what does "Net user administrator /active:yes" do to a computer?
- by Rees
i just purchased a new laptop and had some issues with it... I called tech support and they had me run this command in cmd prompt by right clicking the cmd icon and selecting "run as administrator" with root C:\windows\system32:
"Net user administrator /active:no"
after it was determined that it didn't fix the issue we ran this code
"Net user administrator /active:yes"
i then rebooted..and was asked for my windows login for my user account "Rees" as usual.. however ALL my settings where gone (including my desktop files) as though it was the first time I booted up.
WHAT in the world happened with this command?? I desperately NEED my user accounts and files back to how they were!! (running windows 7) Please help!
