I just activated the "Administrator" account in my new vista ultimate install..
using cmd -> "net users Administrator /active:yes" It worked and I now get two accounts for login at boot - admin and my own. Thing is though - the bloomin "Administrator" account isn't letting in. it keeps telling me the password is wrong! even though I never bloomin set one at any time. I've tried leaving it blank which is what is suppsoed to be the norm for it being activated the 1st time see, no apssword in it, and I've tried my own suer account password, which is sorta semi admin account as it says its administrator in "user accoutns"... none of them work. I'm stuck as to what to do tbh. I want to be able to access ANY DIR or file in my own user account, but I cant right now, crimes I cant even access "My Documents" in the left hand column in explorer as I dont have permission. So I need to get into the admin account to set my user \aaccoutns perms for stuff. Any ideas? Nemes

Nevermind
I managed to sort the password by using the cmd.exe and then the command "control userpasswords2" to set the password to what I wanted ![]() Nemes
