IT Queries: Computer problems answered

I cannot access administrator account. I think it got happened while i was playing with computer management.

Not having a Administrator account can cause all manner of problems with Windows. So you’ll need to get this back.

First check if the Administrator account still exists. To do this, click Start, Run and type  Control userpasswords2. This will get you into the User Accounts screen.

If Administrator exists there, click change password and that should reset it. You may have to re-enable the account.

The next step is to do a System Restore.  We have instructions on a previous post.

Should these not clear it then the Windows Vista Forums have a detailed post on how to fix the problem. The instructions are quite complex and involve some knowledge of using the Windows Registry.

If you don’t have this knowledge then we’d strongly suggest contacting your local computer tech.
