Windows 10 Built-in Administrator account?

Well, that's a drag! So a domain administrator cannot use native apps?
I also don't understand why the OS is reporting the user as "Built-in administrator" as that is not the case.

I upgraded a Lenovo T530 from Windows 7 to Windows 10. It is joined to our domain and I am logged in as domain\administrator. Most everything works except many (all?) of the native Windows apps, Edge and calendar for example. When I try to open the app I see this:

Factory set password for Windows Vista built-in administrator account?

I am attempting access the Vista built-in administrator account, which normally is not passworded unless the user does so. Mine, however, has a password that was set 11/20/2010 at 9:57:24 PM.
Was this p/w set by Toshiba? I assume so, as it was purchased directly from Toshiba. If so, any idea what that p/w would be? I need to use this account to recover my own admin account due to this error: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

No. But some programs like the Google Updater (if you added the Google Toolbar, Chrome or Google Earth) have been known to cause this problem.

Enabling Windows Server 2008 R2 Built-In Administrator Account

The properties box for my Windows Server 2008 R2 built-in administrator program says the account is disabled. Even the primary user account has virtually no priveliges. How can I, with a mere primary user account available at logon, enable
the built-in administrator account, or otherwise grant my primary user account administrator priveliges? Windows Server 2008 R2 denies my primary user account access/permission for nearly all changes to accounts, programs and OS features.

In some of the organisations, default admin accounts on member servers are purposefully locked/disabled through group policy for security reasons.
If you know the password for locked out/disabled admin account then there is a possibility of unlocking/re-enabling the account without using any third party tools.
To do that,
Restart the server
Press F8 and select Safe Mode Without
Networking
Log on to the server with locked out/disabled admin account with its password.
If you could successfully log on to the server then you will have option to unlock and enable the built-in admin account !

After enabling the Built-in Administrator account, it is not shown on Welcome screen

Hello,
I have Windows 7 Starter SP1.
I have previously successfully enabled and then logged on, to the built-in administrator account, and then when I had finished using it, disabled it again.
Unfortunately today, I found that when I enabled the built-in administrator account, it no longer appears on the Welcome screen.
I went through the process of enabling it by doing:
Start/Search "CMD"/right-click CMD/Run as administrator.
net user administrator active:yes
It confirms: "The command completed successfully."
However, when I log off and log back on (or do shut down and restart), the Welcome screen does not display any option for the Built-in Administrator account.
I have also tried doing the above in Safe mode, and also using Command Prompt from a Rescue disk.
As background information:
The reason why I wanted to access this account today, was because I attempted to defrag a partition listed as "(1% fragmented)" and after Defrag appeared to complete while at "Pass 2", the partition is still shown as 1% fragmented.
I would appreciate advice how to resolve the issue with the built-in administrator account.

Hello Niki Han,
Thank you for your response. I have not yet had an opportunity to look into what you have written but wish to thank you for that information.
Meanwhile, I would like to discuss the possible cause for this issue. I know the date when I last successfully accessed the built-in Administrator account, which was April 18, 2012.
Since I was last able to use that account on April 18, 2012, I have made no changes to the system other than install all Important Microsoft Updates through Windows Update.
A full scan with Windows Defender finds no threats.
A full scan with Avast finds no threats.
I beleive Microsoft may wish to ensure that this issue has not been caused by any of the following 30 updates. If it has been caused by one of these updates, then Microsoft should consider issuing a further update to correct this.

"Windows Server 2012 domain controllers have a default for the security setting named "Allow cryptography algorithms compatible with Windows NT 4.0" that prevents weaker cryptography algorithms when establishing security channel sessions."
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Sushant,
>>Not Able to Promote DC to server even i am using built in Administrator Account.
I have seen your thread "Verification of prerequisites for Domain Controller promotion failed" and provided a reply.

In the reply, it provides a step-to-step guidance for setting up a Windows Server 2012 Domain Controller. Have we followed it to promote the server?

Unable to enroll fingerprints for the Win7 built-in Administrator account

In Windows 7 I tried to enroll fingerprints for the built-in Administrator account, but doing so failed every time with the error message The enrollment could not be completed.
I could not find a solution online and the Validity software was working just fine, as there were no issues with other users on the same system. As a work-around, I created another account with administrator privileges and enrolling the fingerprints worked just fine. My guess is that the permissions for the built-in Administrator account are different from any administrator account you can create yourself. What I noticed is that any self created account is part of the Users group, and that the built-in Administrator account is not part of this group. I'm not sure, but maybe this is the cause of the problem.
Anyway, I thought I would share my experience here, in case anyone else encounters the same problem.

same issue in build 10049.
It would help to be more specific in the symptom description. E.g. using Narrator may help. (Win-Enter). Does it say what you are "seeing" (or should be seeing)?
FWIW I think it is relatively easy to reproduce symptoms which are related to this thread's description using Narrator (Start Screen without Search bar, Search bar without Taskbar, or Search bar with Taskbar but without Start Menu
when the only time that the Search bar should appear is when the Start Menu is there, for example) so that could also help specify what your real symptom is. BTW there are horrendous delays when using Narrator.

