Hi

I have bought a systems unit (second hand) from someone
with Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition - I am new to XP?

My problem is - that I have made myself a 'Limited
Account' user from a 'Administrator Account' (AA) user -
how do I get back to being a (AA) user

Malc
PS:- It is the only the one account showing in 'User
Account'

Boot to Safe Mode and log on to the built in Administrator account. This
built in account is normally hidden from the Welcome screen and is an
excellent "spare account" for getting out jams such as this one.

The password for this account is blank unless the user changes it. Once
logged on, you can go to User Accounts in Control Panel and change your
usual account back to the administrator group.
