Hi VistaKing Sorry not sure what you mean by this "Login to the Built-in Administrator account?" I must be missing something there. (this is what I did)
I opposite clicked on computer and opened up the computer management box & clicked on Groups and then double clicked on Aministrators then added Robert, rebooted and tried to use my Auslogics prog and again got the message that I need to be an administrator to use it, so I went through the process again, my name was added underneath Administrators so I clicked & highlighted it and then clicked Ok, and access was denied, thanks for your patience
You have a user account by the name of Administrator ? Correct ? That is the built-in Administrator account that is hidden by default. You would have to turn it on by activating it in an a Elevated command prompt .
Lets see something
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>_
Paste the highlighted text below
REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList" /s > %userprofile%\Desktop\UserAccounts.txt
TipRight click inside the Command Prompt and select Paste
Upload the UserAccounts.txt file . It should be on your desktop
Hi again VistaKing, I didn't realise that I had to oposite click on the CMD icon, I did so this time, which opened up the menu with "Run as Administrator" at the menu top, which I clicked on & that opened the Black win\Sys32\ cmd.exe box, in which I pasted your highlighted text, there was no User Access Control window or Yes button, after this I did find a txt file on the Desktop appended below.
Sorry I could not find a way to append the file so I highlighted it and pasted it/ Regards Robert.
