• Administrator account is not belong to / inherit the privilege BUILDIN administrators group?

  I use a laptop Windows 8.1 and I installed MS SQL Server with Analysis Services.

  My Windows account type is administrator.

  During the installation of SQL server, I was stupid enough to forget to add myself as a SQL server admin.

  Now SSAS blocked my admin access, and I can't make changes to SSAS.

  The main question I have is,

  Windows 8.1, the administrator account is not belong to / inherit the privilege BUILDIN administrators group?

  As Windows 8.1 does not lusrmgr.msc, I can't see it. (And I'm not going to upgrade to Windows Pro 8.1 only for this reason).

  The second question is:

  Do I have to re - install SSAS, in order to add a server administrator account?

  Thank you.

  Kind regards

  Liz

• Adobe Flash Player works fine on my administrator account, but not on my user account.

  On my PC, I have an administrator account and a personal account. My OS is Vista Home premium 64-bit and I only use THE 32-bit version or Firefox.  I uninstalled and installed Flash on both accounts to make sure that I have the latest version, but the Flash works on my administrator account.  I checked that Shockwave Flash Object add on is enabled.  I checked the Flash executables reside in both SysWOW64\Macromed\flash and System32\Macromed\flash files, although the FlashUtil64_11_3_300_270_Activex.exe is located in the System32 folder and the FlashUtil32... resides in the SysWOW64 folder that seems intuitive.  But it works on the administrator account, so I guess that's not the issue.  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  1. What is the error message on the nonadministrator account?

  2. what happens when you try to play videos online using Internet Explorer?

  3. what version of IE are you using?

  4. What is the accurate and complete error message?

  Method 1.

  Follow these steps and let me know the status.

  1 Uninstall Flash Player of two user accounts.

  2. reinstall Flash player only on the admin account. You must install only the 32-bit version of Flash Player.

  Method 2.

  It is likely that the user account can be corrupted.

  You can create a new user account and check if the problem persists.

  Create a user account: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-user-account

  If the problem is resolved, the corruption of user account is confirmed. You can see the article 'Fix a corrupted user profile', so that you can transfer all the necessary data on the account damaged to the new account.

  I recently downloaded mcafee on my computer

  This error can usually be fixed by following the steps below. All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you. After getting into the system, make sure that you scan for malware as the problem you describe can be caused by an infection.

  1 log on to a different user account with administrative privileges. If you neglected to make an account additional administrative steps 2-3. Otherwise, continue to step 4. See also General information on setting up user accounts in Vista at the end of this post.

  2 in Mode safe boot. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. That you will get to the menu on the right where you can use your arrow key to select Mode safe [Enter]. The built-in Administrator account is disabled by default in Vista. However, if no other administrative accounts exist on the system it can be activated. If this is the case, you will see an icon for the administrator on the homescreen mode without failure. Login to the administrator.

  3 If you don't see the icon for the administrator mode safe account, then the built-in Administrator account is always disabled so you will need to work more. If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode.  Or you can do a repair file Vista bootable DVD in this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need the third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

  Now remove the rescue CD/DVD, you have done, reboot Windows and log on to the built-in Administrator account, you enabled.

  4. try a system restore to when things worked. If you can log in to your user account, you are finished. Otherwise, continue to step 5.

  5. the critical files are under % systemdrive%\users\user-account\ntuser. The ntuser.dat file is actually a registry hive. Run Regedit high and select HKEY_USERS and "load hive" in the menu. Now, go to:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

  There is a line for each profile. If a profile is bad, check:

  (a) that the name of the key does not stop in ".bak" (remove .bak If it)
  (b) that the RefCount value is 0 (change it if it is different)
  (c) that the State value is 0 (change if different)

  Make the necessary changes, close Regedit and try to connect as this user.

  6. If that doesn't solve your profile, it is corrupt. When you do that, you should make a new Standard user account and copy your data to it. Do not delete the old account until you have recovered data you need!

