Impossible to change the user account for the administrator account

I have followed closely the instructions in this forum to change a user to an administrator account account. However, when the dialog box that allows the selection of a standard account or administrator account opens and I select the administrator account, the "change account Type" gray button and I can't make the selection. Any help would be appreciated.

Your account is already at the level of the admin (see marked area below). You may not promote any more away.

    Hi Davy,.

    You are the administrator of the account?

    As you have tried the default user logon image, create a new user account can help you determine if the problem is related to the corruption of user account.

    Otherwise, sign in with the account that has administrative rights and try to change the image.

    Create a new user account and check if the problem persists, if the problem does not persist in the new user account, then you can fix the damaged user account.

    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I can imagine the disadvantages suffered by you and will certainly help you in the right

    direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

    1. What is the exact error message when you say, ' I tried to change my password and he said: I can't? "
    2. You did it of any significant changes to the computer before this problem?
    3. You are connected to a local user account or an Microsoft account?

    It seems that your administrator password is unable to validate Windows Server.

    If connected to a Microsoft account, I suggest to reset your account password and try to connect to your computer Windows 8.1 and check if it helps fix the problem.

    See the links for more information on how to reset your Microsoft Account password.

  • Impossible to change the administrator password or log in to the administrator! (CF10)

    So as the title says, I can't connect to the administrator and change the password through Coldfusion10\cfusion\bin\passwordreset.bat doesn't seem to be actually change the password because I always get the "invalid username/password" when I try to log in after resetting the password.

    Further, I used the old method of changing neo - security.xml and changed 'admin.security.enabled' to false. This allowed me access to the administrator, but even in this case, when I activate the password protection and reset the password of the administrator, I am still unable to connect!

    A detail that may be a clue to solve this problem: when installing CF, it has been fixed to not use the default username "admin". When I try to open a session if I try with "admin" and the username is personalized with no luck.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem? It seems that the password encryption system is broken and store the hash of password reset evil or something...

    EDIT: I forgot to mention that I have to restart the service after the reset of the password.

    Here are possible solutions, you can try: -.

    Note:-a restart of the application server ColdFusion to allow port internal/built would be necessary.

    Here's a similar thread ColdFusion 11 fresh install Administrator Login does not there is place for ColdFusion 10 as well.

  • 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.
