Default "Administrator" log-in on Welcome screen disappeared


Noticed loss of Administrator log-in name 2 days ago, but hadn't done
anything different on computer. Along with Administrator went all
Administrator Document files, which is troublesome. ideas

At the welcome screen - all users logged off - press CTRL+ALT+DEL twice in a
row - log in with the classic logon as administrator and whatever password
you assigned.

· Q: How to display the administrator account on the welcome screen in
Windows XP?
· A: Open this key:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList"
and create a new DWORD value entitled Administrator, give it a value of
1.
