Lets try this again, I guess I wasn't clear enough last time, and see it is easy to get those errors you got:
In order:
- Open cmd and copy below command and paste in cmd (it will copy to clipboard automatically)
- CTRL+V to your next replyCode:echo %username% |clip
- switch back to cmd, copy below command and paste in cmd:
- CTRL+V to your next replyCode:net localgroup administrators |clip
For example mine would look like:
gkhna
Alias name administrators
Comment Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to the computer/domain
Members
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Administrator
gkhna
The command completed successfully.
Disabling the server under services.msc did the trick. All is well. Thanks all and thanks Callender. Chuck
As long as OP is happy, I am too. However, I believe there is some underlying problem that isn't addressed (most likely some permission issue in registry?) and shutting down server only covered it.
