Disabling the setting to "create a new account".
I am currently using Windows 7 and have an administrator account for me and a standard account for my teenage daughter.
My question is, when she wants to change anything that affects essentially the entire computer - she is able to simply create a new account with administator properties. Is there a way I can disable this if only an administrator can create a new account?
Standard accounts cannot be created by normal means administrator accounts. If your girl can do what she so knows how to hack his way through the windows. There is nothing you can do to avoid it. Better to give it its own machine and keep your machine for you.

Photosmart 6520 - establishment of eFax with greyed the button "create a new account.
I just bought a Photosmart 6520 new and am setting up eFax service. While he was trying to set up eFax "create a new account" button is grayed out, do not allow me to create an account. I found a HP support document for my printer which helps with the implementation of eFax. On the document it says:
NOTE: If the button create account is unavailable or greyed out, the printer is already registered with eFax.
I didn't record the printer with eFax, but just to check that it was wrong, I clicked on "login to eFax and clicked 'forgot number?' when you are prompted for an eFax number I never was affected. I put my email address and the message verified, as I expected, that the account was not in their database. I then did a search on the forum where I found a topic 'Registration of EFAX' that said, it has been resolved. The solution to say
"I'm sorry to hear that you have a gray button to create an eFax account for your Photosmart 6520.
The questions that you have, please call HP Cloud Services at 1-885-785-2777 if you are in the USA/Canada region. »
I tried to call this number and it is an invalid number. I searched other corrections and I see not a published solution, but see that there is a problem with high frequency. Help, please.
Thank you

Here is the solution, if you do not have to hunt around with invalid documents, phone numbers, etc... as if I had to.
If you configure a printer offering eFax free, but when you create an account, eFax, the 'Create new account' button is gray, then here's what you do:
Call eFax @ 1-800-287-3499 and select "Sales". Do not select "Customer Support" because it prompts you to enter your fax number, you do not. Tell the sales person the question and ask to be transferred to a customer support agent.
Customer support agent will take information from you such as your zip code, your email, your hpeprint email address, type of printer and then open a ticket with a representative from hp for the configuration of the fax number.
You should then receive a fax of test from the person who took your eFax number. You will get also an email with the information you need for eFax, including your fax number and your PIN.
Good luck!

I suspect that you posted your question to the wrong thread
This requires only a minor change to the script above actually.
Something like that
$groupName = "group"$accountName = "user"$accountPswd = "password"$accountDescription = "A user" $esxlist = Get-VMHostforeach($esx in $esxlist){ Connect-VIServer -Server $esx -User root -Password "password" Try { Get-VMHostAccount -Id $groupName -Group -ErrorAction Stop | Out-Null } Catch { New-VMHostAccount -Id $groupName -GroupAccount | Out-Null } $rootFolder = Get-Folder -Name ha-folder-root Try{ $account = Get-VMHostAccount -Id $accountName -ErrorAction Stop | Set-VMHostAccount -Password $accountPswd -Description $accountDescription -AssignGroups $groupName } Catch{ $account = New-VMHostAccount -Id $accountName -Password $accountPswd -Description $accountDescription -UserAccount -GrantShellAccess -AssignGroups $groupName } $rootFolder = Get-Folder -Name ha-folder-root New-VIPermission -Entity $rootFolder -Principal $account -Role admin Disconnect-VIServer -Confirm:$false}

I just reinstall the operating system on my computer. I downloaded the latest version of Firefox and tried to connect to synch - I have no other devices connected outside of the computer, I just cleaned so I was unable to pair. I tried using the recovery key, but it would not allow me to continue. I tried to log in again, and then he said that my email didn't have an account. I created a new account with the same email that I used before and now none of my info (bookmarks / prefs / plugins) are here! Please help me to recover my previous Info!
Sorry, but the action to create a new synchronization with the same account caused e-mail address your data from the server. In addition, 'coupling' and the 'Sync' button has not been used in over a year, with 28 Firefox being the last version to use the old version of Sync. Then it uses Sync on a device as a backup, something that Sync was not intended to do service
Any chance that you have an old Time Machine backup?

When I opened TB, I don't see no information on the TB account that I used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only 'accounts'-'Create a new account - Email, Chat, newsgroup, feed'. Option: "view settings for this account" does NOT appear.
Also the main menu does NOT appear "Email - messages, write a new Message" or "Advanced functions", etc...
Real emails regarding the TB account I used for years are still present in the "users-> xxxxyyyy-> AppData-> Roaming-> Thunderbird' folder."

I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell inspiron one 19 desktop... your help will be very appreciated thanks in advance!
Here are the usual methods to solve this problem:
- 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).
- Logging in as a different admin account and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if create you an alternative admin account).
- Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you have activated the account administrator and know its password).
- Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have created such a keyfile).
- Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
If none of these standard precautions work for you, then the remedy will be painful. Post again if this is the case.

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).
