One of my relatives has, out of resentment, restricted all the user accounts
in my computer to "limited", inclding my own, and left the house forever. The
only "computer administrator" is his accout, which is protected by a
password. Now I cannot use any account with computer administrator
privileges. I need help!!
Does anyone know how to unblock his accout, or any other idea for the rescue
of my computer?
