I recently ran the MSBA program to determine my security
vulnerabilities. The scan determined that my Administrator password was blank. I log on with my username & password, and have administrator rights. How do I find the Administrator account that they are talking about and how do I give it a password? The only 2 accounts I can find is mine and the guest (which is turned off). |

Deborah;
That is referring to the hidden Administrator. You can access in Safe Mode: Reboot tapping F8 each second. Select Safe Mode at the menu. Once logged in, go to User Accounts in Control panel. Select Administrator. From there you can set the password. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar/ "Deborah" wrote in message ...
