    Admin Account Cannot Access Contol Panel or Windows Update


    I have a problem with my Administrator Accounts in that I cannot access the below although I CAN access them from a Standard User Account???

    1 When I try to start Windows Update (START / ALL PROGRAMS / WINDOWS UPDATE)
    I get the following: Application not found

    2 When I wish to access ANYTHING from the Control Panel (START / CONTROL PANEL / anything in Control Panel) or try to access START / DEVICES AND PRINTERS I get the following: a long string of numbers

    3 When I try to get to Default Programs (START / DEFAULT PROGRAMS) I get the following: another long string of numbers.

    Did try to attach screen shots but didn't work.


    I can however access everything from a STANDARD USER account????

    I am running Windows 7 Ultimate N

    I would appreciate any assistance as the only assistance on the web is of no use as I have tried the limited suggestions without success and am totally at a loss now!

    Thanks

    Try this: Set Program Access and Computer Defaults - Enable or Disable

    Have you attempted a AV scan?

    Hope this helps,
