I've removed my built-in administrative user, how can I restore that?

In fact, you can't remove the administrator account; the system will not let you. You can change or remove the password. If you know your way around the system, you can DISABLE the administrator account or if you have created a user account with administrative access during the initial installation, the built-in Administrator account will be disabled automatically. If the last user account with administrative access is removed, the built-in Administrator account should be automatically enabled only if the computer is part of a Windows/AD domain. If you need to access the built-in Administrator account, you will need to open an administrative command prompt (so you still need an administrator account and the password), and then type: net user administrator / Active: Yes. This will activate the built-in account. If you simply remove the password of an administrator account, you just provide a blank password.

    I have two user accounts, now I forgot the password of an account with administrative privileges, how can I reset or remove this password

    There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
    After solving this problem, plan in advance and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare House key.
  • No one on my computer is an administrator. How can I change this so I can acess some things and delete an account?

    My daughter one I share a computer and I'm not an administrator, I need to delete her account because she just got a new laptop. How can I do that if I'm not an administrator?

    Hello

    If you are not an administrator, you should ask someone who has administrator rights, to do so.

    Tip:

    You can try to run your operating system in "safe mode", then you will see the 'Administrator' account, which will be (maybe) without password. This user has administrator rights and can delete his account.

    How to run the OS in 'safe mode' is here:

  • Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.

    Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.  When I try to catch the separator bar to go back to the left, only half of the small arrow icon and line appears, and it cannot be moved.   Can open the message by double clicking a message viewer.

    Hi there, alicefrompa!

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. From your post, I understand that you do not see the Message Viewer box which allows you to read your e-mails; only see you the Inbox that includes a brief overview of the message and are unable to restore access using the separator bars. I have had this happen to my own Mail app and am happy to let you know how I could fix!

    You are really on the right track - you want to roll your mouse over the divider between the Inbox and sections Message Viewer (which should now be on the extreme right edge of your mail window) and drag it to the left.  When you click on the receipt/Message Viewer box, the cursor turns into a line continuous black with a single arrow pointing to the left. When you see the cursor change, click with the left button of the mouse and (while holding down the mouse button in) drag the combination line / arrow to the left. You may need to drag a little further than before to get it. I had to hang mine almost completely in the middle of my Mail app before the display of the message box appeared.

    From there, you should be able to adjust the boxes to your widths you want as expected.

    If you are still not able to get the display of the messages visible after have try this, here are a few more things that you can do.

    1. Press command + O on your keyboard.
    2. Exit the Mail application, and then press on and hold the SHIFT key on your keyboard while reopening.
    3. Restart your Mac by selecting the menu  Apple in the upper right of your screen restart from the menu drop down.

    See you soon!

  • I'm downloading Panda Antivirus and it tells me to remove Microsoft Antivirus before installing. How do I do that?

    I'm downloading Panda Antivirus and it tells me to remove Microsoft Antivirus before installing. How do I do that?

    What is the exact name of "Microsoft Antivirus"?

    If it is called Microsoft Security Essentials...

    Start > in the search box, type programs and features > press the Enter key > scroll down until you find Microsoft Security Essentials > right click it > click on uninstall.

    If I may say so *.
    Microsoft Security Essentials is free and is a good program.
    Panda Antivirus is a program, you must PURCHASE it.
    No particular reason, you want to buy an AV when there are FREE programs that will do the job?
