Default Admin Account

[Ron]

Is there a default admin account?
If so, what is the password?
Can I login as "Admin"? How?

 

[Bruce Chambers]

Is there a default admin account?

Yes, certainly.

If so, what is the password?

Unless you, or someone else with access to your computer, set it, it's
still blank. There is no default.

Can I login as "Admin"? How?

After you set a password on the built-in Administrator account, it'll
become available on the Welcome Screen.

Thanks, but where do I set the Admin Password?

Right-Click My Computer> Manage > Local Users and Groups > Users.
Right-click on the Administrator in the right-hand pane, Set Password.
Then Right-click it again, select Properties, and remove the check mark
from "Account is Disabled."
