New PC setup but administrator account disappeared ?

[steveblue]

Hi all,

My father in law has just got himself a new PC and setup up user accounts for himself and his wife. while doing this he transfered his documents and files to the new pc. Now he did all this while in the administrator account, so the documents and files where transfered into the administrators home folder, but he had to restart the PC and now cannot log back into the administrator account as the startup login only shows his or his wifes accounts???

so the question is how do you go about loging back into the administrator account, or how would he go about moving the docs and files from the administrator folder to his??

thank you

Steve

Log in as the first account he created (should be an admin account as well), and re-enable the administrator account. It is disabled by default once setup is done.
