    In Home Premium they are suppose to since those features are included.

    It may be some issue with upgrading. You might consider doing a clean install instead.

    In that case, you can use the steps in the tutorial below instead. It includes how to download a Windows 7 ISO to use for this. :)

    Peaches and Cream......


    I fixed the problem while searching the web All Day for a fix!

    Came across a web site with suggestions and one was to create a New Administrator account!!

    Talk about lucky.... The New account with Win 7 Home Premium works like a charm....


    My next question is I should be able to delete the old Administrator account without any problems??


    Thanks for All your Help...

    Great news.

    Yes, you should be able to delete the old account while logged in to your new one.

    Be sure to copy over any files (ex: music, documents, etc..) you may want from the old account to the new one before you delete it though.
