Administrator On Welcome Screen

Can anybody kindly repost the way to get Administrator on the Welcome Screen
for Vista x86?

Regards and thanks.

I believe this will work:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserLis t

If SpecialAccounts doesn't exits create it (New, Key). Then create the
UserList key, (New, Key). Select UserList on the left pane and right click
in the right pane and select New | "String Value"
Value Name: Administrator
Value Data: 1

Is there any way to get into the Administrator a/c without setting registry
keys?.
I tried Ctr-Alt-Del on the login page, but it did not help.

I don't know if this worked in beta 2, but in later builds simply enabling
the administrator account from local users and groups in computer management
causes the administrator account to appear on the welcome screen.

are you crazy? I don't find any valid reason to use the administrator with
Vista.

Safe Mode works really well
