Now I’m just confused. :-\ I can log in as “Administrator” in safe mode, but I can’t change my administrator status from my other account to “Administrator”. In other words, I’m logged in as “Computer administrator” on OTHER (actual name being anonymous for security reasons) account, but I can’t actually see my “Administrator” account unless I’m in safe mode. Does it matter that I log in specifically to “Administrator”? I think something is really f-ed on my PC b/c all my windows settings, wallpaper, start program links (although they still work, they’re reduced from what they were a few days ago), and some programs were acting like it was the first time I started them up (as in giving hints and tips, or in some cases even starting the wizard that some apps start after installation), but still present thru the hdd. Ummm if that’s confusing let me know, i’ll try to clear up my explanation below. I’m not sure if did this, or the Malware crap. ???
I hope this helps clear up what I was trying to explain above…this is my current situation:

  1. I’m logged in as my OTHER account, but it’s labeled as “Computer Administrator” in the CPanel\User Accounts. There is only another account available called “Guest”.

  2. In SAFE MODE, I see those 2 accounts AND an “Administrator” account, but it won’t let me switch the “Computer Administrator” status from OTHER account to the “Administrator” account.
    So what’s goin on? Am I being blocked, or did I just mess somethin up and need to fix it? Please help I’ve never been more confused in my life, lol.
    Thanks again for quick responses! :slight_smile:
