• How to set history for only the administrator of a computer at home?

  I want to give my tab history to not allow anyone other than me to remove the information. I'm the administrator of this computer at home and want to keep an eye on what my children and grandchildren are doing on that computer for their own safety. How can I do this?

  History-locking is not possible (and if it was there are lots of ways to work around). Parental control allows you to keep an eye on websites visited, block / unblock websites with parental control on Firefox

• Satellite L500 - how to restore the menu "repair your computer"?

  Hello world

  I have a laptop Toshiba L500, Yestaday I tried to restore the system to the factory settings (by pressing F8 at startup high and choose "repair your computer"). In the system has been installed almost, but at a stage of installation drivers to read memory cards and similar - there was a failure (the blue screen and need down) - after that - Windows 7 is not loaded. parsing errors (by means using a floppy disk to another Windows 7 install) says that the registry is damaged, cannot repair.

  but the main problem - when you press F8 at startup upward - there is no MORE menu 'Repair your computer' (!) . It is impossible to start Windows 7 predefined. So there's the hidden sector containing Windows predefined (I saw when loading a disc of hatch - Total order could start - and hidden sector was visible). All files in drive recovery HARD necessary are also available.

  How to restore the menu "repair your computer"? or how it is possible to start Windows predefined without pressing F8?

  > Hidden article exists, I saw it, there are all the files recovery HARD drive (which was in the laptop after buying), but I can't begin to recover Windows because I don't have menu not 'repair your computer' to start the laptop. He disappeared...
  Of course, the flag in the Advanced Start menu seems to be deleted and therefore drive recovery HARD option isn't available anymore.
  Probably the partition has changed.

  But in case of HARD drive recovery files are still available on the recovery partition, you can try to create the USB support of own recovery using of workaround:

• How to unlock the administrator!

  How to unlock the administrator of vista with the password (I forgot my password)

  ... I forgot my password...

  While your application may very well be authentic, it could also be interpreted as a surreptitious attempt to bypass Windows security.

  The only recommended method to retrieve an administrative password is to login as another administrator account and reset the password to a known unknown. If the administrative passwords could be easily overcome, there would not be much point in them.

  It is in the terms of use and the Code of conduct of the responses of these forums to request or provide assistance to the cracking a password. Do not forget that you agreed to these and review if necessary.

  You can view the policy of Microsoft about lost or forgotten passwords (KB189126) for more information on what resources are available to you.

  The only advice that I can offer you is either begin to guess what the password could possibly be or reinstall Windows by default.

• How to clear the administrative events - Event Viewer log

  Hello:

  Anyone know how to clear the administrative events log listed under custom in the event viewer views?

  All the logs listed in Windows logs do not have options to clear, but the back above.

  Thank you

  ColTom2

  Hey Colonel,

  It is because this isn't 'really' a newspaper, in itself.
  This is a Search of the newspaper (and there is MUCH more that most people know), filtered to show all events in administrative type.
  The source column shows you which newspaper it came from originally.

  To get rid of them, you will need to erase all records.

  If you want to get an idea:
  Go down to the Applications and Services logs, and expand.
  Microsoft, expand it.
  Then Windows.

  Nice list?
  You need to open and delete all. To really delete it.

• How to deepen the administrator rights on the computer?

  Original title: a little URGENT please - Windows 8 lost administrator rights

  Here's the question.

