| | Re: How to logon to my system administrative Newbie When you use the net user command, make sure you are using an elevated command prompt. Go to Start / All Programs / Accessories. Right click 'Command Prompt' and select the 'Run as administrator' option. In the command prompt window, type the following command: net user administrator /active:yes Press Enter. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "newbie" <newbie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:8091BA04-3746-4745-AECB-47BD23546609@xxxxxx Quote: > Dear All, > I am new to windows vista.
