Hi, I read that it's better to not workd/play on an administrator account on vista. I always did but now i'd like to change this. I made a different account, set this one to administrator and made mine a normal account.
Then i tried to hide the administrator using
net user administrator /active:no

I used it on my account and the administrator account and both say: acces denied, how do i solve this?
thnx for any replies
