidden for disaster recovery purposes.

• Problem with the administrator user account

  When I connect to my administrator user account a Windows Sidebar message immediately rises:

  "Settings.ini is being used by another process. Close the other program, and then click Retry, or click Cancel to exit sidebar. »

  The problem is that there is no other program to close so I click on no to cancel. There is also a message from Catalyst Control Centre (program of ATI technology video card) that comes immediately after the message of the sidebar:

  "The host application has stopped working a problem caused the program blocking works correctly." Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. »

  I click Close Program, but no notice is. Try using Windows, I get the message "help topic is not found." I tried the system information (msinfo32.exe) and get the message "cannot collect information cannot access the Windows Management Instrumentation software.» Management of Windows files may be displaced or missing. » !!!

  All the above problem ONLY happens in the administrator user account. Both regular user accounts work fine. Windows help works very well, information system works very well!

  I'd appreciate any help to solve this problem of crazy.

  If you "move" the files/folders to PUBLIC folders, you can then access them when you are in the new admin account and then you can place them in your personal folders.
  If you do not Move To and copy to options in your context menu, here is the tutorial to "help":
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/89196-context-menu-add-copy-folder-move-folder.html

  When you have completed the tutorial, try this...
  Right click on any folder/file > click Move To > scroll to the destination where will be moved to the folder/file > click on move.
  That's all. The file/folder is moved.

  Public folders are accessible to all user accounts on the computer.

• Cannot create a new folder name

  Cannot create a new folder and name it.  The name I give always comes back again record when I hit enter.

  I'm assuming that happens with all new folders in the special folder that you use and that you use a "legal" name for the folder - but that is determined when you answer questions of Malke.

  It's maybe a permissions issue.  You will have to perhaps take full rights on the folder or even take in charge of the case.

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

• program user accounts: administrator user account

  I created a user not knowing account is the user account administrative and when a phone rang I confirmed the password without remembering what I wrote, it "administrator user account" to change / remove it completely. Because I can't even open the computer programs, it blocks everything.  (b) I've recreated a 'Standard user' account, but it doesn't have the same functions.  PLEASE HELP ITS URGENT

  You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

  All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

  If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
  NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

  If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

  Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

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

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

  Exit the command prompt.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Need permissions in Win 7 to take possession of the corrupt administrator (user) account

  I have a corrupt administrator user account that is only available in safe mode, at the command prompt.  I created another user account that gives me the Windows interface and I'm now trying to "own the administrator account to copy my files to my new user account."

  I am not able to access or change anything from anywhere or management; (Registry, other user accounts, other folders or files, properties or fields etc.) due to the restrictions on my PC.  I tried to use the takeown.exe tool, but I'm not sure what should be entered in the command line.  I read on the parameters to TO, but do not seem to get any results.

  Your advice is appreciated... Thank you!

  Since you were using the command prompt window when you created the new user, I just assumed you have made using the command:

  NET user newuser * / add

  where 'newuser' is the name of the new user?

  Did you also give this privilege to administrator newuser entering control:

  net localgroup administrators newuser / add

  While logged as administrator?

  It would be necessary to perform the actions that you are trying to do.

• Access to my files on a nonadministrator account administration user account.

  You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. The ADMIN account in trunk

• Cannot create the new drive and impossible to reduce c drive I want...

  My laptop disk management displays the following information...

  (1) healthy OEM 14.75 GB partition

  (2) 200 MB Healthy (System, active, primary partition) (containing the system files)

  (3) c: in good health (start-up, swap files, dump, primary) (which contains Windows) total 421 GB, free 400 GB (which contains Windows)

  (4) D: sound logic GB 29 disc

  I want to shrink the C drive in 30 GB and want to do at least 3 drives more. I also have linux in the D drive.

  so when I want to shrink C drive, then it shows the size of available shrink space in MB 212653 and total size after shrink 219284MB. This means that my C drive will at least 219284MB. but I don't want that.

  Another problem, when I tried to create a new simple volume the following error comes.    You cannot create a new volume in this unallocated space because the disk already contains the maximum number of partitions.  What can I do?

  The existence of files across the disk will limit the amount by which you can reduce the volume.  You can defragment to reduce this, but there will always be property files that will create a limit for you.  I had to do a full install in a 70 GB partition for Windows CE - with my first attempt to install, I could not it less than 250 GB even if I tried to partition when installing Win7 had finished.

  I think you'll have to decide a complete reinstall to resolve the issues, but that's just my opinion.  During installation, choose the option to partition the drive & set it to create a partition that is not less than 70 GB and Windows will install fortunately in this.  You can then use the rest for a partition of data user files.

  You don't mention your brand of PC, but even once, as Palcouk said, you will have some facility in order to safeguard the partition image factory of the manufacturer of the PC in DVD or USB [Dells certainly have the USB option for this].  Fix this before whatever it is that you will destroy this partition when reinstalling and might also do so just try to move partitions.
