No administrator account on vista
I used to have an administrator account and one standard user account.Then, I accidentally changed my administrator account type to a standard user. so now i have no administrator account on my vista home premium. I can't install,unistall or even change my account type back. The user account control keeps on poping out on the screen asking me to type in the administrator account password. But I don't have any. so please help me, i need an adminstrator account badly. -- andywlim

No administrator account on vista
Hello Andy, See if when you boot into Safe Mode that it will boot you into the built-in Administrator account since you do not have an administrator account anymore. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/123496-safe-mode.html If it does, then you can change that account back to an administrator type account. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/12...ount-type.html If it does not, then you can try a repair (upgrade) install to get a new administrator account. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88...all-vista.html Hope this helps, Shawn andywlim;827093 Wrote: I used to have an administrator account and one standard user account.Then, I accidentally changed my administrator account type to a standard user. so now i have no administrator account on my vista home premium.
