    Locked out!

    I have hidden my all accounts in Vista with administrator privileges through the user list in the registry so only the standard account is available on the log in screen.

    I cannot make changes to the registry through the standard account so am locked out. Even in safe mode this is the case.

    How can I reverse this to get back into the admin account?

    Thanks

    You may be able to acess system restore with this administrator. If you can make a system restore to the point before you touched the registry.