  Once everything works, go to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

  Exit the command prompt.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it can be more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• My administrator account does not accept my password.

  Once I turn on my computer, I have two accounts, one for me and my young son (Administrator account) it won't take my password.

  You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, you can use one of the following methods instead. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

  All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

  Method 1 - if you have a Vista DVD installation (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes
  NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234. If you do not have a Vista installation DVD, you can either make a bootable DVD of Vista repair in the file at this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Method 2 - or you can use NTpassword to change the password of your user account to a blank. In both cases, you need third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

  http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

  3. sign in to your administrative user (not the built-in administrator) account which will be the subject of any password or something simple like "1234".

  If you used method 1, after that connect you to your administrative user account, you must disable the administrator built-in yet for security reasons:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

  Exit the command prompt.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

• Administrative account does not exist

  I don't know what happened, but my administrative account no longer exists.  I can not add to an admin account because you need an administrator account for that, this is the vicious circle.  I have all tried, but each time I try to make any changes to my computer it won't let me type a password to admin, or say Yes.  The only option I have is to reject all changes.  I can do or should I just reset my computer?

  I had the same problem and I just solve it.

  • Try to open your laptop in safe mode by:
  • Press + I to display the menu of charm.
  • Click the Power Options icon, and then hold down the SHIFT key while you click the Restart option. Keep now shift until the screen shows it restarts.
  • On the first screen that appears, select troubleshooting, and then select Advanced Options. Finally, choose the boot settings and click Restart.
  • On the next screen, press the number 4 to choose Safe Mode.

  • Stand the built in Administrator account account.
  • go to control panel and open user accounts and family safety.
  • Open change the type of account , click your account.

  Now, the problem should be solved just restart the laptop and open it in the usual way.

• Slow connection (10-15 seconds) for Windows 7 Home Premium administrator accounts, but not standard accounts

  I have a new computer with a new installation of Windows 7 Home Premium.
  This is a pretty fast PC with an i7 2600 and an SSD.

  When I log on to an administrator account, it takes about 10-15 seconds, however when I connect to a standard account, it takes less than a second.

  I can create a standard account, sign a bunch of times immediately, then give him admin privileges and it suddenly starts to take 10-15 seconds. He switch back to the standard, and login is immediate.

  Any ideas what may be the cause?

• Program runs in the hidden administrator account, but not the administrator account

  I have been using Altium Designer for about 5 months. One day, I tried Eun and got the error "dxp.exe has stopped working.  So, after trying a re-boot.  I have reinstalled the software.  At the end of installation, I get the message "the system administrator has set policies that prevent this facility." The installation then said that the installation has been completed successfully. I tried: unlock all files in the installation directory, run the installation as an administrator, the installation running on the hidden administrator account. Turn off UAC.

  The installation leaves me with a program which runs in hidden administrator but not nromal administrator.  Even if the install ation was made as normal anministrator.

  I am running Windows 7 Home premium, so the control of local security is not available.

  Thank you for your help ITKnowledge24.  Your post helped me to find parts of the program that I would never know that existed.

  It turns out that my problem was in two parts.  First what killed the software is primarily a print unrelated dirver.  (go figure)  Installation errors were caused because I downloaded the version recient most of the manufacturer's Web site.  When I reinstalled using the old version, the installation was without error.  The software starts to run correctly when the printer driver has been removed.  It seems that windows security was only a Kipper.

• Cannot remove folder AppData in the closed user - administrator account is not enough - owner is "HomeUsers' - OS Win7 Home Premium

  Because it is not possible in Home Premium Win7 for access to the control administrator privileges, I can't understand how to erase all files from the folder of the deleted user.  The user, Jake, had somehow "HomeUsers" as long as the owner of the folder for some reason any.  I checked in another location and Jake folder has been shared with the residential group which is listed as the owner?

