no administrator user on computer

I have set up my son on the laptop as administrative user and then added myself as a user.  After I realized that I wanted to be listed as the admin user and when I made the change administration user somehow lost all together.  Now whenever I need to make a change or whatever it is, I wonder the admin password and no room is provided to enter an and there is no list of potential user to allow access through.  I tried to do a system restore, but it need the permission of the user.

How can I fix it?  It told me that there is a problem in the software and needs to be reconfigured.  Where can I access this information and how to change?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I found the answer on another question that I've initially neglected, so thank you for that answer Yes!

    Using the F8 method:

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
    3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
    5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.

    When you log on a Windows Vista-based or a Windows 7 computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:

    The user profile Service has not logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947215#letmefixit

    Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242

    If you tried to log on to Windows and received an error message telling you that your user profile is damaged, you can try to fix it. You will need to create a new profile and then copy the files from the existing to the new profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

  • How to set controls on my computer to allow standard users to not impersonate a user administrator? I just want to be able to have 1 administrative user.

    I tried to sent a parental controls for my minor daughter not to go to some Web sites, but she had figured out how to change his user account and the administrator account. How can I stop this?

    I moved your post on the forums of Windows security.

    Basically, you need to make sure that other users of the PC have their protected accounts password and the PC is locked or users disconnected if one of them is administrative users. If she has access to your password or the password of an account with admin rights, it can change its own permissions.

    (2) tried questions help and support, impossible to find a way around it.

    (3) I've changed my password, now I can't even shut down the computer.

    I can't believe that this happened to someone, somewhere, and it's so easy to do.

    Help, please! I tried everything-

    Please take these steps to restore the privileges on your account. This somewhat tedious procedure is only necessary if you have verified that no work administrator account exists on the system.

    If you do not already have a current backup of all your data, you must back up before taking any of the steps below. Ask if you need advice. You won't need the backup unless something goes wrong, which is always possible.

    Step 1

    Start in recovery mode. The OS X Utilities appears.

    Step 2

    This step only if you use FileVault 2. Start utility disk, then select the icon for the volume FileVault startup ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Select open in the file menu and enter your login password when you are prompted. Then quit disk utility must be returned to the main screen.

    Step 3

    Select

    Utilities ▹ Terminal

    in the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:

    resetp

    Press the tab key. The partial order you entered will automatically end this:

    resetpassword

    Press return. Opens a window to reset the password. Select your boot if not already done volume. Pull down the menu option

    Select the user account

    and select

    Administrator (root)

    Follow the prompts to set a password. It is safer to choose a password that includes only the characters a - z, A - Z and 0-9. I suggest that you write the password. If you don't write it down and forget about it, you will start again at step 1.

    Select

     ▹ Reboot...

    in the menu bar.

    Step 4

    This step, as step 2, applies only if you use FileVault. Sign up as usual, then select

     ▹ Disconnect...

    from the menu bar or press shift-command-Q key combination. Do not restart. You go back to the login screen.

    Step 5

    On the login screen, click on the other... Enter 'root' (without the quotes) in the name field and the password set in step 3 in the password field. You should now be logged in as root. It is a potentially dangerous situation. Do nothing by being logged in as root except as indicated below. You'll be fine as long as you don't dismiss the plan.

    Open the preferences users and groups window. Select your usual administrator account from the list of users and check the box marked

    Allow the user to administer this computer

    You will be prompted to restart. Do this and log in as yourself, not as root. Your administrator status should now be restored.

    Step 6 (optional, but recommended)

    Follow the instructions in this article to support under the title "disable the root user. You must authenticate in directory utility as a 'root' with the password set in step 3. As another administrator authentication will not work.

  • My wife is the administrator user and she forgot her password and she did not save what we can and there are only standard users on this PC, what can we do?

    My wife is the administrator user and she forgot her password and it does not back up and there is only standard users on this PC, what can we do?

    If your wife was using his account with "computer administrator" privileges, and then use the built-in account named "Administrator".

    By default, the built-in account named "Administrator" doesn't have a password.  If you have XP Pro, you can access the administrator account (with no other connected users) Welcome screen by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice to bring up the "classic" logon window  Enter the administrator user and leave the password empty box.

    In XP Pro or XP Home, you can access the administrator account by restarting mode without fail (repeatedly press F8 to leave immediately after the computer starts / restarts; if you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and you will need to try again).  Once Windows starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen.

    Once you are in the administrator account, go to control panel > user accounts to reset the password of an account with "computer administrator" privileges or create a new user account with privileges "computer administrator."

    If the password that you lack to the built-in, ' administrator' account politics of Microsoft for these forums forbid us to provide you with any information that might help you to bypass this password.

    You must restore your registry to a point in time before that you have disabled the administrator user.  It is not easy if there is any left on the system administrator user.

    One way to do this is to start your computer from a CD rescue-style such as BartPE and UBCD4Win or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix.  You can then follow the steps in the following article from part 2, step 6, using GUI to copy and rename the files rather than orders from command-line specified in article.

    When you have completed the tutorial, try this...
    Right click on any folder/file > click Move To > scroll to the destination where will be moved to the folder/file > click on move.
    That's all. The file/folder is moved.
