Hello guys, this is a tutorial that can be found anywhere else, but I decided I'd put it on here.
If you're having problems with your computer, such as not having the correct privileges to access some programs, here's a solution - unlocking the Hidden Administrator account.

All you have to do, is go into ANY user account (aslong as it's not a 'Guest'), go to your Start Menu, type "cmd" (without quotes) into the Search Box, right click on the result, click "Run as Admin" or "Run as Administrator".

In the prompt that comes up, type this EXACTLY:
net user Administrator /active:yes


Then hit Enter.
If it says "The command completed successfully", then check your User Accounts by going to Control Panel -> User Accounts.

Set a password for the new Administrator account and you're ready to go!

Hope this helped guys, I'll try and write more tutorials soon.
