• RA media server became administrator after changing my standard user account

  What is the password?

  RA media server became administrator after changing my standard user account. Now, I can not retrieve my admin rights because he kept asking admin password that I don't know. System Restore didn't help coz' it was not far enough for the moment I changed my standard user account.

  I called Dell, but I don't want to pay the support service which costs more than a hundred dollars.

  I need some help on how I could get my admin rights back again.

  I have no copy of the installers for some of my important software which is why I'm afraid to reinstall the program, or even do a system recovery.

  I use a 32-bit vista. The only solution I can think of is to get "system user", but I don't know how.

  Please I need help.

• Unable to connect to the internet from the Standard user account.

  Original title: query on standard user accounts

  I created a standard user account, but I can't connect to internet, my administrator account is correct, what do I do?

  Hi MaxQG,

  1. what happens when you try to access the Internet from the standard user account?

  2. you receive messages or error codes?

  3. have you ever connect to the Internet from the standard user account?

  You can check if there are parental controls together to prevent the user to access the Internet. You can see the bottom of the article for more information on this:

  What can I control with Parental controls?

• 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.

• Somehow, I blocked my user account (login) and I tried to help but can't find any info. How to UNLOCK the user account. Than k you

  The user has clicked on Vista, the little lock at the bottom of the START window.

  Somehow, I blocked my user account (login) and I tried to help but can't find any info. How to UNLOCK the user account. Thank you

  Hello

  Click the account icon that was locked and enter the password IF you know and otherwise:

  Try Safe Mode - several times, press F8 that you start. The Admin account there is no default password
  so unless someone has changed, you should have access there. Then Control Panel - accounts - users
  Manage another account - use this down your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
  then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
  Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
  wish.

  If no joy Mode without failure:

  Try this - use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
  then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
  Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
  wish.

  Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
  repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

  DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

• Can someone download programs from the internet by using a standard user account?

  My grandchildren use my computer, & they like to download & install games on internet, but I don't want that they are able to do with my computer. I need to know if using a standard user account will stop to do that. Thanks for the help.

  Yes, they can still download programs but may not be able to install them. An easy way to check is to create the account, connect to it and try it and then you will know for sure.

  I hope this helps.

• How to configure a user account so that they can not install, download or change anything on this user's profile?

  I use Windows 7. I'm not a proffesional on computers. I can usually work my way around them if they say what to do. I have Setup as an administrator. Can I make changes while I'm still under the profile administrator or do I have to go to the guest profile?

  Thank you

  Make a standard user account.  That's all.  If they are not administrators - they are limited about changing their profile.  They can even install some things that install on their profile only-, but no systemic change.
   
  Or they can use the guest account - which is a bit more limited.

• I can't connect to a standard user account

  When I try to log in under a standard user account, it shows a window screen then quickly shows a logging off the screen.  I don't want to lose any information on the user account, since it holds all of my apllication of college girls and correspondence.  Before it begins to spoil, I used Malwarebyte s to the clean computer and used the avg pc tuneup utility also clean my pc.  Can anyone help?

  You must do immediately:

  1. Buy one or two USB 4 or 8 GB flash drives. They cost about $10 each.
  2. Logging in as an administrator account.
  3. Back up files of your daughter on the flash drive, then take the stick to the machine from a friend and do a few checks to ensure that you can open the files. It is difficult to understand how you could take the risk and just storing them in one place. I see a dozen scenarios in which you could lose the lot in less than a second.
  4. Check back here for instructions on how to repair the machine.

• I would like to change the password of a standard user account.

  original title: change password in Windows 7

  I would like to change the password of a standard user account. Windows 7 tells me that if I do that some data may be lost. What data, specifically, I lose if I proceed?

  I solved the problem.

  Initially, I tried to reset the password using computer management > local users and groups > set password. However when I tried Control Panel > user accounts > manage user accounts > reset password I was able to change it without any error message. I guess there is a difference between 'set password' and 'reset password '.

  Hi Jillgatewood,

  You did a recovery password file? You can use it to reset your password. Unfortunately if you have lost or forgotten your password, you will need to consult this article KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/189126/en-gb

• I have a user account, but the type is standard user... I can't create an administrator user... because when I press on it see something that says that WINDOWS needs YOUR permission TO CONTINUE to create... Fix this please...

  I have a user account, but the type is standard user... I can't create an administrator user... because when I press on it see something that says that WINDOWS needs YOUR permission TO CONTINUE to create... Fix this please...

  To create an administrator account, you must be...
  (1.) an administrator
  (2.) to connect to the existing administrator account, or in possession of an administrator password.
  If you do not have all of the above, forget it.

  When the system asked you for permission, you should click on continue or enter the Admin password. If you could not do either, it means that you don't have administrative rights to do what you want.

• Can I disable UAC when autologon on a standard user account an automatic device under WES7?

  Hello

  I'm developing digital signage players who run under WES7 with automatic logon on a standard user account. There are no keyboard, no mouse, without human intervention, but only a screen for video display, which are automatically downloaded from a content server. Each entry ports are disabled.

  Please, could we have an official point of view of Microsoft experts to approve (or not rejecting not) turning off UAC (0) on such a configuration?

  In advance, thank you for your collaboration!

  Best regards

  The UAC is designed to avoid that explicit programs to make changes to the registry, or system folders unless you give your consent. You will need to decide for yourself whether your computer could be exposed to malicious programs that tries to exploit the absence of UAC.
