Satellite M70 - how to assign administrative rights for the user account under Win XP

I have a Toshiba SatM70 using Windows XP, don't know how but I lost administrator access and using a regular limited account.

I can't seem to get back to be the administrator and must because my anti virus protection picked something, but I can't fix because I get a message saying you are not logged in as administrator.

Can someone help me to find out how to return to be the administrator please? Thanks in advance.

  • How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    OT: Without administrator rights.

    I don't have my active administrator account.

    I had a user account that I removed myself from the group administrator.

    Now I'm locked to do anything.

    I can't assign me to the admin group, I can't allow the user to administrator, I can't edit some files or delete some software...

    I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

    I can't open the recovery mode, tried to start in safe mode and all the rest.

    How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    I had a user account, which I removed myself from the group administrator.

    -> This is called "paint yourself in a corner.

    I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.

    -> Is normal. Either you are an administrator, or you're not.

    How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?

    -> Ask a friend to burn a CD repair system for you (Control Panel / backup and restore). Now to use this CD to start the machine in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore to set Windows to a point before you downgrade your one and only the admin account.

    When you're done, plan ahead a little and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

This is a major threat. Paul

    Hi Paul,

    1. what anti-virus software do you use?

    2 you use the password while logging on to the user account?

    I suggest you of change the logon window and the shutdown preferences in Windows XP to resolve the problem.

    Setup configures Windows XP to use the friendly welcome logon screen and close buttons, if your computer is installed as a computer (a computer where a network domain has not been specified).

    This article describes how you can enable the classic logon screen used by Windows XP Server that resembles the following example:

    Log on to Windows

    User name: _______
    Password: __________

    To temporarily use the classic logon screen, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete twice on the Welcome logon screen.

    To configure Windows XP to use the classic logon and shutdown for each logon screens, follow these steps:

    a. click Startand then click Control Panel.
    b. double-click user accounts.
    c. click on change the way users log on or off the power.
    d. Click to uncheck the use the Welcome screen check box.

    Note: If you disable the Welcome logon screen, you also disable the fast user switching option.

    If you want users to press CTRL + ALT + DEL before the classic logon appears like a Windows XP-based computer that is joined to a domain, follow these steps:

    a. click Start, click run, type regedit in the Open box and then click OK.
    b. click the Winlogon subkey at the following registry location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
    c. click change, click newand then click DWORD value.
    d. to change the name of the value, type DisableCADand press ENTER.
    e. keep the data value set to 0. The set of data values appear as 0x00000000 (0).

    Warning: Ask users to press CTRL + ALT + DEL before the classic logon screen appears.

    If you don't want that, then come back in a classic.

    Note: To do: Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  • Need administrator rights for the Intel on Satellite Pro 2100 speed step

    Hello
    I have a Satellite PRO 2100 (Pentium 4 1.9 GHz).
    I have a problem with the function of the Intel speed step, which reduces the speed of the processor at 1.2 GHz. But I have a problem: I can do this, if I use an administrator account...
    After starting, if I connect with a simple user account, the Intel speed step works... and the speed of the cpu remains at 1.9 GHz.
    So I would like to use this function with a simple user account, how do I do it please?

    Thanks for your help :)

    Hello

    As far as I know that this application is not shipped with the image of Toshiba and it s not made not part of the image.
    But I put t see any big problems. You will need to change your account administrator rights. In this case, you will need to ask someone the admin right to edit your account.

    The other possibility is to change the law for this software. There can be changes as by admin. What you can change in the Security tab in the program properties. Full control must be set to all.

    Then, it should be possible to use this application with your account.

  • Remove or disable the protection password for the user account

    I have two accounts on my computer to my name. One is an administrator account. The other is a local account. I use the local one for all my general purpose computer. The administrator of one I use only to make changes. I created a password for what I believed to be the administrator account. Actually, I created a password for my local account. Now, I have to sign before I can use the computer. I can't find a way to remove or disable the password without deleting my local account. If I delete the account I'll lose everything in the account. We know how if it is possible to delete or disable a password protected account password?

  • No privileges for the user account

    Hey there,

    I have a strange problem and I'm not finding useful answers...

    I installed Windows 7 Pro on a box that is used as a file server, database server and the virtual machine host.

    Homegroup is disabled and password sharing is turned on. While I am trying to solve the problems, the firewall is disabled.

    To manage permissions on the various actions, I created a few accounts: media, phone, remote_admin.

    All three accounts have been removed from the 'Users' group so that they are not displayed on the logon page, and I used netplwiz to set my default account to connect automatically. Phone users and the media behave as expected, they have access to their respective shares, and the permissions are applied correctly. The problem happens with the user remote_admin.

    The user is a member of the Administrators group, interactive logon is disabled, so it can be used only for the administration of the network. Even if the account is a member of the Administrators group, I can't be able to access network shares. I can connect to the network and list of the actions available on the box, but each of them is denied access. I created a sharing with access explicitly for the Administrators group and made sure the permissions of file system corresponding, but I am still unable to access any of the actions. I tried the same thing with explicit access to the account and got the same results.

    Thinking it was a problem with the specific account, I deleted and recreated. Even without any modification of the authorisation, the account cannot access the network shares. After you re-create the account does not appear in managing accounts through Control Panel, but I'm able to see it in the accounts of users through computer management. In its default state, the account is allowed for a direct connection and can access the files on the disk, but cannot access the actions; during or remotely connected to the box.

    Any thoughts?

    * EDIT: I can not mark my own reply as an answer

    All permissions to the shares are refused to the Administrators group by the UAC. Deny it does not take precedence over those that are permitted explicitly to the user or another group, there are a number of solutions:

    (a) allow access to the user explicitly.

    (b) add the users to another group (not integrated) and allow access to it.

    (c) turn off UAC.

    (d) modify the registry to disable the restrictions placed on the Administrators group:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem\\\.

    Create or change the key called LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy (DWORD32) and set its value to 1.

    C and D above cause of the Administrators group to behave as it did in Windows XP. Access to shares default is restored (C$, D$ etc.). This also affects a number of other restrictions which have been implemented by the UAC as the driver installation and access to system folders.

    The main difference between options C and D is C will remove all restrictions of UAC to the machine, while D will only remove the restrictions applied to network access.
