Hi. I´m trying to fix my windows vista which won´t start after an update (urgghh). Anyway, I´m trying to fix it from the command prompt. However, I am denied access when I want to change a certain file.

From what I udnerstand, this is because I don´t have administrator access.

My question is How can I change into administrator account in the command prompt alone? I know this can be done if I´m in windows (but the problem is I can´t get there).

Thanks a lot

p.s. I got to the comman prompt in the first place by using the vista repair disc which does not require me to go to windows.

right click on command prompt

click on run as an administrator

it will say windows needs your permission

click continue and you should be all set
