Default administration_accounts_passwords


wednesday 11-03-'09


I never payed much attention to register for an
(administrator)account/password, because I was the only user, and always
arrived direcly to the office-disk, when starting the computer.
But now, when triing to install new (pinacle) software, I am summoned to
log in as a administrator.
I made an account + password, but I am still not acknowladged as an
administrator.
Maybe I ever entered a password, wich I dont know anymore.
How can things be put straight again?
Thank you in advance

Try going to Control Panel (Control Panel Home, not classic view) User
Accounts and Family Safety, User Accounts, Manage Another Account; and
see how many users there really are. If you are the only user as you say
you are, then: Go back 1 page, and click (above Manage Another Account)
Change Your Account Type, click Administrator, and click Ok. When that
is done, log off and back on. Then try again.
This is a shot in the dark because you may need a password to change
account type. But it may work. Try it.

restart your computer in unfail mode and log on administrator ( this acount
is hidden in normal mode) open the management console open user directory
and put your account un administrators group, then restart your computer,
good luck