  I have an Asus all in one type of windows desktop PC 8. I improved this standard to professional.
  There is a local user account, who somehow lost administration rights. This is obviously a problem, because I can not access several functions of the computer, including a critical application of the work.
  There is no other user accounts on the pc to connect to the standard administrator account that I suppose is disable by default? As I don't see it.
  After some googling, I tried a few methods to solve this, nothing helps. It seems im in a catch 22, as to solve the problem of having admin rights, I need to have administrator rights to perform the majority of bugs!
  Tried to start the safe mode, to re - activate administrator privileges by pressing F8 or SHIFT F8
  -no effect - pc just started normally
  Tried to activate the account administrator "cmd".
  -This must be done by run cmd as administrator, which I'm not currently!
  Tried to add mode without fail to the startup list
  -Need to be administrator to do!
  I don't see any method to restore or recover to previous point
  Impossible to reinstall windows as it came pre-installed with windows. I was about to add the computer to a domain so that I could make a clean image before this problem occurred
  Uh, I forgot what I tried now. pulling my hair out over this. Seems nothing more I need to do, I have access to an administrator account to run needs. If I could get in safe mode somehow that seems like it would allow me to solve this problem, but I can't get into that any means.
  Help, please! It is a working pc and the only app that gets used, requires administrator privileges to run. If his critics I solve this problem
  Thank you!
  Hi, I know I'm a little late to the party, but I found this post faced a similar problem and thought that post my findings.
  I found a work around for this problem, which does not require a reinstall of Windows, but you may lose your user account.
  Summary:
  The problem is that in Windows 8, the administrator is inactive by default, you will have to find a way to activate it. You can activate the admin as an admin account, however. Fortunately, (on my machine anyway) it seems that you can access your hidden from the Safemode administrator account. If your first set of objectives will be as follows:
  -starting in safe mode
  -Log in as an administrator
  -l' administrator, enable the account administrator similarly.
  -Restart your machine and you as an administrator outside of safe mode (normal mode).
  From here, you should be free to do what you want. Now that the admin account is active, you are allowed to type a password when prompted (by default that the password is empty). For me, however, when I tried to promote my previous user administrator account (among other things) I noticed symptoms that seem to indicate that the account ceased to exist. I went through measures to set up a new account and get it synced with my microsoft email account.
  -Create a new user account
  -give administrator rights
  -remove my old (for some reason, hidden) account
  -Sync to the top of my new user account with microsoft e-mail account.
  Directions for use:
  How to get admin access:
  (1.) start in safe mode. You can make it easier by opening a command prompt (Start menu-> type "cmd"). And type "shutdown/r/o".
  2.), your computer begins to restart, but give you a set of troubleshooting options. Choose troubleshooting->-> start of the Advanced Options settings.
  3.) after reboot and enter safe mode, users of contactor by going to the start menu-> click on your user name-> and choose administrator.
  4.) Windows will begin the first initialization for this account.
  5.) once connected, open the command prompt, this time as a Director. (Make a right click-> Run as administrator).
  6.) type "net user administrator / Active: Yes" to set the admin account as 'active'. It will now be shown outside of safe mode.
  7.) restart your computer and log in as administrator again. You can now add users and to play with the permissions etc. (metro options are not available in safe mode, where the reset).
  How to remove your old account of 'lost' and synchronize your new account with the microsoft account.
  1.) create a new account via the control panel users. Don't forget to give you administrator rights.
  (2.) to remove your lost old account by typing "net use /del" in an administrator command prompt. You need to know your old account name, good luck with this one.
  3.) go into the settings of your pc: open the context menu on the right-> settings-> "change PC settings."
  (4.) to go to the users-> Select 'switch to a Microsoft account» tab
  I hope this helps!

• How to track the history on my computer

  In order to control my computer, I want to know how I can track valuable data on my history of computers with:

  • Browsing the Internet (mostly)
  • Emails
  • Use of the application
  • Etc.

  I've been looking online, but I found links to hard drives, but some do not work, and others were not what I was looking for.

  With a family, I want to know who has access to what and when.  My House contains different computers.  Can anyone help?  I want to know what the professionals and programs use to track the history, so I don't spend a lot of money

  Hi Nicolas, t.

  If you're using the administrator account, you can check Internet browsing history and see if it helps.

  If you use Internet Explorer, you can view the following items:

  How long the historical change of the Web page is kept in Internet Explorer

  Delete webpage history

  You can also browse the directory of user name in Windows Explorer. The path is C:\Users\------, where you will find recent Documents, search and the recent Programs.You can choose the folder 'Everywhere' in research and get more information. You can also look in the trash.

  You can also use your favorite search engine to browse third-party monitoring software and use them to track the history on the computer.

  NOTE: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hope this information is useful.

• How to clear the administrative events in 'eventvwr' in Windows 7

  Is anyone out there who can help me with this problem?   I'll tell you.

  Hi, thanks for trying, but your response was not useful at all, sorry...   I am looking for a way to remove all the symbols warning under "Administration events Logs '...  I know how to clear all the undernearth, but it is the main I want to erase without having to do a factory restore.

  Thank you

  (1) I don't know why you're moping around the event viewer and what you're trying to achieve by disabling the administrative events. They are just the alerts and messages that won't just compensation without tackling the real problems reflected by alerts administrative event.

  (2) by design, you cannot delete it interface in the Event Viewer because it isn't 'really' a newspaper. Its a kind of a filter of administrative events of all cumulative newspapers (Application/security/system other applications etc.) you see in the eventvwr.

  

  (3) factory restore to clear the administrative events is a kind of a solution that might be similar to "Burn down your House to kill the rat"

  (4) so how do? Do it yourself manually. Create a file beats using below and run it... (Run as Admin)

  off @echo FOR /F "tokens = 1, 2 *" %%d IN ('bcdedit'), DO DEFINE adminTest = % V IF (noAdmin goto %adminTest%)==(Access) for /F "tokens = *" %%d in ('wevtutil.exe el') DO (call: do_clear ' % G ') echo echo, event logs have been cleared! ^ goto theEnd: do_clear echo %1 wevtutil.exe cl %1 goto of compensation: eof: noAdmin echo, you must run this script as an administrator! echo ^ ) : theEnd pause > NULL
