No Accounts Appear in Control Panel > User Accounts

[Guest]

i think i accidentally deleted the administrator account Now I cannot
install any programs.

A check of the Control Panel under "User Accounts" indicates there are no
users.

When i typed in "control userpasswords2" in the "Run", i received a message
as follows:

"You must be a member of the Administrators Group on this computer to open
User Accounts. You are logged on as [computername]\user, and this account is
not a member of the Administrators Group.

To continue, type the user name and password of an administrator on this
computer....."

To change the password without opening the User Account, press CTRL-Alt-Del
and click "Change Password" ==> note when i press these keys, i only see the
task manager screen....

Please help!!!!

thank you

Any suggestions?

See replies to your other disconnected post in another newsgroup. Learn

A point not made is that N multiposted copies will consume N times the
space for separate copies of the same post. Crossposted messages have
just *one* copy on the server and the groups simply have pointers back
to that same single copy. Multiposting wastes disk space on the server.
Yes, your post is small but remember that you consume N times the space
on one server and then do so on all the newsgroups servers worldwide.

Crossposting helps readers in one group see the replies from those in
another RELATED newsgroup to which you copied your post. That way, they
don't waste their time duplicating similar replies that already exist.
