Enable Disable Hidden Administrator Account on Windows 7

Enable Disable Hidden Administrator Account on Windows 7


Enable / Disable Hidden Administrator Account on Windows 7

Earlier versions of Windows used to make the inbuilt administrator account active by default. With the advent of Windows Vista and then Windows 7, the administrator account stopped showing up. Many just wondered what happened to it?
Well it is very much there. Although, you’ll need to activate it to show up. Here is short command prompt trick to do that:
Tips: Sometimes you may forgot Win7 administrator password, then you can read “How To Get Windows 7Administrator Password”

Enable Built-in Administrator Account in Windows 7

1. Search for the command prompt from the start menu (by typing “cmd” in the search box), right click on it (as it shows up) and choose “Run as administrator”.
2. In the command prompt window type the following,
net user administrator /active:yes

3. Once the command is successfully carried out, you will get a message that says, ” The command completed successfully”.
4. Log out and you will be able to see the built-in Administrator account.
NOTE: The administrator account is not password protected by default. Since it has all the administrative privileges, it is recommended to provide a password to it if you are going to use it.

Disable Built-in Administrator Account in Windows 7

The steps are very much the same as the previous section. Only in this case use the command.
net user administrator /active:no
Once you get the message “The command completed successfully”, log off and you will find that the built-in administrator account has vanished.
The above process is demonstrated using Windows 7 Ultimate Edition. However it works with Windows Vista too.

Exchange Your Administrator has made a change and requires you to restart Outlook

Exchange Your Administrator has made a change and requires you to restart Outlook


If you are facing this kind of problem on Exchange and outlook there are severar reason fo that.

 

1. At first you can download this tool and evaluate any Office 20XX client problems

Office Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT) information

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2812744

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36852


The problem arises when an Outlook client connects to the CAS array and initially, if outlook connects to the CAS array member that contains the PF role, then Outlook converges all connections and displays both the Public and Private logons as one single connection (the CAS array name). When the Clients IP address changes, and it Re-connects, if it gets connected to a CAS array member that does not have the PF server, then we get an ECwrong server Response from Exchange, Outlook in its reconnect logic Cannot follow the Redirection Result that contains the correct PF server name, and displays the Error "The Administrator has made a change that requires you restart Outlook"

2. Mitigations:

You have the option to completely suppress the dialog:

• Uncheck the option “Show Microsoft Exchange Messages” from the Outlook icon on taskbar, and test the behavior.


This setting is controlled by the registry value..

4. If you put in standby your pc and outlook is not correctly closed autodiscover and pc wake un can give you that alert

5. Here is an interesting article that explain ADSI edit check to view if Exchange DB references to wrong Public Folder DB

[UPDATE 2016.05.30]

On a DAG Exchange 2010 configuration here is an interesting article that indicate public folder wrong configuration was the main problem, in my case was the correct answer.

On a Exchange server PF was correctly configured with replication, on the other one PF was not well configurated replication, once done that everythings worked better.
