How to set up a NEW account prompt? I currently have none, because until now, I was the only user on this computer.

Microsoft help only tells me how to change or delate a CURRENT guest account.

Nothing is said about NEW accounts bracn.

If you want to give users the occasional access then just set up a normal Standard user account and call it 'Visitor' or something similar...

  • How can I reset the permission to receive downloaded programs? This authorization has changed and I don't know why. I am the owner and the only user of this computer.

    After a long work, I learned that I'm unable to download programs such as Adobe Flash and Microsoft Security Scan.  In fact, they do not enter the folder C:\USERS\CLAUDE\DOWNLOADS\---mais they may not be recognized by the operating system (SYS 7) because for some reason any access is denied.  I looked at the book and find that Claude file is locked.  I don't know how it happened.  I tried to see how to unlock but again without success.  Can you help me?

  • My laptop always tells me that I am user of 'limited' and I need to log in as an administrator. I am the only user of this computer at home, and I can't find out how this action.

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    If you had only one user account, it originally was an administrator, and he has now suddenly become Standard see methods below. After return you to the system scan for malware because these things happen not magically by themselves. You will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account and make your changes. See the end of this post for the recommended user configuration.

    http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

    1 boot without failure. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. That you will get to the menu on the right where you can use your arrow key to select Mode safe [Enter]. The built-in Administrator account is disabled by default in Vista. However, if no other administrative accounts exist on the system it can be activated. If this is the case, you will see an icon for the administrator on the homescreen mode without failure. Login to the administrator.

    2 If you don't see the icon for the administrator mode safe account, then the built-in Administrator account is always disabled so you will need to work more. If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode.  Or you can do a repair file Vista bootable DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need the third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

    Now remove the rescue CD/DVD, you have done, reboot Windows and log on to the built-in Administrator account, you enabled.

    After getting things sorted, login to a different administrative account (see recommendations below) and disable the administrator built-in again for security reasons.

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • The only user on my computer account is missing

    Some of my work laptop and desktop computers have recently become unusable because I can not connect.  Each computer only had a user account and he is gone.  There is literally nothing to click on or go on the Welcome screen.  I saw the other missing messages of user accounts, and the solution is to always connect to a different user account to change some settings and others.  No one knows what to do if there is only one account user, admin and is absent?

    Thanks for all the ideas!

    On one of the computers.

    Restart and start typing the F8 key when the PC manufacturer's logo appears.  Keep typing just on what you actually try capture the moment that disappears from the logo of the manufacturer of the PC but before starting Windows itself.

    Select safe mode.  An account called administrator should appear as it is designed to do so automatically if other accounts are broken.  However, there is no password.  Log it.

    As soon as Windows has finished starting up, and it's just sitting there, go to

    Control Panel [view by - small icons, as applicable], user accounts, manage another account.  Create a new account and make an Admin account - Admin1.  Then do it again you give two chances - Admin2.  Don't bother with giving them passwords, but as you can do it later.

    Restart again without any other tinkering because it is important avoid doing anything that might cause errors while you are in this special administrator account.

    When you restart, you can identify yourself as Admin1.  Once you are happy that it works correctly, make a password reset disk for it and give it a strong password.  Instructions to do this are in Windows Help and are explained later in

    As a precaution 2- Make & test a password for each account reset disk [PDF version]

    Then sign and do the same thing with Admin2.

    You can then proceed to make an account for every user on this computer, log in as a user and make a password reset disk for it.  Don't decide to use the Admin1 and Admin2 as an account on the day the day, keep them for granting administrative permissions only to make them here ready in case something like this happens again.  See

    As a precaution - 1 Create two additional admin accounts [PDF version]

    Then do the same for each of the other computers.

    I fear that you will find that you have been infected by malware in order to check this carefully before backups [or you risk infecting your previous backups and anything else you connect to these computers].  The only reason why I think it is it seems to be a strange coincidence that you had the same rare failure on several computers at the same time.

  • I am trying to download a patch for a game on the internet, but whenever I try, a message appears saying that I don't have administrative rights to install a patch. I am the only user of a computer. How can I fix it?

    I tried to use the administrative tools to solve this problem, but nothing seems to think it would work in this situation.

    Floop51,
    Can you let us know which game is that you have problems with?  If so he can help us solve this problem.  I suggest to try two things.  First would be to perform a clean boot and competitions.  Then create a new admin user account, and then test the game for this user.  Here are links to articles on these steps.

    I have recently buy a slate of 10 HD 3600 us with Android JellyBean and I was just the initial game upward. Instructions to set up a new account 4G with T-Mobile seem simple enough in the tutorial:

    BUT THEY DO NOT WORK ON MY TABLET! So I unplug my Wi - Fi tablet, went to Chrome, and that's all I ever get:

    You are in offline mode

    A Wi - Fi connection and mobile data are turned off.
    This page can be loaded once you connect to a network.
    Error code: ERR_Internet_DISCONNECTED

    I tried different cities, just to check if the T-Mobile signal was weak, where I live, with the same results. Could there be a problem with my SIM card?

    I saw in Amazon.com that I was not the only person having problems with implementation of this 4 G with T-Mobile account.  So I finally got a hand on Amazon and HP technical support, and the later explained to me that:

    "As you use the SIM card that is T-Mobile, you must activate the mobile data connection. You can enable it from the setting of the notification. In the top right drop-down menu panel. »

    So if you go to home page main of your device and make your finger down on the upper right corner, there is a menu with different options in the device settings. And of course, there is a T-Mobile utility that allows you to transform the mobile data. I did know about this because I'm all new to Android, and this is my first tablet. I could follow the tutorials to set up the account 4G T-Mobile after that.
