original title: darn childrenI

I recently had to spend money to have a password reset and to establish myself as an administrator of the machine.  I find I have been circumvented, however, and am now relegated to 'standard user', preventing parental control instead of applied.  How did do it? and how can I, short to wrest from the computer (what I did) restore my admin status?

We run vista.

No, you're right.  My point was that I should have created while I still had the power. but I did not dumped.

2 suggestions...

1. take your child to the computer, tell him to change your user account to the administrator account while you watch. It is the one who started the mess, make the child facing the music.
After you're back as an administrator, you can now look at what is a "strong" password and CHANGE your password.

2. If you are unable to run the routine 'tough love', take your computer to your RELIABLE computer store and the set.

We cannot help you switch user account to the account admin unless you have the admin password that apparently you have more. We can, in the worst scenario, excluded from this forum if we show you how to do it without admin password.
