Hello,
Anyone know how to revive the Admin account or grant someone administrator privlages on a 2k/xp (I think it was XP) box?
Here is how it was explained to me: Guy goes to install something on a computer, gets denied, goes to login with the Admin username and password, windows reposts with acount does not exist. He logs in as the person that was using the computer checks the user information and yep, no admin account and that account doesn't seem to have admin privlages.
He then boots using the linix based password changer, it also doesn't list an admin account.
The computer is in a Work group (boy is there a funny story about that).
Any suggestions let me know. I'll definetly be searching. Oh yeah reinstalling is the last option
