Built in Administrator login

[Guest]

I'm running XP Pro and I recently added user accounts to my pc - the next
time I booted up, the original Admin account no longer appears. Now I can't
access one folder that I made private while on as the Admin. How can I bring
the login up or get access to the folder?

[[On a Windows XP Professional-based computer that is a member of a
workgroup, you have the option of using the friendly logon interface as
opposed to the classic Windows logon interface. If you add a second user
that has administrative privileges, the built-in Administrator account does
not appear during the friendly logon method.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem so that you can access the original Administrator
account:
1. Press the CTRL+ALT+DELETE key combination twice during the friendly logon
interface to use the conventional Windows 2000 logon interface.
2. Restart the computer in Safe mode, or log on remotely by using Remote
Desktop and the Autologon feature of the Remote Desktop Client. ]]
