How can I change my standard account to administrator for windows 8
Hello
Somehow, I changed my account from administrator to a standard account and now I can't access anything whatsoever. I tried everything, I tried to access the admin command prompt. and he wouldn't let me do. I tried to add a user, and he wouldn't let me I need permission from the admin. I tried to change my account type, I need permission to do so. I have no power. It also says on my photo account it is locked.
Any help would be appreciated... I hope that Ronnie could help me.
Thank you

Original title: uac is restricting my access Add or change account
My uac has no opition for Yes just not how to change my standard account to administrator account
and how would I do that I deleted my hidden administrator account and my off my guest account so if I didn't change anything, I have to be an administrator if he allows me to have Yes tab revealed to a click...
When you say that you moved your hidden administrator account, are you talking about the account named "Administrator"? Since it is a built-in account, Windows won't let you remove it.
If you are referring to your own admin account then removing would be to throw out your safe master key. I can't quite work on how you could do that, but you can get it from this reckless action as follows:- Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
- Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
- Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
- Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
- Select 'Repair' when prompted.
- When you are prompted, select System Restore.
- Configure Windows to a point before you did what you did.
- Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

How can I change the MotoBlur account, the phone uses?
If I swap two phones Atrix, I suppose swapping SIM cards will not change the MotoBlur account that each phone is configured for.
So, how do we change what MotoBlur account an Atrix connects to?
You can swap sim cards, but you will need to re-enter the motoblur password associated with the phone to continue using it. Unfortunately, I don't think that you can swap accounts motoblur without a factory reset of the phone.
