Administrator vs User
When I installed Windows on this new hard drive, I never set up a user account - just administator - and used no passwords. That is the way it is on other two hard drives. For 3 days, until I updated Windows, I never had to log in. Now after updates I have only one choice to log in - that is as "Ron Patterson" In Control Panel / User Accounts there are three icons: Ron Patterson, Computer Administrator Guest - "Guest account is off" Asp Net Machine - Limited Account When I boot up I have to log in as user - Ron Patterson. But when I try to run Acronis True Image it says it requires administrator priviledges. I thought I was the administrator. I try to find an administrator account to log into but the only account is Ron Patterson, Computer Administator which apparently I am not. Without logging in as Administrator I can't run (or delete) this program which is very important to me. I am very confused. Is there any way to get rid of the User Account without losing all my programs? - or at least to log in so I have administrator rights. Ron Patterson |
