  • Help! Account administrator - account limited - system indicates 'my computer name' listed as the administrator built-in locked out

    I accidentally deleted my domain name (or user name) name of what I thought, it was the administrator account on my computer and have had problems with this terrible OS (Windows XP Home Edition) since then.

    After reading so many different forums and comments everywhere you can imagine, I am inclined to believe that the account was in fact the built-in Administrator account Windows XP Home edition without an administrator account. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Now, I have more administrator access nor can I make changes or install programs and am extremely frustrated.

    My account is now show as a guest, even if all my files are always available. Fortunately, the files were shared (at least this is what HP told me) don't know if I believe that all they said.

    When I fell net user list all users on my computer, there is NO listed administrator account. I see my guest account, another account I have on the system with limited access and four other records that don't make sense. I also tried to access the account of SafeMode several times and still don't see it.

    This is the information that is collected from the command net user:

    The user shows my "name of the guest account; Full name is empty; Comment watch "of the computer or to the domain administrative account"; Active account, '' Yes. '' Membership in a local group, "Administrators"; Membership of a global group, 'none '.

    So, I did a search on the Internet looking for more answers and came across a Web site that lists a likely solution (something new) because I assumed it was a registry problem (HP something else advised, in addition to the OS being corrupt, trying to add the administrator account), bringing my departure to HKEY_Classes_Root to check permissions for each user and possibly add permission for my so-called Administrator and guest account.

    So I went to check the users listed in the registry under HKEY_Classes_Root and find the names of users or groups:

    1. administrators ("my computer name" \Administrator)

    2 creator owner - no

    3 system

    4. the user ('my computer name' \users).

    So I followed the instructions and when it came to the part 'Search now', I clicked on the button to find the user accounts on my computer and found the following:

    Administrator - "my computer name.

    Comments (shows red (X))

    Guests (network)

    Help Wizard (shows red (X))

    Helpservers (network service)

    HP_Owner (interactive logon remotely)

    'Username guest' (service)

    "Another user name" (system)

    and some other user... information irrelevant.

    Now, I have a virus on the "another user name account" that I can't remove nor can I feed my antivirus because of the problem of the Administrator program. I also tried to save my files online and can not do it because I can not install any programs due to... Yes, the question of the administrator.

    Can someone please, please tell me what can be done to fix this? I'm at my wits end. I don't think that it requires my withdrawal, repair and reinstall my BONES together. There have a solution to this problem. And I hope that's not the same answers as I read in so many forums that seem to give the same answer over and over again. Also, I apologize if I look a little rough, but I'm so very frustrated with this XP thing. I had multiple computers and different systems of BONE, which I've NEVER had any problems, but this XP thing is by far the worst I've ever seen in the history of my experiences with many computers.

    Help, please!

    I understand your frustration.  However, one of the hardest parts to try to provide technical support through a forum like this (or by e-mail or phone even) communicates with precision between the problem and the person trying to help. Although your message is long, it raises more questions than it provides information.

    For example:

    I am inclined to believe that the account was in fact the built-in Administrator account Windows XP Home edition without an administrator account. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Windows XP Home Edition, indeed there is a built-in Administrator account, but by default it is only available in Mode without failure.  Somehow, you managed a rename this account in all what you mean by , (b) accessible in normal mode, (c) leave it in the administrator group, but d remove administrative privileges on account of.

    In addition, I don't know where you looked under .  As far as I know, there is nothing on the permissions of the user.  This website has the instructions you followed?

    I suspect that the cause of your problem may be 'the' virus (there may be several) which has infected your computer, rather than what you did to your user account.  If you are able, I suggest to run each of the following free applications:

    Malwarebytes Anti-Malware: malwarebytes.org [update after installation]

    SUPERAntiSpyware: superantispyware.com [update after the installation or the use of theportable version , which needs no installation]

    Multi-AV - Instructions here:http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/01/09/scan-your-computer-with-multiple-anti-virus-for-free/

    Although you're probably right, that reinstalling Windows is not necessary, it is the solution of many remote (including those in the forums like this) fall back on when he cannot understand what is happening.  At this point, your best option would be to take your computer to a competent local professional (not a type of BigComputerStore/geeksquad of the place) and let someone actually watch.  Tell them that you do not want to reinstall Windows.

    Ask them if they can do a "repair installation" instead (although this cannot fix things in the case of a serious viral infection).  The difference between a repair facility and a 'clean install' or 'restore factory settings' is that the last two options delete all your data and all the applications you installed since you bought the computer.  A repair installation - if this works as expected - keeps the data and applications.  But it's always a good idea to back up the data before you do anything like that.

