OK, I am currently running XP Pro, and at some point
after I created my main account, the Administrator
account stopped appearing at the welcome screen. When I
go into Control Panel -> User Accounts on my main
account, the Administrator account is not even listed. I
turned the welcome screen off and it let me
enter "Administrator" followed by the password at the
prompt. I go into Control Panel -> Computer Management -
does NOT say it's disabled). I tried logging in as the
Administrator via the standard logon prompt, and it lets
me logon just fine. I even tried going into Control
Panel -> User Accounts as Administrator and it appears
there but when I logoff it still won't appear at the
welcome screen. Is there any way to make it reappear? I
know it's an odd request, but my main account at one
point got hit with all kinds of problems and I just
wanted an easy access to the built-in Administrator
account just in case. Thanks! - Rick B.
