• Help! Cannot return to admin account

  I'm running Windows 7 on a HP Pavilion g6. Somehow, my account went under standard user administration. I can't change this back. I tried a few different things without success. I tried to go through the cmd.exe using net user administrator / active: yes when logged in my profile. Did not work. Can not change via Control Panel (even though I used to, now I can't). I tried going through the local users and groups and well, can't find it. It is not listed under Computer Management (Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management). Had to do a search for secpol.msc, because it is not come immediately. I tried to open that and got an error strange message that something could not load. Looking now it gives nothing. It comes to MY computer, I always had administrator rights. Could the fact that I have blocked Web sites on my profile through familysafety.microsoft.com have had an impact on it? What else can I do to get the admin restored to my user account? I'm NOT a geek, but I'm not meaning well enough, as long as they are clear (help of screenshots). Help please!

  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.
  5. set Windows to a point before this problem occurred.
  6 plan ahead a little and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. Have a single administrator account is high-risk stuff.

• Cannot connect to admin account (the user profile Service failed)

  Hi all
  When I try to access my admin account, well I typed my password, BUT this message appears:

  User profile service failed
  User profile cannot be loaded

  I can get my guest very well account, but can not use my admin... anything that can help please!
  Anyone who can help would be great

  This problem may occur if the user profile folder is deleted manually. A profile that is manually deleted does not remove the security identifier (SID) of the list of profiles in the registry. If the SID is present, Windows will try to load the profile by using the ProfileImagePath that points to a nonexistent path. Therefore, the profile cannot be loaded. To resolve this problem, see here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215

• Cannot change my admin account

  Recently, I took my laptop to the team of geeks for some questions. The problems have been resolved and I was told that Windows 8 has been updated to the current version of mist. It comes to my laptop and I know very well that I was the administrator on this computer. I went to go delete an old user account using one of the family. I could very well remove it, but I noticed that there is an admin account. And now he says I am user of "standard". I tried to change my now 'standard' account to an admin and he won't let me. And the new admin account cannot be changed or deleted. It's just there and do anything for her. I was for sure the origin on the computer Admin account. But it seems that since my last update, it created another admin and just changed mine to the standard. Help, please. Thank you.

  Hi Chris,

  Thanks for posting the request in Microsoft Community Forums.

  1. When you say upgrade to the latest version? What is Windows 8.1?

  2. What is the name of the administrator account that you found?

  You will not be able to convert your administrator profile if you are using a standard account. That's why we need another administrator account to manage all other accounts. Try if you can connect to other administrator accounts and perform these tasks.

  I suggest you turn on the built in account administrator on Windows 8

  You must run the command from an elevated command prompt. To do that you must do the following:

  a. press on the Windows key for get in the Metro interface if you are not already there.

  b. type cmd and right click on the result of the command prompt to be displayed.

  c. open a list of options below. Select run as administrator it.

  d. accept invites UAC

  Enter the following command to activate the hidden administrator account:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes

  If you ever want to disable the account follow the same instructions, but run the following command instead:

  NET user administrator / active: No.

  Once you have activated the account, you will see that he listed in the user accounts Control Panel. Note that the account has not assigned a password to it, and that you should consider to set one to improve the security of the accounts.

  You can manage the accounts of current users and convert your administrator user profile.

  Hope this information helps. Response with status so that we can help you.

• XP admin account is hidden and in safe mode F8 annoys me but I cannot view the admin account.

  The admin account is hidden and it seems as my user account, but what built allowed me to install the drivers it isn't now.  Impossible to install a wireless card to get on the web.
  I followed the previous advice and used the SafeMode (F8) and got to the login screen, but my account does not allow me to view the account Admin don't want to rebuild again if I can avoid it. Any advice would be very welcome.
  Edit the registry key doesn't help either not that my account has no rights to add a key
  Thank you

  According to Microsoft: "This isn't a problem... it's a feature"...

  The normal behavior for Windows XP is to hide the built-in Administrator account once another user account is created.  Not rebuild your machine again because it happen.  One way around this problem is to create another administrator-capable user as an unprivileged user.  Then, when the account is not built-in Administrator, you will have a visible connection as admin user.

  As it is now, your solution is simple.  On the normal startup login screen, hit twice by the Ctrl-Alt-Delete key combination.  This will bring up a login screen standard where you can enter the user name and password (if any) of the built-in Administrator and you connect to your computer to a normal startup mode and make the changes you want.  (I recommend that you create a 2nd Admin user with the control panel of users)

• Cannot access hidden admin account?

