Hello!

Does anyone know how to unlock a user account on XP HOME?

Unfortunately an account is now disabled. In W2K or XP Prof it's easy to
unlock it. But in the XP Home i can't find a point where to do this.

The system starts with logon mask. But when i try to logon with this
user account i will be promted to the logon screen once again.

The original Admin account and 2 other accounts with admin rights work
fine.

Many thanks!!!!!

Since just this one account doesn't work, log in as Administrator and
create a new profile for the sick account. Copy the original account's
files to the new account. Then delete the bad account.
