Hide the administrator account in the login screen?


Assuming you are referring to the built-in Administrator Account.

My suggestions :
1. Give the built-in Admin a password only you know. That way, other users cannot access it even it shows up on screen. And you will be able to logon to it easily.

2. Disable the Admin Account ...........
Logon to your own account with admin rights.
Right click at tart > select Command Prompt (Admin) > at the flashing prompt, copy/paste this .......
net user administrator /active:no
> Enter.
The Admin Account will not show up on sign in screen.

To enable the Admin account, in the Command Prompt (Admin), type............................
net user administrator /active:yes

Not sure if that is what you want.

 

Administrator level User

Got the laptop. It's a Lenovo G500 so possibly has Lenovo stuff in the way? Anyway, booted it normally and it opens into a regular account without admin privileges. Rebooted it into Recovery mode (per Option 5) and get Lenovo logo and Preparing Automatic Repair message; then Select Account + "You need to sign in as an administrator to continue but there aren't any administrator accounts on this PC". There is an option "Forgot your password or don't see your account?" but selecting that brings up a screen which should list admin accounts but there aren't any. Pressing the only option on that page Restart leads eventually to a BSOD with Stop code: 0xc00002e3 (which I know is misconfigured o/s or missing or damaged system files).

Can anybody suggest next steps in resolving this?
