Wrong Username Is STUCK On Admin

Mar 23, 2008

My wife tried to change the Username on the computer i put together for her. The only problem is that she changed the name somehow but it didn't change it in the OS. That is, when i go in through another user account it says the ORIGINAL name under users, NOT the name she made. Now the PROBLEM is that when the OS boots up it has her NEW name (that somehow didn't take), written in for the Admin account but the PASSWORD for the ORIGINAL account is the SAME (i.e. the password hint is the same as what i had made it originally).

Now the problem is that i can't change the USERNAME and there IS NO password for the name she made, cause it didn't take halfway through the process she said. The question is, how do i change the Username to the original name. that is, to the ACTUAL user name that is listed under users (the name she made is NOT listed under users).

Disabled Admin And Stuck, Cannot Reinstall

Mar 23, 2008

I accidentally disabled the Admin check box and now with my ID as being a Standard User I cannot even install or remove any old items on my install. This is a terrible waste of time for many people. XP was never like this... I was only messing around with testing what one button does... I have tried everything from turning off UAC, registry fix... but all said: "ACCESS DENIED"... what to do now??? I cannot undo nor reinstall everything again.

What's Wrong With ?

Nov 10, 2009

I have and found this forum while I was trying to figure out how to switch from vista to xp. I have found a few thread on the subject, pretty much implying that there was no possible way (my computer has been bought last year in another country so my supplier cannot be reached easily).
Many of the answers were asking: why switch from vista to xp?
Well, personally, I am not a great geek, but I am amazed how much complications with softwares seem to result from vista. And the greatest of all, for me, is the incapacity to edit my movies (which was the main purpose of my purchase). According to what I experienced and read on other forums, Vista does not recongnize most of the camcorders (with Premiere or Movie maker) and I have been unable to install avid either... anyone has a solution for me? cheers!

I have Vista on my laptop. I need to connect to a wireless network which has WEP encryption with a 6 character pass phrase. Every time I attempt to connect Vista tells me that the pass phrase must be 5 or 13 characters long. The other users all have XP machines and are connected and working. There is no way to get the pass phrase changed.

Username/password After McAfee Uninstalled

Oct 24, 2009

Windows Mail worked correctly for 1 year. I did not have the "password won't

save" problem at all.

McAfee Security Center was uninstalled and debris removal was performed

because I dislike McAfee (which came installed on the the computer.)

Avast Pro was installed because I like it.

Now, I have the Windows Mail "password won't save" problem. When I look at

the Account Properties, there's nothing in the password box. When I enter

the password and click Remember Password, check email, I get the popup

requesting username password. If I enter the info there, mail is received

and can be sent. Next time, it asks for username/pw again.

I have deleted the account, closed Windows Mail, recreated the account -

same problem.

Inspiron And Username Folders Empty

Aug 5, 2009

I just discovered that my Username and Inspiron Folders are empty, with a blank folder picture as icon. When I click on either one of them I get the "Open with" scenario. Yet by right-clicking I am able to access "Properties". According to it the folders were modified on July 5 and 6 respectively and not by me, of course. Is there a way to correct this and, if so, how? Have no idea what could have caused it and can live with it, if necessary. Nothing else is effected.

Vista Does Not Recognize The Username And Password

Jul 7, 2008

I have registered on this website and have not been able to log onto the site for which I've registered. I can access the site but when I attempt to use my username and password Windows Vista does not recognize the username and password I entered. I've reset the password and this program (Windows Vista) does not allow it to work for some reason. I can access the site and log on from any other computer but not my own computer. I have deleted the browsing history in an attempt to remove any stored info on the pc but that doesn't seem to work either.
