    I have accidentally changed my admin account to device admin and now i cant do anything. Every time i try to do something which would require me to authorise it as an admin, it askes me to enter my account and password. this wouldn't normally be an issue but there is no place for me to enter these details. any help would be appreciated. Also i have tried making my icon size small, no change.

    :)

    i have accidentally changed my admin acount to device admin and now i cant do anything.

    admin rights keep disappearing!?!!

    Hi guys,

    I am actually having a problem at work that our IT department hasn't been able to figure out. I am supposed to be a member of the admin group. We are on a domain. The problem is that everytime I reboot the computer I loose my admin rights(no longer in the administrator group) and just become a normal user again. I have tried googling this and didn't get to many results.
    I believe IT is just giving me local admin rights, not admin rights for the whole domain.

    Any suggestions?

    EDIT: It is on Windows XP Pro.
