It's much safer to NOT give out your personal information.....I hope you
find the answer to your problem!
 
quite correct patty yet you did her no favours by
reposting that info in your reply

First off, you really shouldn't use the adminstrator account for your
normal use. You should keep that account for use only when it's needed
and do your internet browsing and all with a limited account because for
most of your internet activites you won't need administrator priviledges.

On Control Panel, you'll see USER ACCOUNTS, click here, select the
account name that you want to manage and you'll have a list of choices
including CHANGE ACCOUNT TYPE which is the one you want.

Problem is, I imagine that you'll have to have administrator priviledges
to be able to change an account to administrator. But the USER
ACCOUNTS screen will list all accounts along with their type and perhaps
that knowledge will help you.

If you are unable to access ANY administrator account then the only
solution that I know of, is to reinstall Windows. Someone who knows more
than I may also know differently.
