Help! Cannot return to admin account

• 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.

• 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.

  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.

• Cannot connect to my admin account!

  Windows Vista SP1 - after you install the update for IE8 (KB976749), I'm able to access my admin account ("service user profile Service does not have the logon - user profile cannot be loaded")!  How can I solve this problem and the newspaper on my admin account?  Thanks in advance for the help... Should I just try to inunstall the update and then see if I can connect?  Or is there another way to access my admin account (via the command prompt maybe)?

• I can not using F8 safe mode, so I can not get access to my admin account and therefore cannot uninstall my program

  original title: administrator, f8 safe mode access

  My computer problem begins with not being about to uninstall a program. I need administrator permissions. I am the administrator with a password. I'm not invited to give a. Nothng happens when I press a button with a shield on it. I received another message that tells me "unable to open the access control editor: the system cannot find the specified file. I found the instructions online to restart the computer (by pressing the F8 key) in safe mode. Once in safe mode I can essentially take possession of the C drive and reset admin ACCT. in SUMMARY, I can't have with using F8 safe mode (I tried once bagillion) so I can not get access to my admin account and therefore cannot uninstall my program. Can anyone help?

  I don't know anything about "reset admin account" but here are two things that may help the case to start in safe mode.  First, enter the mode safe mode with f8 key is a matter of time.  On my computer (Dell) during the boot process, I'm going to get a screen send me options of start of f2 and f12, which is to enter the BIOS.  I can start hitting key f8 then but you will in safe mode unless I'm hit immediately after that the screen with f2 & f12 choices goes.  I just hit several times for a few moments at this time.

• Help recover my admin account?

  Here's the deal:
  On my laptop, I had only one account. This is an administrator account. I had to hide dethrone personal reasons, so I created a fake account with standard user privlages, then to hide the admin account using "regedit", making it invisible on the login screen.

  Now, I have to go back, but I can't show it because apparently the standard users cannot change the registry. I also tried to make a new admin account, but I have to be admin to make another account.
  Whenever I try something, a window pops up that says I need permission admin do it and enter an administrator password to continue, but there is no text box or anything to click. And my admin account doesn't have a password anyway, so...

  Please help and keep the dummed down. Haha I know somewhat what I'm doing, but I'm not an expert... yet.

  Thank you

• A technician had me create a new admin account now my original CD is missing, I need help

  A technician of a software company had me create a new admin user account to install a pesky software package. Now I can't see my original admin account. I need this back, I really don't want to have to put everything in place from scratch. Help please.

  You were probably using the built-in account named "Administrator".  This account is not intended for use on a daily basis, but as an emergency backup.  If you use it every day, you run the risk of corruption - and might be stuck without a viable account with administrator rights.  For this reason, Windows XP automatically removes 'Administrator' from the home screen as soon as another account was created.

  You can always get the account administrator as follows:

  If you have XP Home, restart the computer Safe Mode by pressing the F8 key immediately after powering the completion test.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited for a long time to start tapping and you have to start over.  Once Windows starts in Mode safe, you will see the administrator account on the Welcome screen.

  If you have XP Pro, you can use Mode safe mode as above or, with no other connected user welcome screen, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE.  The 'classic' logon screen appears.  Type administrator as the user name and any password assigned you.  The default password is blank (no password).

  However, I strongly suggest that you stop using the account "administrator."  You can copy the preferences, appearance and the documents of the original ' administrator' account to the new one that you have created (although you will need to temporarily create another account with "computer administrator" privileges to make the copy).  For instructions, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151 simply treat the administrator account of origin as "corrupt" account referenced in the article.