  Can I download a utility that will allow me to have the equivalent of control of folders and groups in professional Win7 and Optimum of operation systems.  All I want to do is remove AppData folder hidden from Jake and all of its subfolders.  I tried to change the owner of HomeUsers to the administrator which I already activated.  But the administrator does not sufficient privileges to delete the folder and subfolders, one at a time or all at once. Or from the bottom up (first of all the latest files and folders).

  From what I see in Google ads there are a lot of hit us this security risk... The folder has been shared and accessible for a reason even if we used Page sharing to enable sharing and direct access to the records is used to disable sharing. That's why I pulled off the system Jake account.  We need assistance.  It's not a glitch in nice.  Something had access to our system and that access to create a more powerful than the administrator user.

  Try to delete the file when logged in as an administrator in Mode safe account. If failure repeated, follow these steps:

  1. Use F8 during startup to start the machine in Repair Mode.
  2. Open a command prompt.
  3. Type this command:
     RD /s /q C:\Users\Jake

  Deleting a folder of this profile is permanent. You will not be able to restore it from the Recycle Bin.

• Mouse freezing on the administrator account, but not on the other 8 portable computer user accounts windows

  Hi I have a Toshiba laptop, it's only a few months. This is the second time I had this problem the first time I had to delete the user account and to set up a new.

  I was on the laptop and all of a sudden the mouse wouldn't move. I pressed the Start button of windows and door to the top of the start screen. I was able to move with the keyboard, but the mouse did not work. So I pressed CTRL + ALT + DELETE and disconnected.
  When I clicked on one my friends login it worked fine no problems with the mouse so I logged in my own but the mouse is still stuck.
  I restarted my laptop and check the updates, but my laptop is fully updated.
  I have not used my account for a few days and I just connected again and the mouse worked. I opened an excel file and started working on it for about ten minutes when the mouse froze again. I am now logged in on my friends account and it works fine.
  Any ideas? I don't really want again to delete my account!

  Nothing extraordinary. I do not use many standard only apps provided with the operating system. I upgraded to 8.1 after posting the question, it seems to have done the trick... for now... If all goes well!

• In safe MODE, search with the administrator account can not find secpol.msc, otherwise how can I access local policies?

  If you have Windows 7 Home Premium then it didn't GOT secpol.

  Why do you feel the need to turn off UAC on a computer at home? You should not really, you know, and in fact there is absolutely no need to do.

  So what user files you are denied access to? Is it Documents and Settings perhaps?

• Administrator account does not load

  Hello
  I had problems with IE 8 and wanted to uninstall/reinstall, but admin password did not work with the pop-up window when logged in as a normal user.  I went to the admin profile users but not able to connect and received the following message.

  Service user profile Service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded

  So I go into the event viewer to see the activity and find the following:

  • The description for event ID 0 in source AtBroker is not found. Either the component that triggers this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
  • If the event is on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
  • The following information has been included in the event:
  • GetSessionValue has not value public session error 2

  And it requires an admin override in the details of xml:

  -
   Access is denied.
  • Windows cannot load the user's profile, but you have logged on with the default profile for the system.
  • DETAIL - access is denied.

  Because I do not have access to the security log, I pulled the above on the Application logs.

  Hey bubbles Whith,

  O your computer is on a domain?

  This behavior can occur if the user profile was deleted manually using the command prompt or by using Windows Explorer. A profile that is manually deleted does not remove the security identifier (SID) of the list of profiles in the registry.

  If the SID is present, Windows will try to load the profile by using the ProfileImagePath that points to a nonexistent path. Therefore, the profile cannot be loaded.

  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:

  322756 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/) how to back up and restore the registry in Windows

  To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

  1. Delete the profile by using the computer properties dialog box. To do this, follow these steps:

  (a) click Start, right-click computer, and then click Properties.

  (b) click on change settings.

  (c) in the System Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab.

  (d) under user profiles, click settings.

  (e) in the user profiles dialog box, select the profile that you want to remove, click Remove, and then click OK.

  2. Search for, and then expand the following registry subkey:

  2. Log on to the computer and create a new profile.
