Welcome Screen/Administrator help

[Lynne W]

I posted a query regarding the loss of Administrator from the Welcome screen
after adding a new user and had a reply saying that by default Administrator
stops displaying when a second user is created. Can someone please let me
know if I delete the new account I created whether it will default back to
Administrator
on the Welcome screen (because we can't log in to Administrator we have no
e-mail)?

I would also add that is not only missing from the Welcome screen but also
from User Accounts in Control Box!

Press Ctrl-Alt-delete twice at the welcome screen (on XP Pro edition only)
and type in "Administrator"

If Home edition, boot to Safe Mode, first.

Create a new admin account, and Import the Administrator settings.
