I have 2 accounts, one of them is just a normal Microsoft account that I log on to every day, the other one is administrator account I just hid with SpecialAccounts registry hack.
The problem is, what SpecialAccounts does is just disabling that account, and I have configured my UAC settings to highest possible, so if I do anything that changes system even slightly, I need to type administrator password. However, that I have actually disabled this administrator account, now nothing shows up on UAC warning/confirm screen, so I can't even revert back or anything.
Am I totally screwed? Or is there a way to do something to get out of this jail?
What I've tried:
regeditrequires admin prev.- UAC setting requires admin prev.
- Cannot log into safe mode, you can only log in safe mode with an administrator account.
- Using advanced restart options to get command prompt and
net useronly showsAdministratoraccount (seems temporary)
Edit: This question is not a duplicate of What can I do if I forgot my Windows password?, I know all my passwords and I can log on to my disabled admin account on advanced boot options. This question is however pretty much an exact duplicate of Locked out of Admin Account but it's different version of Windows so I wrote my own question.
