hello friends, Is there a way to merge my profile into the admin? I want to use the secret admin profile as my own like I do with XP. I then want to delete my profile(somehow) and only use the admin as my own. However, I don't want to lose all the parameters created under my profile. Does this make sense? thanks a whole gigabite Carmine

I don't know if it's possible under Vista but if it was me I'd leave it alone and just continue using the account you have set up, at least that way if anything goes wrong with your current account you can create another one from the built in admin account.

If you do what you are asking and something screws that account up I think you'll be in a mess ;)

thanks Joan,
I think you're right. I always try to get rid of any software I think I'll never use.

Cheers

Agreed. Using the Built in Admin is generally frowned upon. Unless you need to do something that you can't do in your admin account, it is never needed. I have never even needed it myself, and I thought I would...
