Lets try this
Open up an Elevated Command Prompt. Click onin
type CMD . Right click on CMD under Programs (1) choose
. On the User Access Control window click on the Yes button . Command Prompt opens up to C:\Windows\System32>_
Inside the Command Prompt
Type in the command below
net localgroup Administrators User /addpress Enter
Log off from the built-in Administrator account and log in under User ( your account ) and see if you have Administrator rights .
I'm probably getting the below error message as I followed redfang337's instructions a couple posts back and already switched 'user' over to the account type of 'Administrator'. If so, does that mean I'm all finished?
Code:Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:\windows\system32>net localgroup Administrators User /add System error 1378 has occurred. The specified account name is already a member of the group.
Leave the thread open for a few days if it doesn't change back then close the thread by Marking it solved .
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your help not only getting my account fixed up, but also cleaning up and fixing any errors on my computer! I've noticed an improvement in speed as well, many thanks! I will let you know if I have any more problems.
welcome :)
