Default no advanced tab in administrator


I am established as the Computer administrator in my User
Accounts, but I don't seem to have any advanced options
available other than the basic change name, picture, and
password. Am I missing something here?
Thanks for any info.

Default Re: no advanced tab in administrator

I want to make sure i'm logging in with full administrator
privelages. Sometimes, I have to log out and re-login to
make changes in programs (ie Norton Systemworks 2004). It
would say that I'm not logged in as Admin, but it is the
only account I have. Is this crazy?

If you're running XP Pro, click Start, Run and enter LUSRMGR.MSC This will give you the full Local Users and Groups Manager.

For XP Home, click Start, Run and enter CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2 This is where you'll find the Advanced tab that you're looking for, but you will not have the full functionality that's available in LUSRMGR.MSC.
