  • How to keep a locked user account after Idle

    My current workplace just upgraded to Windows 7 for most of our computers from the workspace, and with computers communial there is now a problem where if a user doesn't log out and leave the computer hangs on their account on the login screen from which allows us to change user. Hard reboot the computer it unlocks and allows to change username, but given that some of the computer towers are located in other areas at the office, it can be irritating. What are the settings we have to change in order to prevent computers snaps and instead of us giving the ability to simply change user if someone forgets to sign out?

    Note: Your IT Admin might have prevented you to make changes for security reasons.

  • How to schedule defragment under user account?

    I would like to know how to plan defragment under user account.

    When I run defrag under user account, it asks for the admin password.

    Is there any approach to ignore this application process for "password" and set the schedule to run defrag directly?

    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Planned measures:

    Would this scheduled task runs under the admin account? even through I connect using the user account and Defrag runs in the background under admin account.  Wouldn't be corrected interpretation? -

    -Yes, that's correct - you are connected as a standard user but defrag makes use of the Admin account.

    Action tab

    It would be correct choose the suite file?

    No - I don't know why you keep reference C:\defrag.bat when it enter task scheduler

    Program/script %windir%\system32\defrag.exe

    Add arguments to C:

    does the work.  In addition, Windows treats the batch, named Windows utilities files very strangely so you should never use same name as a Windows utility.  In this case, I think that Windows work defrag.exe instead of your batch file, so all the arguments written in the batch file will be ignored. Just put in place Task Scheduler I did and forget about using a batch file.

    You can tell that the task is running by looking at the Task Manager, Services, defragsvc.  If the task is running then this service will run also [and service you keep saying that it runs for 5-10 minutes after the task finishes].

    You can view the results by opening the Disk Defragmenter [C:\Windows\System32\dfrgui.exe] and it will show you the last time a defrag activity took place and the last reported State of fragmentation [i.e. the fragmentation status when the task is over].

    [Note that Disk Defragmenter to opening also sets the Task Manager, Services and defragsvc to say that it's running , so this can be confusing - service is not the thing, take any measure and just open Disk Defragmenter initiates any defrag action].

  • Password accepted but does nothing (admin) user. Locked user account? How can I register as a Admin to change?

    Had problems with Solution Explorer. While changing this and that, I blocked the user accounts. My password is not rejected, but does nothing. How can I get as long as a tool fix my problem?

    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 [press 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. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair 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 to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Remove the installation/rescue DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to log on to the built-in Administrator compatible account now and make your changes. Once you have fixed things, connect to your additional administrative account (implemented by the 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.

  • Locked user account

    We just have to upgrade to Oracle. I have one of the three usernames that cannot connect to. I get:

    An error occurred during the connection:
    Type: java.sql.SQLException error Code: 28000 SQL State: 99999
    Message: ORA-28000: the account is locked

    I had a tech person trying to connect with the wrong password. I tried to unlock the account with:

    change the xxxxxxx user account unlock;

    He says that the user has been changed, but I still get the same error message. What Miss me?

    Thank you

    HII...

    The values in the default profile limits seems to be Ok. Although you can try changing the FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS to unlimited.

    change the default profile limit failed_login_attempts unlimited;

    Test again the administration with the password utilities.

  • How can I restore deleted user account?

    During a session to help with Intuit on the installation of a product update, it became necessary to set up a new user in Windows XP Tablet Edition.  In the process of all other user accounts have been deleted. How to restore a user account?  The new account is an administrator account.

    Hobler,
    If the user account has been deleted you can not restore with the help of a program of backup\restore.  If you have another drive and that you have backed up your hard drive then user accounts should be part of your backup.  You just go through the restore process for items you need.
    If you do not have a backup, and then they are gone. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

  • Locked user account, administrator access

    My user account on my laptop had its password changed without my permission, and there is no option to access the administrator account from the logon screen. I can't restart in safe mode because it requires me to log on and I do not know the password. I tried to recover the last known good configuration, but once more he invites me to log in again. no command prompt either.

    My question is: can it be fixed, if not, how do I restore the computer to its original settings?

    If you are unable to connect to Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you can use the Windows Vista System Restore feature, or the Windows 7 system restore feature.

    You may be unable to connect to Windows Vista or Windows 7 in the following scenarios:

    • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
    • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista or Windows 7 does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
    • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
    • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