Built-in administrator account

Dear All,
I was searching for the best way to secure the Built-in Administrator account on Active Directory and found the below two options suggested from Mircosoft. I would appreciate your help in recommending the best option:
1. rename account

2. disable its access

Hi,
I would say renaming the account and generate a strong password would be a good choice.

IE 11, built-in Administrator account, window.open method, JA KB 2909974 exists.. not EN-US ?

As per title....
The JA KB (when translated) states,
If you use the built-in Administrator in Internet Explorer 11, when you open a new window named, such as window.open method, window name is not recognized.
Therefore, the following phenomenon will occur.
If you specify in the window.open method of the window named, rather than a window that is already open, URL is displayed in a new tab or new window
If you specify in the target attribute of the link or form window named, not the window that is already open, URL is displayed in a new tab or new window
What's Microsoft's comments on tracking to a resolution of this ?

MDT 2012 - Litetouch deploy windows 8 with different administrator account

I have created and captured a custom image of Windows 8 using MDT2012 update 1 and Windows ADK (without SCCM). In the image, I have set an account called DeployUser, with password XXX, adding it to the Administrators group, and I have disabled the User
Account Control.
I did this because the Administrator account is renamed from GPO and the password is changed every 30 days (for security reasons, the password is not disclosed to any IT support).
Next, I created a TS to deploy this image, adding the installation of some software.
In the Unattend.xml, I also added DeployUser to perform the autologon.
After the first logon with DeployUser, the TS stops and does not return any error message.
If I manually run C: \ ProgramData \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Start Menu \ Programs \ Start-up \ LiteTouch.lnk nothing happens, however, if I run it with "Run as Administrator", the TS continues normally.
Somebody who knows a solution for this?

I believe MDT LiteTouch deployments only recognize the Administrator account name for processing task sequences.
Are you joining the domain during an MDT Litetouch deployment? If so, you may want to delay joining to a domain or GPO processing. Take a look at these recommendations:
Domain Policies that break MDT 2010
It may also be possible to disable GPO processing until the end of the taks sequence via a reghack or disabling a service. Take a look at this:
How to Disable/Enable Group Policy
BTW, the task sequence engine in ConfigMgr prevents GPO processing during an OSD.

Failure of ACL setting for CIFS share resource on Windows client logined with administrator account

Hi,
We accounter a puzzle of ACL setting for a CIFS share resource. In our application, we use the
administrator account to login a Windows 7 OS which is used as the CIFS client. We can access the share resource by "\\server_ip" on this CIFS client, but we can't add
a new ACE to the ACL of a CIFS share resource provided by a CIFS server.
Why dose this hanppen? Note that the CIFS server maybe a Windows OS or a self-developed CIFS server.
The operation details as followed:
1.Access the share resource by "\\server_ip", login the CIFS server by a valid account on the CIFS server.
2.On the Windows client, select the "Security" panel in the mouse-right-button properties dialog of a cifs share resource.
3.To add a new ACE for someone eg. user0, we input "user0" in the "Select Users ans Groups" dialog popped up.
4.Click OK, but the Windows client will not get the user information for user0 from the CIFS server.
WHY?
5.By wireshare network trace, we find the Windows client didn't send any SAMR requests to the CIFS server.
6.Restart the Windows client OS and login again with another account except administrator, carry out the above operations. We find that the Windows client can get the user information, opposite with the step 4 above.
WHY?
7.By wireshare network trace, we find that the Windows client has sent SAMR requests to the CIFS server to get user informations. But that is different from step 5, WHY?
If the Windows client OS is login with administrator account, is there any configuration on Windows client to decide whether request user information on CIFS server when setting ACL for CIFS share resource?
Expect your help.Thanks.
Best wishes.

