Hello All, What began as a simple Dashboard / Widgets question has rapidly deteriorated into a full blow catastrophe that I have 1) never heard of, 2) never encountered before (otherwise I could solve it myself) and 3) see no workable or work-around solution to.
My daughter, in an attempt to bypass parental controls, somehow was able to remove or change my account from ADMINISTRATOR to STANDARD and I can not get in to make ANY changes except to change the password which it will accept until I try and make a change and then it tells me that I am not an administrator. When I type in the correct password, I know its the correct password because I know the answer to the clue, it says that only an administrator can get in. I checked the Accounts in SP and I am a Standard Account with no privileges. I can not even reload the OS to start over because it keeps asking for the same password, or whichever password I change it to and then tells me I am NOT an Administrator. I have tried starting in safe mode but I am still unable to make any changes. Frustration levels are rising!
