  • There is a built-in hidden administrator account in Windows 10 which is no longer enabled by default since Windows Vista. Up until Windows XP the built in administrator account was readily available when you set up your computer for the first time. Now when you perform a fresh Windows installation like on Windows 10, the first setup account will be a local user account with administrator privileges, but it is not the built-in administrator account which has some extra perks that you are going to want to know about to impress your friends and make your Windows experience much more safe and secure. So today I will show you 3 ways to enable the built-in administrator account after a Windows installation, and I will also explain why you should do this as well as why you shouldn’t really bother, let’s tech it out.
    Command in CMD or Power Shell (Admin):
    net user administrator /active:yes
    net user administrator /active:no
    net user administrator password

    This video is Useless for someone just trying to access or remove the stupid admin acct that came with your home computer!!! When you 1st boot the comp & set it up you create the admin acct for it however, there is still a hidden admin account from the company that built the computer which has remote access ability!!! HOW DO YA GET RID OF THIS ADMIN acct or at least remove all the permissions that they have??

    I only wanted to show User 2 on boot up.
    and make Admin and User 1 appears inside the menu to switch.
    is this even possible?

    My built in (Windows 10) backup "ADMINISTRATOR USER ACCOUNT" seems to be totally gone. I can't even get to the C:windows\system32> window to start this process. It's not even letting me do a SYSTEM RESTORE--- because I no longer have Administrator permission, although I am the administrator. I don't even have a guest user option to create another account NOR the Local Users and Groups, in the Computer Management folder. Arrrggg!

  • @aryanarose6293
    @aryanarose6293 Před 3 lety +1

    I did not have Local Users and Groups through the same process. I had to type it in. When I got there, it said, "This snapin may not be used with this edition of Windows 10. To manage user accounts for this computer, use the User Accounts too in the Control Panel. When I went there, it says that I have all the administrator rights but it doesn't work! :(

  • @statesman6379
    @statesman6379 Před 2 lety

    I'm wondering if my computer is hacked. In my Word Documents, in the Properties, under Security, there is an extra account that says, "Account Unknown(X-X-XX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXX-XXXX)" and it has a long list of numbers where the X's are. Have I been hacked? If so, how can I get rid of this? Also, certain files won't open even across my Gmail attachment, one particular one is my Passcodes file.
    It says: "WOrd experienced an error trying to open the file. Try these suggestions. CHeck the file permissions for the document or drive. Make sure ther is sufficient memory and disk space. Open the file with Text Recovery converter.
    Actually just prior, about 2 days ago, the first strange thing that happened was that my computer suddenly said, "This computer has been locked." And I couldn't do anything. I recovered it by holding the power button down and turning it back on.

    @NotThatEpic7492 Před rokem +2

    you need windows 10/11 pro to activate the admin account in that way --BUT-- there is another way to do it.
    type cmd into search and run it as an administrator. once you have accepted the uac prompt, type in "net user Administrator /active:yes" without the quotation marks and press enter.
    then go to the lock screen and the administrator account should appear!
    i hope that helped you all for people stuck on windows 10/11 home.
