Go to Search Charm >

 

Type "cmd".

 

Right Click "command" and click "Run as Administrator" under the Bottom Menu.

 

Type in the Black Window that Appears "net user administrator /active:yes" and Press Enter.  You should see "The Command Completed Sucessfully".

 

Happy Hunting.

Don't we love Windows 8, Lol.

 

Also, if you'd like to change the administrator password in said command prompt window, type "net user administrator <password>". Where <password> is the password you'd like to use, otherwise its an empty password by default.
