• How to deepen administrator rights on my computer?

  I am running Windows Vista 32 bit on my laptop, and I have problems with file permissions.  I'm trying to change the contents of my file in Windows32 and Vista won't let me access the files there.  I have to do this action in order to save my laptop, but he repeats to me I need administrator rights to perform this action.  I don't have a single account on my laptop, so why can't access these files?  I tried to change the preferences, but words and check boxes are always gray and I can click on them to change them.  How can I access these files?

  Hi Jason,
  Before you do a clean install, I recommend you run a SFC scan, this may fix the corrupted files (not always). Give it a try, if this doesn't help, you will need to do a repair/cleaning facility.

  Let us know if you need additional assistance.

• How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

  OT: Without administrator rights.

  I don't have my active administrator account.

  I had a user account that I removed myself from the group administrator.

  Now I'm locked to do anything.

  I can't assign me to the admin group, I can't allow the user to administrator, I can't edit some files or delete some software...

  I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

  I can't open the recovery mode, tried to start in safe mode and all the rest.

  How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

  I had a user account, which I removed myself from the group administrator.

  -> This is called "paint yourself in a corner.

  I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

  -> Is normal. Either you are an administrator, or you're not.

  How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

  -> Ask a friend to burn a CD repair system for you (Control Panel / backup and restore). Now to use this CD to start the machine in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore to set Windows to a point before you downgrade your one and only the admin account.

  When you're done, plan ahead a little and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

• 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!
