This is possible the lamest question to ask, so late in the OS game, but I can't seem to find anything on it anywhere (probably just don't know how to google for it!). I run Windows 7, and of course have the normal Administrator account that one creates when installing. I wan't to create a...

I am sick of being restricted to some stupid actions such as as simple as deleting folders.
sometimes some folders will not be deleted and it says i need administrative privileges to do so, but those folders are not in use or they dont have any executables running from inside or used by one or...

Hello,
Firstly, I am fairly technologically apt, but am certainly worlds away from being well versed in IT.
I run Vista Ultimate on a Dell laptop, and I have been unable to edit or remove any of the multiple user accounts I no longer need. I will also mention that the laptop has 2 drives, C...
Hi there.
I would like to have my current user as a real administrator and not just be in the administrator group.
I know that command: net user administrator /active:yes
but it adds a new user at the log on screen. I would like to have the same privileges of the real admin but with my...

When I attempt to change my user account picture, nothing works. I click on pictures that I want to change to, the picture highlights, but the picture won't change. It's as if I am not double clicking on the picture at all. Any thoughts?
I've had a couple of problems with my Windows services and I was working my way fixing them and I got most of them to work except for the "Windows Time" service. I tried to restore the default registry keys/values for this service but I kept getting the "Access Denied" error when trying to start...
What is this horrendous crap?

I've added a password to my user account (the only account) and I still cannot disable this crap.
Can it be found in the registry etc?
I want this...

I have been testing Windows 7 on a work laptop within our company domain. I have run into something that seems to be a regression in productivity.
For the Windows XP logon screen, the user is prompted with a drop-down listbox for selection of the Domain or Local PC.
For Windows 7/Vista, the...
To test out another problem I was facing, I created a new user account. Now I have no use for that account, so I deleted it, but just to be on the safe side I chose to keep all files from the account. So, Windows created a folder on my desktop with the old account's name, and in it were the...

Howdy, forum! I officially love Windows 7! Its been working very nicely, with one minor (and really, it *is* minor) complaint. Every time I "wake up" my computer after the screen saver has been on, I actually have to log back in! I have looked at the screen saver options and unchecked the...
Hi, Just installed the RC on my HP laptop a few days ago. I wanted to access my documents folder on my Vista partition, so I clicked through to "Continue to access this folder." Didn't think anything of it. Then, when I went to log back into Vista, I couldn't access my actual user profile. Every...

Hello,
I upgraded from Vista, from which I couldn't see the user accounts, but the users were working well... I couldn't find any fix for this issue, so I let it there. While upgrading, I was hoping this issue would be resolved, but not, user list is still empty, and now all users are marked...
