| | Unable to login to windows vista after upgrade I have upgraded from win xp pro to win vista rc1. I onlz used Administrator account in the windows xp so i dont have any other accounts active. After upgrade when i try to login to my administrator account(i dont use password) it says that account has been disabled. Is there any way that i can access my files. I have backups made but I am really dissapointed in the way vista locked up my files. |

| | RE: Unable to login to windows vista after upgrade And for the record...I cannot login to it from safe mode either. If i click on Administrator icon it gives me the disabled message, and if I enter Administrator in the other user option it gives me the same thing. |

| | RE: Unable to login to windows vista after upgrade Vista raped me too. Not only did it disable the Administrator account, which I was actively using, and had a password; but it will not let me login using the other account on the system as it had a blank password. I have found that if you boot with the CD to repair mode you can access a DOS prompt and run regedit. I founfd some other references to a reg edit that will enable the administrator account, but have had no success thus far. Not happy! "Taj" wrote: > I have upgraded from win xp pro to win vista rc1.
