| Home Premium X64, not impressed with W7 RC yet... | Re: "Windows Explorer has stopped working", can't right click, no taskbar - HELP! You could always add an Administrator cmd prompt to the login screen. Reboot into safe mode with command prompt Login to a user account with admin rights Open any command prompt and type the following in cd c:\windows\system32 copy magnify.exe magnifybackup.exe takeown /f magnify.exe cacls magnify.exe /G username:F copy cmd.exe magnify.exe Line by line this is what it does: 1. change directory to the system32 folder 2. make a backup of magnify.exe 3. take ownership of magnify.exe 4. give full rights to username (you'll type your username here) 5. copy cmd.exe and rename magnify.exe What this will do is when you boot your computer, if you click the ease of access button in the bottom left corner (or hit win U) it'll bring up the EOA prompt. Check the magnify option and click ok or apply. Bam, admin level command prompt. |
