Ho remove account of 'Other', Windows 8

I just reinstalled Windows 8. At the start, I was presented with two accounts, my own administrator and another named Administrator, but not one that I had created.

I read that this exists as part of the defense of Windows 8 and have disabled it expects just make my own account automatically. (I don't want additional accounts)

I am now presented an account ' other @ which I do not have a password and did not create and have to switch to my own account to connect.

How can I stop this happening?

Thank you...

By default, the account named 'administrator' should already be disabled; It's this way.  Further you should could not turn on or off using the default user from the control panel section (you should have had to use the MMC to do). Finally, the "other @ ' account you see is clearly corrupt.

Certainly something is very wrong with your installation and I would recommend repeat your Setup or you will most likely not to use the administrative restoration in the future.

  • Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to fix it?

    No Option to install repair - SAD

    Hello

    Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.

    I recently had a problem where Vista Business 64-bit would only boot to a black screen with a mobile cursor - KSOD.   Who, in searching the Web I found is a fairly common problem with Vista.  I discovered that my only option was about to reinstall Vista CLEAN and all the other programs I had installed under it.  I can't believe that Microsoft released the 'repair installation option"similar to that of Windows XP, where you can hit the"R"key during installation and we left with nothing but the"System Restore"options and"Startup Repair ".  Neither of which has helped in my situation.  Since then, this was a dual system boot with XP Pro, then any restore point has been removed from the partition to Vista anytime, I started another recognized problem, by Microsoft, which Microsoft has made no significant effort to fix, in addition to recommending that you hide the partion Vista in XP - a whole of XP.  That beats a little the entire purpose of dual boot.

    As I tried to start in safe mode, it left me at the same point as a normal boot - black screen with a cursor.  I tried ctrl + alt + delete and nothing. Two Windows RE options did not help me.  This left me no option but to the completely reinstall Vista.   Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.. Please don't tell me that it is because Vista uses an image file instead of an installation as XP system.   I see no other reason for not allowing the upgrade of outside BONE in addition to Microsofts greed and paranoia that he can transform the operating system easier to install illegally.  I hope that some third party has actually changed the Vista installation routine to allow you to install Vista on itself, because as it is, it's really hard for me to even recommend Vista as the operating system or install any where else, if not the only recourse after loading OS, is to reinstall completely.

    Adobe, Autodesk, and almost all other software publishers... allow you to perform a "REPAIR" of their software installation, if something prevents you to load after installation.  Even MS Office has a routine repair.  Ms has an internal version of the Setup routine which allows outside the OS upgrade option that you want to "Upgrade" / repair? ".  If not, why?

    «.. . After using XP's repair function, the operating system itself would become less stable and frankly not in a good state of repair. »

    As Todd, is the answer.

    "This response does not hold water as on one of my computers I've been running Windows XP for about four years now, after a repair install.

    Then, you were lucky.  Try to replace the system files on a computer that does not start even at a desk or safe mode usually will get a return to office, but will probably repeat the same problem in a few weeks.  Tech professional would only use this function to retrieve the data before a complete reinstallation.

  • Remove disks or other media.__Press press any key to restart

    Hello

    I've seen a few posts on this topic but not have been very useful.

    My computer (Dell Inspiron 2200) was relatively slow and I decided to reformat the machine.  After doing that it seems the hard drive was fried in the process that I have been unable to get the machine to boot properly after the reformatting process.  When I ran a diagnostic on the computer, a message was also discussed more leading to believe that this was the case.  This is why I took an old hard drive that I had and tried to use it on the machine.  I created a Windows startup disk by downloading the file and burn a disk.  I changed the order of BIOS to move the CD drive first on the list and the error "remove disks or other media."  " Press any key to restart" continues to be displayed.  Please help me

    Thank you

    There are two main reasons for the mistakes of certificate:

    1. Your computer's time is not set correctly.  Check your time year/month/day/hour/minute/timezone/light of day.  Right-click on the clock in your taskbar and select "set Date/time" and make sure you are ready approximately 5 minutes of real time (don't forget time zone and DST).
    2. The second reason is that Windows XP is not very good for updating root certificates.  Go to the following site:

  • Firefox will move behind other windows

    Y at - it a solution for the following bug?

    Open a firefox window and another under osx (lion or higher). Make sure firefox is focused. Now switch to another space (for example an application full screen) and then come back. Firefox now moves behind the other window.

    This bug is annoying, so please help me if someone know a solution.
    Thank you

    I finally solved the problem. If you create a second desktop computer, another problem occurred: firefox is always on each desktop. If you open a tab on desktop 1, the tab is also open on desktop 2. I wanted to solve this problem and I clicked on the icon of firefox, then in the menu options, and then click Assign votes to zero. This solves the problem where firefox was on each workstation, but also the development of waste and theft.

    In short:
    1. open a second desktop computer

    2. right click on the firefox icon
    3 options/assign None

  • Content of the Firefox window above other windows

    Okay, maybe it's a strange.

    Since the beginning of April, I had a problem with Firefox where when refreshes the contents of a tab (for example, on the tumblr dashboard), the content of the window will appear above any other window I opened.

    For example:
    Firefox is open, and I also (for example) Excel open with a spreadsheet that I'm trying.

    The two windows are maximized, and Excel in short - is on top of Firefox.

    Firefox is not visible at this point, with the exception of his bar in the task bar.

    Firefox updated then tumblr/echofon/whatever it is which is refreshing.

    This is for a reason any causes the Firefox window to be returned on everything that is currently under discussion - Excel, for example - but not Firefox brings into focus. To get rid of what I need to develop Firefox, then return to the program I was using.

    Are these ordinary web pages - it does not seem to be specifically associated with media players that write directly to the screen?

    Could you try to disable graphics hardware acceleration? As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

    You need to restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    If you restart Firefox, the problem is solved?
