Klownicle Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 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.

Klownicle Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 or even quicker on the desktop win+x and press command with administrator 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
