Default Admin Account

Is there a default admin account?
If so, what is the password?
Can I login as "Admin"? How?

Unless you, or someone else with access to your computer, set it, it's
still blank. There is no default.

After you set a password on the built-in Administrator account, it'll
become available on the Welcome Screen.

Thanks, but where do I set the Admin Password?

Right-click on the Administrator in the right-hand pane, Set Password.
Then Right-click it again, select Properties, and remove the check mark
from "Account is Disabled."
