User Accounts

Guest

Hello to all from Germany,
I have 3 users on my computer of which I used to be the Administrator. (I
have just learned that one should not use Admin accounts on a daily basis).
In order to download some programs in one of the Limited User Accounts I
switched this account to Admin Account and mine to a Limited. This said and
done I tried to go about the tasks and now get "Internet Explorer Script
Error" whenever I try to access any help pages and when I try to access "User
Accounts". I therefore cannot switch back or create another Admin Account.
The only account that doesn´t get these error messages is my account which
now is ONLY a Limited Account. I am doomed!!! Help!!!!!!!!

I use my admin account on a daily basis and have never had a problem, so I
am not sure why you would not want to do that.

you should be able to create a new account that has full administrative
rights.

Thanks for your reply. I know I should be able to create another Admin
Account but easier said than done when everytime I try (from the only Admin
Acct) to access "control panel","user accounts" I get "script error" and no
matter wether I click yes or no it wont let me access the User Accounts
section. Is there a way to create another Admin Acct any other way?
Thanks much for any reply!!!

Boot to Safemode.
This should boot you to an administrator account.

When I boot to safemode it boots me to an administator account and as soon as
I try to access the control panel to establish another admin account I get a
script error that I cannot erase.
I appreciate all of your input.
