The other day I was working on my machine and I happen to restart my system and when I logged back on, I couldn’t install anymore software or change any settings anymore and I was getting upset. I was like what in the world is going on!? Later I figured out the problem, My user account which was in the administrator group had been removed from the administrator group and added to the guest group. I was trying to figure out why this happened, but apparently it’s a glitch in the Windows 7 operating system. This usually occurs when you set a password for your user account and go to run and type in “control userPasswords2” and uncheck “Users must enter a username and password to use this computer” and when it asks to restart, your account would be a guest account.
So after figuring out what happen, it was time to figure out how to solve this issue, I tired many things but I everything I do would result in a error message stating access denied. So I’m like okay Windows, you’re going to be like that? I restarted my system and selected safe mode with command prompt and once I got to the login screen, I selected other user and typed in administrator as the user name and left the password field worked and thankfully it worked. Now, you can only access the built in administrator account when you are in safe mode because if you started up your computer normally and tried to get into the admin account it would fail or say this account has been disabled. Of course you can enable it and it would most likely work however.

Microsoft is adding a "Windows XP Mode" to Windows 7, in a move to encourage users to make the switch to the software vendor’s forthcoming operating system.
Redmond was keen to emphasize in a blog post late on Friday that it’s hoping to woo small businesses to move to Windows 7 by bigging up the XP mode feature. "Windows XP Mode is specifically designed to help small businesses move to Windows 7," said Microsoft.
Microsoft said it will release a beta of Windows XP mode and Windows Virtual PC for Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate "soon" but wasn’t more specific about when the test builds will land.
When Microsoft released Vista over two years ago, many businesses and individuals complained about compatibility snafus with applications that simply wouldn’t work within the new OS.
Presumably Redmond has built in its virtualized XP insurance policy into Windows 7, a release candidate for which is expected on 30 April, to avoid some of the problems that dogged Vista from day one.
