  1. Access Denied


    Is there a way of eliminating the "Access Denied" message when I try to do anything with some files for which I am the owner. I also own my computer and also, I am the only user. I do not understand the reason I have no access to many files which are not even system files. Some are downloaded files.

    Please, help. I am tempted to abandon windows for some other operating system.

    :)

    Access Denied

    net user administrator /active:no keeps saying access denied.

    Hi Rebekah,

    It's possible that you're not using an elevated command prompt, causing the Access Denied error. We suggest following these steps to properly disable the built-in administrator account:

    • Right-click the Start button.
    • Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Copy and paste net user Administrator /active:no and press
      Enter
      . If the command isn't successful, please post a screenshot so that we can study it further.

    Let us know if you're able to hide the administrator account after following these steps.
