• I want to reset the administrator account

  I want to reset the administrator account on a used pc I got for my children, how it's done on xp?

  If you mean you want to reset the password, then the best information that Microsoft will allow in this forum is in the following article:

  "Microsoft's strategy concerning lost or forgotten passwords"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/189126 >

  Since you recently acquired this computer, by far the best advice would be to reformat the hard drive and reinstall Windows on the computer.  This way you won't have to worry about malware (or anything else you want to see your children) which may be present on your machine.  Most of the machines OEM (HP, Dell, etc.) can reinstall Windows as part of a "System Recovery" press a key designated when the first splash screen appears at startup.  You must be quick, however.  If it is not an option, go to the manufacturer's Web site and download the manual for your machine which should tell you how to reinstall Windows.

  ·         You have access to any account of admin rights?

  ·         How have you removed from the administrator account?

  ·         What operating system is it (windows vista or windows 7)?

  For now, try the following steps:

  To activate built to the administrator account in windows vista or windows 7 you must connect to all the account administrator rights and perform these steps

  1) click Start and type cmd.exe

  (2) in programs, right-click on command prompt and click run as administrator

  (3) in the command prompt, type net user administrator / Active: Yes

• I accidentally deleted the administrator account while trying to get rid of administrator privileges - HELP!

  I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges for that when I'm on another user account he don't ask me the password, or install all the files that I had the intention of this account to the administrator account. I used the command net user administrator / active: No.

  I'm not quite sure if I completely deleted the account or hidden in some way, but now whenever I try to do anything that requires the administrator password (almost everything) I don't even have an opportunity to choose Yes to enter and only the no option I can't change any settings on the computer at all by using a user account This being via CommandPrompt, Panel etc. I'm at a complete loss as what to do.

  (Also, if someone was uncertain, the account Administrator is not visible on the screen to connect.)

  I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges

  -> Order net user administrator / active: No. will do exactly what it says: it allows to disable the administrator account. That is to throw the main key to the safe. Here's how you can reverse this reckless action:
  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Set Windows to a point before you demoted the administrator account.
  8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, even you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

• You want to delete the user account from the computer and turn the computer on a workgrout or a homegroup.

  Original title: My Windows 7 laptop is plugged in and not on a network. My lack of understanding of the work and networking groups made me make a mess in the implementation

  I implemented 'users' as I could and now I find that in large part is loaded on my computer and I didn't need to have to deal with two identities to myself.  Can I fix or would it not be better to reinstall Windows a user, a set of files on all and the guest account will be switched off.  In addition, even though my computer says that it is a working group, the only internet connection I have is the LAN.  Can someone put me directly.

  Thanks in advance

• Cannot delete the administrator account

  Hello:

  I am an administrator in Windows 7 and I cannot delete another account Administrator named 'test '. When I select the "test" account in the management of accounts, I get the list of choices:
  Change the name of the account
  Create a password
  Change the image
  Set up Parental controls
  Manage another account.
  When I click on my original administrator account, the list of options is:
  Change the name of the account
  Change the password
  Remove the password
  Change the image
  Set up Parental controls
  Change account type
  Remove account
  Manage another account
  The 'delete account' does not appear in the account of 'test '. So, how can I delete this account 'test '?
  Thanks for any help.
  Alex

  The "Test" account was probably the original ' administrator' account until you have renamed it. It cannot be deleted. You can find as follows:

  1. Click on the globe to start, and then type the three letters cmd into the search box and press ENTER.
  2. Type these commands and press ENTER after each:
     net users
     (to see a list of all accounts)
     NET user test
     (to see all the details for the test account)
  Anyway, as one admin account is a bad idea, even than having just a key to the House. What would you do if something was wrong with this single account? At all times, you should have two accounts admin fully tested and documented.

  Original title: Hi I have a windows 7

  You must be at least one account Admin on the PC.  It's just the way that Windows 7 works.

  The account that you used to make the new Admin account must also be an administrator full - account only administrators can make new accounts.

  Of running Windows 7, it is recommended to use a user account Standard for all daily activities.  In addition to that, make two password protected administrator accounts & write passwords.  Make a password reset disk for each account on the PC.

  On the removal of Maxewell girl - the account is deleted [this is possible by an Admin]

  1. go to the daughter of C:\Users\Maxewell's and copy all the files of this user that you want to continue

  2 using Control Panel, user accounts, manage another account.

  3 you can then remove the entire Panel Contorl system, advanced system, Advanced tab settings user profile, select user account profiles - settings button - then click on the button Delete

  4. go on girl C:\Users\Maxewell's and verify that the files are deleted

• XP has changed the user accounts is now impossible to access the administrator account

  Something has gone wrong when changing my user accounts. I don't have an administrator account can create a. I can't even restore my system. It doesn't let me do anything! What to do Help!

  You use the built-in account named "Administrator"?  If so, the behavior you describe is "a feature, not a bug."

  Windows XP hidden administrator account when a user account is created (because it's a good idea not to use administrator systematically; it should be saved for emergencies).

  You access the administrator account integrated differently depending on whether you have XP Home or XP Pro.

  For XP Home:

  You must restart in Mode without failure.  Restart the computer and start typing the F8 key as soon as the initial startup process is finished.  If you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and you have to restart again.   If you do it right, you will see the white Advance Boot Options menu on black (image).  Use the up/down arrows and the Enter key to select Mode safe because your mouse does not work on this screen.  Once the computer starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen.  If you have not changed the password, the password is blank (no password).

  For XP Pro:

  Follow the signs for XP Home Edition, or in the Welcome screen, with no logged-in user, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice.  The 'classic' logon box will appear.  Type "Administrator" (without the quotes).  Once again, the default password is empty.

  Once you enter the administrator account, create an account with "computer administrator" privileges for occasions when you need (for example, to run the system restore or create accounts).  You can use any name you want (other than Administrator), such as MyAdmin.

• Account of Vista standard user will not open programs that more, can only open with the administrator account

  Whenever I try to open a program on a standard user account, a window opens asking "what program you want to use to open this with?", which is of course less useless.  I can open all programs with the administrator account, but then I can't access files of the standard user...  What happened all of a sudden; We had a malware infection that is now deleted and who may well have caused the problem.  If I use the system restore, the malware will return?  Prefer not to use SR if there is a better solution...