  I use windows vista on a dell latitude D410. recently, I created an admin account hidden via regedit and deleted the original account administrator privileges. now, when I try Ctrl + alt + del on the logon screen, it does nothing. When I try to make everything about the privileges of the admin on the standard account, it asks the admin password, but does not allow for me to enter the password. Instead, it says to insert a smart card. I do not think that my computer can use smart cards... this version of windows vista was installed after I got the computer because it was running ubuntu previously. I can't run the command prompt as an administrator because of the above and the admin account does not display in SafeMode suggestions?

  EDIT: I think I can have somehow makes windows forget completely on the admin account, because the folder does not exist among consumers, hidden or not... even when you try to type complete the extension in the address bar, it indicates the path does not exist...

  Format the hard drive and reinstall Windows and your applications then leave the administrator account - and in particular the register - only.

• Cannot connect to Hotmail & Windows Live says cannot log off MSN account services.

  My problems began on 19 October. When to use Hotmail and move the Inbox, in the box sent to the deleted area, I noticed that the ads running on the right side of the page, were flicker for a moment. They were flickering or give me a snapshot, 1/2 second glimpse of the announcement, which was then directed to the side page humble. This happened whenever I would go with one mailbox to another mailbox. Finally, on some ads I noticed 'ad choice.' I'm here and renounced well over 150 ad sources.

  The same thing would happen on Yahoo Finance. The square ad that was intended for the right of the page, would try to open up to the left. Again, it was just for a moment, before the ads would find themselves on the right side.

  People were told to use IE 9.0 follow-up protection. I watched a video on it and decided to allow it. That did not help, I went back and disabled the follow-up protection.

  People have asked for a screenshot of the problem. I can't provide a screen shot of something which is an event and last only 1/2 second. Ads and tracking cookies and so forth are quire normal and predictable. However, the way in which they try to appear in my account Hotmail and Yahoo Finance is not normal and only started a few days ago.

  I decided to uninstall my IE 9.0 and did. Ads on Yahoo Finance are still there and blink in the upper left before going to their normal location in the middle of the right side. Ads on Hotmail ceased. 'IF' Hotmail is a separate program, then my new copy of IE 9.0 has not touched the issue of advertising and the absence of ads now can be due to several times, I clicked on 'choice ad' and selected.

  Now, I can not connect to Hotmail. I get these messages:

  1. on the left side, he says:
  Windows Live
  Disconnection is not complete...
  We couldn't you disconnect from these sites:
  MSN account services

  2. on the right side, he said:
  Complete the registration
  Try to clear all cookies from your browser, and then close all browser windows.
  How?< a="" link="" to="" "how"="" to="" clear="" all="" browser="" cookies,="">

  The link to the 'how' takes me a sign in Center of Windows help, where I see no sign, index.

  I deleted all of my temporary files, cookies, and browsing history. Yet, I can't properly log in Hotmail, and so far, the action of logging on Hotmail always took me at MSN dot com. Web page

  I have all the above questions, the incorrect display of ads or signature on Hotmail, when I do the test using a different browser beside IE.

  People tell me to repair-re-install Windows Vista and I'm not clear on why this is the fix here. The problem began just like ads displayed improprly on Hotmail and Yahoo Finance. I have subsequently, was to click on 'ad choice' and exclude certain ads. I also uninstalled IE 9.0. When I rebooted, Windows said there were 4 updates and 1 was IE 9.0. So, I went to leave install IE 9.0. I now have version: 9.0.8112.16421 version 9.0.3 update.

  The only thing that happened between the time the ads have been displayed correctly and when they were not displayed correctly, was an installation of 9 new Windows updates, the or around October 13. I have nothing after these updates. Then 19, here are the ads that sparkle, Flash for a split 2nd on the 'left' Hotmail (when I move around the mailbox may box) when they are intended to 'right' of the Web page.

  And now unable to disconnect Hotmail successfully. I deleted browser cookies, I think.

  Someone told me to find the cookies here: %userprofile%\AppData\Roam

  Thank you.

  Hi Ernest,

  Given that the problem is related to Hotmail & Windows Live, you can publish your application in Hotmail support forum for further assistance.

  MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan

  First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

  From the Mail menu bar, you select

  ▹ Connection Doctor window

  In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

  Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

• 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.

  Hi kuentin,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  (1) - what do you mean you have only 1 user account?

  When you set up Windows, you will need to create a user account. This account is an administrator account to allow you to set up your computer and install any programs that you want to use. And that's why the user account you are using is the administrator account.

  There is no way that you can create an administrator account, or by using a Standard account.

  (2) are you having issues during installation of the software or opening it?

  (3) what exactly happens when you try to open the software application?

  (4) should be codes error or error messages, if any?

  (5) what software are you trying to install or open?

  I suggest you go to the link below and read for more information on user accounts.