Msiexec /qn fails when its not run using the built-in local administrator account

Hello all,
I am working on a project where I am trying to automate the deployment of VMs through a self-service portal.
Among other tasks such as clone VM, sysprep it, assign an IP, create AD computer object, join VM to domain and so on..., i need to install a few applications using msiexec, which is driving me crazy...
For this purpose, I am using a local user account part of the administrators group.
Please note, UAC is disabled on all the OS.
Basically, the msi installation works as expected on Windows 7 machines, however on Windows 8/2012, it fails due to lack of permissions. The curious thing is that if I use the built-in\administrator account instead for the deployment on those systems, the
application is installed correctly.
I have tested some things such as: DisableMSI (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368304%28v=vs.85%29.aspx), but although it progresses a bit further, it keeps failing.
Does anyone know what I can do to allow an user part of the administrators local group to be able to install using msiexec /qn?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Does it work if you use the account in local admin, and run the commands prompt as administrator to install the msi file? Please know that Only the built in administrator account has admin privilege by default. On other admin accounts you need
to run with elevated privilege (ie runas).
I would like to know if you use SCCM to perform your deployment with task sequence.
As I known, even if you disable UAC, the following policy is still enabled to detect application installation.
Computer configuration\Windows settings\Security Settings\Local
Policies\Security Options -> User Account Control: Detect application installations and prompt for elevation policy
Please disable this policy to see if your issue can be fixed.

Old domain was removed and Unable to login as domain administrator account in windows 7 laptop

I have a problem with a laptop which is in old domain, due to some issue I need to uninstall some of the programs on that machine for
that it is asking administrator password, so when I was entering old domain’s administrator account password it is not logging in, and there is no other local administrator account configured on that machine, how to log in into that machine and join that to
the new domain.
I am trying to log in as <domain-name>\administrator

Hi,
Logon to a domain with domain account is an interactive process, which needs cooperation of both DC and DNS. Since the old domain is delete, then, log in as <domain-name>\administrator to the old domain will failed.
Open CMD, type “net user”, and press Enter to display user account of this computer. Check to see if any account which has administrator permission you can remember.
Besides, type “net user administrator”, if the Account Active is YES, try to use this built-in administrator account to logon:
Press Alt + Ctrl + Delete, select Switch User -> Other User, type <computer name>\administrator. (there may be no password if you haven’t set this)
If there is no administrator permission account which you can use to logon, reinstall the system should be needed.

SCCM 2012 R2 CU3 - Drivers Not Installing, Local Administrator Account Disabled

After PXE OSD for a Thick Image of Win 7 x64 Ent completes, several Task Sequence steps are not complete. Namely, 3 device drivers are missing (NIC, SM Bus and some other chipset driver), the built-in Administrator Account is disabled and it's not Domain
joined.
I have already re-created the thick WIM twice. It was built in a VMware VM then captured with SCCM Capture Media. The NIC is a Realtek and I have downloaded the most recent version of the drivers from HP's site and added them to a driver package which is
deployed. I even added several older drivers to my Boot Image and created to 2 steps to add drivers in the Task Sequence - one automatically installs the best drivers, the other installs a package with 7 NIC drivers. When I get the error during PXE OSD, I
press F8 and the machine has an IP address and the driver for the NIC appears to be correct. Upon rebooting, Windows completes setup but the Administrator Account is not enabled and the NIC driver is missing, etc.
Here is the portion of the log where errors begin to show up (from D:\SMSTSLog). Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!

Thank you for the reply, you're right the problem is with an image being applied, but not the OS image.
The issue is that for some reason, there were 2 images captured and SCCM automatically created a step for both. Image 2-2 is the valid Windows image, but image 1-1 clearly has some issues. I disabled the that step in the Task Sequence and it installed drivers
and completed the rest of the Task Sequence!

Disable built in adminstrator account

help

Hi alboy44,
Yes, like Ed said, Windows 7 the built-in Administrator's account is disabled by default.
About how to enable and disable it, you could read the following professional guide:
Enable / Disable the Local (Hidden, Built-In) Administrator Account in Windows 7

Regarding Built in Admiin account

I have tried all ways given in the forum of activating the built in admin account but I have failed to locate it on my laptop. I just want to know what is the purpose of the built in admin, why is it hidden and why cant a normal user use it.

Hi,
Apologize for the late reply.
The built-in administrator is hidden by default, this account is basically a setup and disaster recovery account. And
Jesper Johansson has a good article for the built-in administrator account. See:
Why You Should Disable the Administrator Account.
Besides, for the ways about how to enable the built-in administrator in Windows:
Enable / Disable the Local (Hidden, Built-In) Administrator Account in Windows 7(the methods mentioned
also work in Windows 8/8.1)
If any further question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards
