How do I create a second account along side my only Admin account? (I have good need?)

I am new to Vista and Windows7 and all the reading I've done, I'm horrified to discover that I would have had a secondary user account whenever I go on the Internet and perform simple tasks.  (Right)?  I want to assure you that I know how to create the new account user correctly before I end up screwing up my brand new computer.  I lost my last one to a backdoor, OB had total control of my desktop and I have fear of death that does not happen.  Even a little paranoid, you could say!  So I apologize if this is a stupid and perhaps simple question for most of you guys... but for me, I need to make sure that I saw nothing!
In advance... Thanks for all the help!

Hello

Control Panel - user accounts - manage another account - then create a new account

Make a new ADMIN with password-after it's over - REBOOT (do not just Logoff) and
Log on to this account. Once you are sure it works at least just REBOOT again to your regular Admin
account. Use only a new fix and test ONLY, do not use it on a regular basis. You can even make
Another ADMIN and have a backup of your backup (I do).

You can then create a user account of same way (same password is easy) and use it as needed. Is it more
ensure that your other ADMIN - yes - how much depends on how and what you do, but it is a lot or a
panacea for problems of security. Added that many, including myself, think that it's more trouble that it's worth
to use a user account when you are the admin.

Make sure you have antivirus and antispyware when running, Windows Firewall and also have prerequisite programs
to help you in case of a malware attack and you should be good to go. UAC to work if you feel that you
need for increased security and don't mind the hassle.

Practice safe Hex is especially on the do not click on ads and do not install programs and games unless you have
verifed the sources.

-----------------------------------------------

Here's what I use and recommend:  (these are all free and there are other good ones out there programs)

Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

Prevx - Home - free

Windows Firewall

Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

Protected IE - mode

IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
(Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).

Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free

Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  • I have reinstalled the OS on my computer and Firefox wouldn't let sign me in sync, I created a new account and have lost all my info previous synched - help!

    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

    Good people you've heard of this one before:

    I can connect to my basic admin account, but not others.  I tried to create new user accounts after you delete the old user accounts but system would not apparently carry out process.  I get the following warning:

    Service user profile Service failed to connect
    User profile cannot be loaded.

    I tried all of the recommended patches (see list below)

    1 ran all appropriate steps as stated in the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215 - no joy
    There is not other profiles listed in the register except the administrator account on the basis and since I couldn't connect successfully to a user apparently newly created accounts, the profile has not completed the process of generation.

    2. I have not ran the SFC system - no joy.  He replied with the following: Windows Resource Protection did not find any breach of integrity.

  • If I create a second account (different) Zotero on the same PC, how can I configure it's empty without destroying all the records in the other account?

    I have long had a Zotero account and it works fine. I recently merged in a group with a few other people into account; We share the same set of references. Now I want to set up a personal account for different purposes, perhaps becoming a different group. When I try to set up the new user name and password, the same reference shows always. How can I start with an empty account for the new user name without clear items from the old account?

    I know Zotero and just the second jscher2000 tips - if you want to actually different accounts, you must use separate profiles of FF.

    The integrated solution for Zotero is to use groups for sharing of resources between people
    www.Zotero.org/groups/
    And have your own resources in a different group or in 'my library '.

  • How can I create a user account: username and password?

    I'm trying to transfer bookmarks Firefox from one machine to the other. I need an account to identify bookmarks I want, but as far as I know, I do not have an account of Firefox. So I try to create one on the old machine that I use to transfer bookmarks to the new machine.

    You can copy files in the profile folder of Firefox on a computer in the folder of the profile on another computer by copying the files on a removable USB (USB key).

    You can copy files like these in the Firefox profile folder to retrieve specific data.

    • bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
    • favorite backup: backups JSON in the bookmarkbackups folder
    • SQLite files cookies.sqlite (cookies) and formhistory.sqlite (saved form data)
    • logins. JSON and signons3.txt (decryption key) of the saved passwords in password manager
    • cert8. DB for stored intermediate certificates (Certificate Manager)
    • Persdict.dat for the words that you added to the spelling dictionary
    • Permissions.SQLite and, possibly, content - prefs.sqlite permissions and Site preferences
    • sessionstore.js to open and pinned tabs and tab groups

    You can retrieve more personal data.

  • How do I create a Parent account to Windows Live family safety?

