  WIndows Xp requires that you have at least one administrator account. Once you create an account with administrator privileges by default admin account that becomes hidden. Once the default admin account will be hidden it is only accessible via safe mode. It is a safety device that repeatedly saw situations where the default Administrator account has been used to record a computer because the accounts created become corrupt.

• While creating a new account, my own disappeared "computer administrator account.

  When I created a new user account for my girls, my own family's missing "computer administrator account. Everything that I have now is my "acct kids" who says it is my "admin acct comp' now and all my icons, Favorites, all is gone and can't find it. I didn't delete it, I don't think. When I go to remove user accounts, it isn't here either. I made a password for my account before it disappeared however. Can I retrieve it somehow like that? I'm so disappointed.

  It is a feature, not a bug.

  Windows XP has a built-in account named "Administrator" (without the quotes).  The design idea was that you should only use this account for "emergencies" and not to use it on a daily basis.  This is because that the accounts of users, sometimes, be damaged, it is useful to have a verified account with full administrative access that you can use to fix things.

  To "enforce" this idea (or at least to encourage users to follow), as soon as you create a new account with "Computer administrator" privileges, Windows XP hidden administrator on the Welcome screen.

  The administrator account is still there.

  If you have Windows XP Pro, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice during to the home screen when you are logged on all accounts.  You will get the "classic" logon window  Enter Administrator as the user and the password defined.

  If you have XP Home Edition, you must start the computer Safe Mode by repeatedly pressing the F8 key just after the restart.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited too long to start typing and have to start over.  You can use this method without failure for XP Pro as well.  Once Windows starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account appears on the Welcome screen.

  You have two options at this point: (1) make a new "computer administrator" account for your everyday use and copy to administrator stuff (and then let administrator not used except for emergency situations) or (2) create a "computer administrator" account that you will use that with the exception of emergency situations and make administrator appear on the Welcome screen.  I suggest you to option (1).

  (1): see "workgroup" mode here--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151 account 'Administrator' you used is the "corrupt" account the "new user profile' is the new account that you create which has"computer administrator"privileges and you will need to log on to an account with "computer administrator" privileges to do all this - which can be the 'kids' acct (which, depending on your position, does not have these privileges).

  (2): make the administrator account visible on the homepage: http://www.theeldergeek.com/missing_administrator_account.htm
  C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT allows you to make a backup of the registry before start you.

  Note: once you have things under control and have a spare part "computer administrator" account, regardless of how you choose to do, I suggest you do your children has a "Limited user" account to limit the amount of malice, they are able to do (of course, if they are more than 8 years they will be able to find a way to work around this problem).

• My administrator account disappeared when I created another account

  I recently bought a refurbished Windows XP computer. I used it at home. Previously, I had not created additional user accounts. I had been using the administrator account that my own user account. But I wanted to create additional accounts with limited access to resources.

  I created an account called James. I had not yet learned how to restrict privileges, James was a default Administrator account. I was going to change that later.

  But here's the problem: my administrator has disappeared. It does not appear as a choice when you start Windows. Also, when I use James, I have only limited access to resources. I had installed Microsoft Office, for example, but cannot access these programs. Furthermore, I can not access all my files from the user.

  What can I do? What happened to my administrator account?

  Try to start safe mode and see if your original admin account exists. There should also be a third account admin without password (if you want to use this account to your problems just press ENTER when you are prompted for a password) which is only accessible in Mode without failure. See below for instructions.

  How to restore an Administrators account that was accidentally deleted before the creation of the new Administrators account?  Windows XP

  I have another account directors, but it changed right before user privileges.

  Windows Xp has a default Administrator account that are visible only in safe mode when a new admin account has been created. Cannot delete the administrator account by default no matter what you do. When you remove a user, and then you get these options on the screen:

  (a) delete files
  (b) keep the files
  (c) cancel

  If you have selected a) then the files are well and truly gone. I'm sorry. However, if you selected option b) then you will be able to see the profile in C:\Users folder.

  Restart the computer in Safe Mode. When you are prompted to choose an account select administrator. Re-create the user profile.

• Created 2 standard user accounts and now the admin account is inaccessible. How to access my administrator account?

  I have Vista Edition Home Premium.  I got the account administrator and only called 'everyday', which were both available on the Welcome screen.  I was usually you log in to the admin account for my daily use of the computer, but realized that it was a bad idea.  I created a new account, he made an admin account and called "administration".  I changed then the administrator account, I had used so far for a standard account and named it 'everyday', which makes the account would connect you to our daily use.  Finally, I created a new standard account called 'secondary' for my husband to use.

  Now, when I turn on the computer, only accounts that I am able to connect in the Welcome screen are 'everyday' and 'secondary '.  I tried to find articles that would already be answering my question, but good solutions I've seen do not work or are not completely suitable for my situation.  I know the administrator account exists, I don't know how to connect to it.  How can I access my administrator account now?  Things like system restore and cmd / 'run as administrator' failure because I don't have privileges admin so I can't even begin to perform these tasks.

• 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.)

  1. 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.

  2. Click on the standard account and then click on change the account type.

  3. Select the type of account you want, and then click on change the account Type.

• Ability lost access administrator account and create files (using Windows 7)

  Running windows 7, administrator account has disappeared and cannot access (it is listed as a user with permissions (mine has changed and he's been a user listed as S-1-5-21-3964978265-1859684145-9075597-1000 and finally managed to remove it (I think)) and the ability to create folders, or by clicking right in applications.)

  Clicked on what I thought, it was a reliable site, the message says that I had to update Flash to enter the site, after a large number of ads downloaded and changed my browser; I just uninstalled from this time, installed backup of the previous day and blocked unwanted applications through my Norton.

  I don't know if there is something else that is affected.  How can I fix it, my level of knowledge is limited on what I should and should not on my system.
  You can probably fix your problem by using the system restore. Here's how it works:
  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 in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key.

• sid number was change now there is no administrator account on my pc, how can I retrieve or create account

  I can't my files such as images, ect. some how the account on my windows has changed as a guest, please help, thank you, Tony

  It is impossible to remove the built-in Administrator account. Windows will not let you.

  Now, you must do two things:

  1. Keep tap F8 at startup to start the machine in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore setting up Windows to a point still, things worked.
  2. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key.
