Hi. I accidently removed myself as an administrator and it says that Im a standard user. Im the only user on this computer and I cant do anything without being an administrator.
Is there any way of restoring it back or readding it back? |

Vista's real administrator account is hidden.
How to enable it: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vis...-windows-vista/ After creating new account with admin rights, make sure to hide real one back, so you won't mess it up. |
