HIDDEN Administrator Account Windows 10 - UNCOVER It In 3 Easy Ways

Ғылым және технология

There is a built-in hidden administrator account in Windows 10 which is no longer enabled by default since Windows Vista. Up until Windows XP the built in administrator account was readily available when you set up your computer for the first time. Now when you perform a fresh Windows installation like on Windows 10, the first setup account will be a local user account with administrator privileges, but it is not the built-in administrator account which has some extra perks that you are going to want to know about to impress your friends and make your Windows experience much more safe and secure. So today I will show you 3 ways to enable the built-in administrator account after a Windows installation, and I will also explain why you should do this as well as why you shouldn’t really bother, let’s tech it out.
Command in CMD or Power Shell (Admin):
net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator /active:no
net user administrator password

    This video is Useless for someone just trying to access or remove the stupid admin acct that came with your home computer!!! When you 1st boot the comp & set it up you create the admin acct for it however, there is still a hidden admin account from the company that built the computer which has remote access ability!!! HOW DO YA GET RID OF THIS ADMIN acct or at least remove all the permissions that they have??

    My built in (Windows 10) backup "ADMINISTRATOR USER ACCOUNT" seems to be totally gone. I can't even get to the C:windows\system32> window to start this process. It's not even letting me do a SYSTEM RESTORE--- because I no longer have Administrator permission, although I am the administrator. I don't even have a guest user option to create another account NOR the Local Users and Groups, in the Computer Management folder. Arrrggg!

    I'm wondering if my computer is hacked. In my Word Documents, in the Properties, under Security, there is an extra account that says, "Account Unknown(X-X-XX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXX-XXXX)" and it has a long list of numbers where the X's are. Have I been hacked? If so, how can I get rid of this? Also, certain files won't open even across my Gmail attachment, one particular one is my Passcodes file. It says: "WOrd experienced an error trying to open the file. Try these suggestions. CHeck the file permissions for the document or drive. Make sure ther is sufficient memory and disk space. Open the file with Text Recovery converter. Actually just prior, about 2 days ago, the first strange thing that happened was that my computer suddenly said, "This computer has been locked." And I couldn't do anything. I recovered it by holding the power button down and turning it back on.
