Prevent the creation of new user accounts in Vista

Is there a way to prevent the creation of new user accounts in Windows Vista? What about restricting internet access to all new account that is created? Help! :)

Hello

If your contact is logged on as administrator, then he or she can create a new user account. If you don't want someone else to create a new user account, you can then create a standard account for them, in this way, they will not have the privilege to create a new user account.

Create a user account

If you don't want to give them access to the internet, then you can use the parental control.

Set up Parental controls (Vista)

Hope that helps.

  • Cannot create a new user account in Vista Home Premium

    Running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 installed, running on a LG laptop. I am set up as an administrator, but when you click through the steps to create a new Standard user account, it does not create and does not appear in the list of users.
    I tried searching for this issue of TechNet, but was unable to find anything related.
    Any help is appreciated

    Hi B Pick,

    Thanks for posting us the Forum of community of answers.microsoft.com.

    Since he had been some time since your last post, we marked this as resolved.  Recently I saw messages and found that you had posted about it recently.  Sometimes if a thread shows solved it do not get reviewed again, so, my apologies, it took some time to answer.

    A point of interest in considering the issue of "unable to create a user account having administrative rights" is can create you an account that has no administrative rights from another account and then you use that has administrative rights?  Information Justin had submitted and information, I'm reviewing, it would be very beneficial for our steps in troubleshooting to have this documented as being verified.

    You would present to us in the forum if this is something you are able to accomplish in a new administrative account that you create for this system?

    In another order of ideas, it would be that there are suspicious software loaded on the system.  Try running scan of Virus and malware removal tool.

    Here are some links for the Microsoft-Authored applications for these procedures.  Check if these are products that you want to use, or if you have already produced in place for this activity to use them if you wish.

  • Issue related to the creation of administrator user accounts

    I've recently set up a new password user admin account on my laptop. However my standard account still allows me to see the content without asking for the password. I'm doing something wrong?

    It depends on security context.  If you use a single account, but trying to access files stored on a user admin account, you will be prompted for a password.  If you don't want this, you can adjust the folder security permissions to give other access to the account.

  • How can I prevent the creation of new files in the folder in the meantime?

  • the profile user account folder can be renamed instead of create a new user account

    I noticed this issue posted everywhere that none got the answer, the person posting was looking for.  Basically, the question is "can the folder of the user profile account be renamed? '...  I have the same problem.  I sent a PC in for repair.  They reloaded the operating system and created the new test user account.  Rather than just create a new user account, I've renamed the test NAME user account.  I couldn't help but notice later that user account folder name has remained the same "TEST".  That's why you have people to ask the question "can the folder of the user profile account be renamed instead of create a new user account."  It of an easy fix but does not answer the question.

    It is not usually. If you have a computer, why not have just him take care of it for you instead of friction top yourself? ;-)

    Try this instead if you really must do it yourself:

    1. create a new administrator account. Call it 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar. You definitely want to have an administrative user account like this set up that you will use not except for emergency situations. You will use this in the elevation of privileges in your daily report - which will be a Standard account - but will not need to connect to CompAdmin after that company copy unless something goes terribly wrong. ;-)

    2. create a new user account Standard for your daily work. This called something that makes you happy. I don't know your real name, so I'll call it "HDXer". Connect to HDXer to create the profile files/folders.

    3. connect to CompAdmin and:

    a. Control Panel > everything on the control panel > Folder Options

    b. click on the view tab, click hidden files and folders, clear the Hide protected operating system files check box and then click OK. Now you can see everything.

    c. using Windows Explorer ("computer"), search for the file C:\Users\Test.

    d. Select all files and folders in this folder, except the following files: Ntuser.dat, Ntuser.dat.log and Ntuser.ini.

    e. click on the Edit menu and then click on copy. If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    f. Locate the C:\Users\HDXer folder.

    g. click the Edit menu and then click on paste. If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    Sign out and then sign back in as a HDXer. All your stuff should be there. You need to configure your icons and wallpaper (Control Panel > Personalize) and some preferences have been postponed, but really with the exception of the email all your data, Favorites, etc., should now be at the HDXer.

    If you have messages in an e-mail program, such as Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. Because I don't know what you use for email, I can't give you the details about it. If everything is working properly, you can remove the old Test profile by using the user accounts applet in Control Panel. It won't hurt anything to make you leave the trial on the system for a while, or even forever.

  • I can't create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service has no logon

    I tried to create a new user account, but I get the following error when I try to open a session with him:

    the user profile service service has no logon

    Until I leave than anything more I will add that I activated the hidden administrator account and this is the account I use to create a new standard user account.

    Most of the patches for this issue are due to the fact that delete manually a user account does not remove the registry key that are associated, and you are required to go to the next section of the registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS NT\CURRENTVERSION\PROFILELIST

    and delete the key associated with the user account to be deleted.

    This fix IS NOT help, because whenever I try to create a new user, Windows doesn't bother creating a registry key to the new user.  The new user account appears in the account management window.  If I right click ondesktop and select Properties, then the settings , select the Advanced tab and click settingsunder USER PROFILES, the new account appears not here no more.

    It is a huge problem.  I have other people who use this laptop and I don't want to use my login information, or the guest account.  I'm not editing the registry just to make a new account.

    Please tell me there is a fix for this that works.  Windows 7 was not free, and this kind of problem is very frustrating for the premium software.

    Thanks - this is the only tip that help me to find the solution to this problem.

    Two files in the folder C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live could not be copied without administrator privileges.  This caused the connection in the attempt fail for all newly created user accounts.  The files are:

    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\Bici1_00.sqm

    and

    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm

    I've added the read permission for all users in these two files and retried the logon.  The opening of session proceeded set up initial user and filled perfectly.  Probably, this problem started when I installed Windows Live Messenger which is the only Windows Live application, I installed.

    Other important in your message board was to check the event log which stressed the two files which could not copy.  Otherwise provided in WARNING messages immediately preceded files event log error message indicates that the profile service could not connect.

  • Cannot create a new user account, the user profile service service does not log and cannot install a program

    I can't create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service has no logon.

    I have an administrative account which is the only account. I have problems with the installation of Autodesk Inventor so I need to create another user to see if I can solve the problem. But when I want to make a new user account and I get the following message: I can't create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service has no logon.

    I haven't added new programs in a long time and I don't know when this question has been raised as I've had my laptop for 3 years and this is the first time I create another account than my original. I don't want to reset my computer manufactured settings.

    I also followed the http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/947215/en-us but I can't find any registry master in the list of profiles. In fact, I am the only user in there...

    It seems that my computer does not have a record in the system registry.

    In fact, the problem started when I tried to fix the "C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer.or on a network. Check to make sure that the disc is inserted correctly, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If he can't always find the information could have been moved to another location. "I was at least able to connect in the new user but will load a default profile and therefore do not load the profile properly. It seems I've done worse the problem after doing

    gpupdate/force

    at the prompt as an administrator.

    The very initial problem started all this was when I was running from Autodesk Inventor, it gives me the following error: Mismatched Ole32.dll and Comcat.dll. And the support2.microsoft.com/kb/201364/en-us is to say that since I am under Win7, the solution is not applied. So I'm stuck. And the next move was trying to see if a new user profile may solve the problem.

    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    And if possible, please also suggest a "repair" method so I can get Win7 function correctly without reinstalling the whole machine. "" I use a laptop so I do not have installation media.

    Thank you.

    2. Click on manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    3. Click on create a new account.

    4. Type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

    To copy files to the new user profile

    After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

    1. Log on as a user other than the new user that you created or the user that you want to copy the files.

    2. Open Documents by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Documents.

      If you don't see the Tools menu, press ALT.

    4. Click the view tab, click hidden files and folders, clear the Hide protected operating system files check box, and then click OK.

    5. Find the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur represents the name of the profile you want to copy the files to.

    6. Select all the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:

      • Ntuser.dat

      • Ntuser.dat.log

      • Ntuser.ini

    7. Click the Edit menu and then click on copy.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    8. Look for the C:\Users\New_Username folder, where C represents the drive Windows is installed, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.

    9. Click the Edit menu and then click on paste.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    10. Sign out and then sign back in as a new user.

      If you have messages in e-mail, such as Windows Mail, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything is working properly, you can delete the old profile.

  • Microsoft Office not installed in the new user account

    I recently installed Microsoft Office 2013 month last on my Windows 7 PC.  A few days ago, I created a new user account, but for some reason, Microsoft Office is not installed on this account.  It still works fine on other accounts of 2 user on my PC, but it's just a nuisance to have to switch between user accounts to use Office.  Is anyway to fix this?  I tried to fix it on my account, but nothing seems to have happened.

    (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:

    The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

  • Illustrator CC will launch only in the new user account.

    I had trouble with the main user account settings causing newly installed apps crashing.

    I couldn't install Adobe Creative Cloud apps on the main account... they kept crashing on launch.

    With the help of Adobe Support (take control remotely from my Mac), after having tried and tried to install it on my main user account, that they finally successfully the installed in a new account user without problem. However, it's a workaround and not the best solution.

    It seems that the account settings user principal is in contradiction with the launch of the product. On installing successfully on the new user account they strongly suggest that I should now get in touch with you, the guys at Apple support to verify authorization/main user account settings and check if there is no certain permissions that may conflict with Adobe Illustrator CC.

    As advised, I contacted Apple Supprt and spent several hours and has done the following with their help:

    DISK UTILITY

    The disk verified permissions

    The repaired disk permissions

    Disc checked

    ADOBE PRODUCTS

    Confirmed that Acrobat Pro XI worked in the Admin user account

    Confirmed that Dreamweaver CC worked to the Admin user account

    Confirmed that InDesign CC worked to the Admin user account

    Confirmed that the bridge CC worked to the Admin user account

    Confirmed that Photoshop CC worked to the Admin user account

    Confirmed that Illustrator CC doesn't have a user Admin account, but has worked in the new user account.

    Uninstalled Illustrator CC and reinstalled through Creative Cloud CC

    Removed all 17 Illustrator preferences in both libraries

    As before Illustrator CC doesn't have a user Admin account, but has worked in the new user account.

    APPLE SUPPORT SUGGESTION

    I'll be back for you, by saying: "...". This would be better handled by the adobe User support REPS specific errors can occur in any application and there are things that the 3rd third party provider can look at to solve this problem. »

    I'm getting hit back like a tennis ball. Any solid suggestions? Everyone has been through this loop?

    Hi creatorii,

  • New user account does nothing to activate the installation of CS5

    Hello

    One of our workstations editing cannot install Photoshop without major errors. We used the installation disk in the original user account, but also a new user account. Since I saw posts here about the bad disks sent from Adobe, we tried the trial for installation download and this attempt also failed in another 30 days user account. We received our software about a month ago and this user must be able to really use it. It installs and launches, but with major errors as shown in the screenshots accompanying:

    Picture 1.png

    Picture 2.png

    The second screenshot is just to show the information at the bottom of the error field, after scrolling down.

    -What do you think we should do next? Continue to use CS4 and ask for a refund?

    Hello

    It would be useful to circumscribe the problem, if you could post the Installer log located at

    / Library/Logs/Adobe/installers

    Also you can check if the following files exist on your computer?

    1 /etc/mach_init_per_user.d/

    2 / library/LaunchDaemons

    If this isn't the case, then you may want to try to create these folders manually and then try the installation again.

    Good luck!
