Default canīt change from my "guest-"account to my "administrator-acconut"

Hello!

I tried to make a guest-account on my computer and when I
restarted it a few minutes later my administrator account
was gone.... Even though I try to log out from the guest
account I cant get back to my "real account", with
administrator rights.

Do any of u( pleeeeease ) have any idea about how to fix
this?

Thanx.... //Lisa ))

Hi Lisa,

Logoff, hit ctrl+alt+delete twice and you can type in the admin account, it
is hidden by default once other accounts have been created.

>Hi Lisa,
I had the same problem. Start your computer in safe mode
and create another account. Give this one the
administartor rights, then your on your way
