Disable Administrator account

S

Steven Wong

Hi,

I was trying to disable the Built-in administrator and got the following
error :

- The following error occurred while attempting to save properties for user
Administrator:
Cannot perform this operation on built-in accounts

and I also got the following error when removing the Administrators group
from Administrator.

- One or more errors occurred while recording group membership changes for
user Administrator.

Any one can help ?
Thanks

Steven

Read the W2K documentation on default users and groups, you can't lockout or
disable that account. At least, not without some rather serious
consequences. You can rename it and assign it a secure password, not to
mention auditing.
