• 8.1 window isn't downloading store as message is coming that you must enter the administrator account.

  8.1 window isn't downloading store as message is coming that you must enter the administrator account. I already use admin account. How to solve it?

  Original title: Update window 8

  You may not use the store from the built-in Administrator account (the one that is actually named 'administrator'), because this account is supposed to be a backup for emergencies only.

  If you create your own account with a different name (it may still be level administrator), you can use the store.

• Passwords do not work to retrieve the files that I locked for the protection of personal information under my administrator account.

  I had some that I have files protected by Word, under my administration account that s wa also password protected. recently, I had to have my computer reformatted and returned it to me without administrative access, research nothing same and none of my passwords work to open these locked files. Please help me... inside one of them was a picture of my husband roommmate that he has lost the war. I need to these files and photos.  Thank you!  BTW I don't know if I have windows xp or pro.  Thanks again

  Would you be able to help me more if I had administrative control?  Because the place that did that at my computer only altered my administrative control, if I'm not mistaken it is still mine.

  At this point, you should probably take the computer to the one who did what they did and ask them to retrieve the files for you.

  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.

• 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.

• no administrator account - cannot remove other accounts

  recently to create new account on the computer form ym administrator accont and tried to make one of them administrator instead of mine. somehow, that didn't work now none of the administrator account, all are standard. I am trying to delete other accounts, but I can't because it is written enter administrator password, but it does not work. I don't have the fingerprint reader because I hated that and I can't put it back on because, once more, do not have the apparent administrator password to put it on. What can I do to create an account administrator or make it mine admin again?

  Your post is quite dispersed and hard to read, but consider that most of the problem is that you have not all administrator accounts. The first thing to try is to start safe mode. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. That you will get to the menu on the right where you can use your arrow key to select Mode safe [Enter]. The built-in Administrator account is disabled by default in Vista. However, if no other administrative accounts exist on the system it can be activated. If this is the case, you will see an icon for the administrator on the homescreen mode without failure. Sign in (password will be white) and then go to control panel > user accounts and make changes to the user to other accounts on the system. You can then follow the General instructions for setting up 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 whether taking the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) or a knowledgeable friend is the best solution for you.

  If you don't see the icon for the administrator mode safe account, then the built-in Administrator account is always disabled.

  1. you will need to use NTpasswd to enable (disabled by default) built-in Administrator account and set a password to null (empty). Allowing this account will put an icon for it on the logon screen so that you can then connect.

  http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

  Download CD (.iso) image and burn as an image, not as data. You will need a third party burning software. Then boot with the CD that you created and follow the directions. After you are done with NTpasswd, remove the CD and restart the computer. Log on to the administrator account that you enabled.

  2. Once you have logged on to the built-in Administrator account, go to control panel > user accounts and make changes as you wish. I suggest making an account administrative 'tech': call 'Tech' or 'CompAdmin' - at this time there. See the end of this post for creating users in Vista.

  3 log on the built-in Administrator account and CompAdmin. While in CompAdmin, turn off the account administrator 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.

  Setting up 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 an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. 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 it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

  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. 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!

• 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 downloaded a free program Adobe Reader and it also downloaded a hard back of the system, I tried to uninstall.  It restarted my computer, now I can't enter my administrator account on normal setting on Safe Mode, which is weird and I don't see most of my programs saved to my desktop. I can however enter the secondary account on normal mode, but it won't let me uninstall or to install anything whatsoever. He always goes for the administrator account, and then when I put it in password error. I can't install or uninstall programs either in SafeMode on the administrator account.

• XP has changed the user accounts is now impossible to access the administrator account

  Something has gone wrong when changing my user accounts. I don't have an administrator account can create a. I can't even restore my system. It doesn't let me do anything! What to do Help!

  You use the built-in account named "Administrator"?  If so, the behavior you describe is "a feature, not a bug."

  Windows XP hidden administrator account when a user account is created (because it's a good idea not to use administrator systematically; it should be saved for emergencies).

  You access the administrator account integrated differently depending on whether you have XP Home or XP Pro.

  For XP Home:

  You must restart in Mode without failure.  Restart the computer and start typing the F8 key as soon as the initial startup process is finished.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and you have to restart again.   If you do it right, you will see the white Advance Boot Options menu on black (image).  Use the up/down arrows and the Enter key to select Mode safe because your mouse does not work on this screen.  Once the computer starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen.  If you have not changed the password, the password is blank (no password).

  For XP Pro:

  Follow the signs for XP Home Edition, or in the Welcome screen, with no logged-in user, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice.  The 'classic' logon box will appear.  Type "Administrator" (without the quotes).  Once again, the default password is empty.

  Once you enter the administrator account, create an account with "computer administrator" privileges for occasions when you need (for example, to run the system restore or create accounts).  You can use any name you want (other than Administrator), such as MyAdmin.

• 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.
