Administrator Logon

John Boshra

Hello, I'm a new Vista user,
I have the Vista Ultimate, I'm the one who installed it, but I can't logon
as an administrator, I don't know where is the applet to logon from,
previously in the windows XP, I was just hitting ALT+CTRL+Delete in the
logon window to get the administrator Account, but I tried it in vista,
nothing happened...
Can any one help me, how can I get the administrator account???
N.B, my current account is in the administrators group, but so many folders,
I can't access, such as the "Program Data\Application Data"...

Vista's built-in Administrator account is disabled by default, and
normally accessible only if no other administrative account is
available. You can enable the account via the Computer Management
Console (Right-click Computer > Manage > Local Users and Groups), if you
like.

N.B, my current account is in the administrators group, but so many
folders, I can't access, such as the "Program Data\Application Data"...


"Can't access..." in what specific manner? I've no problem reading the
contents of the Program Data folder (there is no "Application Data"
subfolder on my system) using a normal administrative account.