    Hello

    I have a Windows Live account and I have created several others to implement parental controls of Windows, but I could not.  With all the accounts that I created, I continue to encounter one or two messages error with or the other account.  It is said that "this service is not available at this time" and other States that the account is not registered as a Parent.  I read the comments to discussion threads where advice is given on how to fix known issues associated with these error messages, and none of them work for me.  When I connect to Windows Live with an account, any account, they look alike, and it is never an option to add a child with the exception of the link subsumed under permissions.  When I click permissions and click to add an account, all that I see is the ability to add social media accounts in my Windows Live account.  I tried almost every permutation I can think to solve this problem.  Provide advice.  Thank you.

  • How can I create a new account or Contact using::InsertRow()?

    So I have an action button which is supposed to take the contents of a field and create an account with the value of the field, as its name on click.  The problem is that I'm being invited to enter the field to set values that seem misplaced.  Here is the code:

    name def = nvl (CompanyName_c, null)

    If (name! = null)

    {

    def companies = newView ('OrganizationProfile')

    def company = companies.createRow)

    def secCtx = adf.context.getSecurityContext)

    def user = secCtx.getUserName)

    company.setAttribute ('OrganizationName', name)

    company.setAttribute ('FacilityType_c', 'Other')

    company.setAttribute ('CreatedByModule', 'SALES')

    companies.insertRow (company)

    }


    In the beginning, it was making me a mistake to provide the CreatedbyModule, but now she is claiming the organizationProfileId.  When I try to save, it also shows that the PartyId is missing.  Unless I am able to specify PartyIds - and somehow their iterate through the execution of function - I see not how can I provide these data.

    Can anyone help?

    So that information is here:

    I ended up having to use a web service to achieve, because it included the creation of an address to complete the creation of the account.  From now on, I am able to create a contact and an account by using this approach, and it gets quite detailed.  Essentially, integration creates an element of income on the opportunity, by completing a series of fields containing the required information.  The user then it rereads and corrections, after what they push a button who created the account and contact and then combines it with another.

    All that is needed is to define the web service for the object to the title of the web services, create and fill out a card with all the required data (see the repository), and then call create() on the web service passing the card as an argument.  There were some necessary fine tuning, but in the end it worked perfectly.

  • How can I create a sync account, without synchronization option?

    I am currently in IE, but firefox running 25.

    I'm under addon web visum, which is to solve a CAPTCHA for me, however, on the creation of sync account, it won't work, because this window is not standard Web interface page.
    The solution will be, if I can create on behalf of synchronization through a web interface, by visiting a page, for example, accounts.mozzilla.org/signup
    I also tried an audio captcha, but its quality so bad, and I do not understand...
    I hope that someone will help.

    Hello agasoft, I'm sorry that the registration process makes it so difficult - as far as I know it is possible to open an account of synchronization within the program of good.

    If you wish, I could also help you set up the account - it would work something like this:

    1. I contacted by personal message and ask your e-mail address.
    2. I created an account and you send the password and the recovery key for the account.
    3. You can then login on the website https://account.services.mozilla.com/ and change the password to your account.
    4. You can connect your firefox for the existing synchronization account by going to firefox > options > synchronization > sync Setup > I have an account > I don't have the camera with me. There, you will have to complete the identification of the account information (address, e-mail, password & recovery key).
    5. Finally if the account is configured, you can then go to firefox > options > synchronization > manage my account > my recovery key. in this window please choose to generate a new recovery key. Please also save the new key to recovery somewhere safe in case you need it in the future...

  • How can I create a Second Site, which is a subfolder in an existing Site?

    Previous webmaster leaves abruptly.  I inherited the mess.

    There are a number of 'sites' that are not real sites, but the subfolders located on the main site.

    I have the main site with success defined in Dreamweaver CS6.  Everything works as expected.  I am trying to create a new site that is a subfolder of the main site.  Dreamweaver warns me against that, for reasons that are not clear, but I can think of a lot of potential problems.

    Then, next thing I try is to create a local site that is NOT a subfolder, but a peer folder in the main local site.  I set the remote instance as subfolder of the remote site. When I do that, the new site works very well.  Yay.  But the former site is now broken.  When I try to watch its remote instance, I get this error message:



    If I delete the newly created site and restart Dreamweaver all is forgiven.  I tried this several times with the same results.


    Any thoughts?

    > This works, as long as I spend on the DW website that corresponds to the subsite (site1, site2, training3, etc...).

    Good, not perfect, but workable. Unless some reason why they managed it as separate sites, it must be simplified at some point. It would be easy to do fairy but you would need to move the school to the root level templates and add a link to the child pages. Whenever you mess with the templates there is potential for problems to wait until someone else takes the role is probably prudent.