  • I can't delete a folder because I do not have the permission, but I am the administrator. It doesn't let me change the permissions. Help?

    First of all, sorry if this is in the wrong place. I had no idea what section to post this in.
    Today, I was using a program for the 'Minecraft' game called MultiMC and removing files that it created I don't have anymore, I came across a folder, I could not open, delete, or do something with. When I try to open it it says ' (place) is not accessible. Access is denied. " When I try to remove it, he said ' you must be authorized to perform this action. You need computer administrator permissions to change this folder ' (though, I'm the administrator - only account on the computer). It also gives me 'Retry' and the options to cancel, nor necessary. On properties it says "Unable to display current owner" and won't let me change the owner, even to the administrator. The file is 0 bytes in size, but I want to get rid of because I might want to remove the folder that it is in the future, besides I don't know if it's a virus or whatever it is. Please can someone help.

  • need help with access to the administrator account

    I know that there is an account on my computer called Administrator. I know because when I type NET USER in CMD it gives me an account named Administrator. When I type in NET USER ADMINISTRATOR cmd, I get: active account number how can I activate this account?

    I know that there is an account on my computer called Administrator. I know because when I type NET USER in CMD it gives me an account named Administrator. When I type in NET USER ADMINISTRATOR cmd, I get: active account number how can I activate this account?

    Given that the account is already active, you will not have to activate it. Anyway, you can type
    NET user administrator / Active: Yes
    When you are connected under an administrator account. Note that by using the administrator account gives you exactly the same privileges as any other admin account. There is no difference.
  • I need help to change the administrative password

    How can I change the administrative password when the computer was a gift and I do not know the password. I need the password to set anything in the computer, including the time?

    Can you log on under an admin account - any admin account? If this isn't the case, then you must ask the former owner for the password.

  • I accidentally deleted the administrator account while trying to get rid of administrator privileges - HELP!

    I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges for that when I'm on another user account he don't ask me the password, or install all the files that I had the intention of this account to the administrator account. I used the command net user administrator / active: No.

    I'm not quite sure if I completely deleted the account or hidden in some way, but now whenever I try to do anything that requires the administrator password (almost everything) I don't even have an opportunity to choose Yes to enter and only the no option I can't change any settings on the computer at all by using a user account This being via CommandPrompt, Panel etc. I'm at a complete loss as what to do.

    (Also, if someone was uncertain, the account Administrator is not visible on the screen to connect.)

    I used CommandPrompt to try to rid the administrator privileges

    -> Order net user administrator / active: No. will do exactly what it says: it allows to disable the administrator account. That is to throw the main key to the safe. Here's how you can reverse this reckless action:
    1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    7. Set Windows to a point before you demoted the administrator account.
    8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, even you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

  • LaserJet M1212nf MFP: Setting up printer blocked by the administrator

    Hey. I've updated to win 10 - now try to install the printer LaserJet have disabled Kasperski, but still get the msg: an administrator has blocked you from running this application. For more information, contact the administrator.
    Pls help.
    Thank you

    Good afternoon @Wogla777,.

    It is a great location for extra support! I see you are having problems installing the printer software. I'd be happy to help you.

    I have provided with steps to unlock the hidden administrator account and the installation of the printer on this account to see if this will help this situation.

    Note: Do not connect the USB cable until you are prompted during the installation.

    • Go to your Start menu and in the box "search programs and files", type CMD.
    • CMD will fill as an option to search above, just right-click on it and "run as Administrator".
    • Once opens in CMD (command prompt), type net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.
    • Then, close CMD and then restart your computer.
    • When your computer is on the newspaper in the new account which should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it.
    • If your computer automatically connects to your account after the restart then go to your Start menu and click on the arrow next to 'shutdown' and choose 'change user '. Now log on to the administrator account, that we have just released.
    • Under the administrator account, install the printer software.
    • Test the printer.
    • To disable the Admin account start at step 1 and type net user administrator / active: No..

    If you still experience this issue, it may be the user's profile. Create a new user and try to install the printer on this account.

    • Open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.
    • Click on manage another account.
    • Click on create a new account.
    • Install the printer on this account.

    To say thanks, you can click the 'Thumbs Up' and if the question
    is resolved you can click on the button "accept as a Solution.
    Please let me know the results. See you soon!
