Login as Administrator ONCE

[D-systems]

Is it possible to log in as an administrator once?

I want to login after I have done some innstallations manually.

So winnt.sif doesn't work for me with autologin xxx times.

Is there another way?

You want to do this manually, NOT unattended? Easy. When Windows has booted and your seeing the welcome-screen, press twice CTRL+ALT+DEL and a screen where you can login as administrator appears.

Sometimes this gets tricky. If you only have one user, when logging out, it logs you back in. If you do windows key+L then try the three finger salute twice, it doesn't work (bug?). The only way I can do this is log into a second user, then log off, then do the three finger salute twice.

That only happens with the welcome screen, if you have it use the ole 2000 login, then you shouldn't have a problem.
