Correct. The built-in Administrator account does not have a password, by default. You enable the built-in Administrator account, log in to it, and change your account type to administrator - or reset the existing administrator user's account password.I don't have the admin password and I am just standard user.

Sorry, can't help you with that. I just tried it with a USB flash drive with Kyhi's recovery drive on it and worked like a charm. Restarting the computer after changing the registry key and I got a nice Administrator account on my login screen that did not require a password. Then in the standard User control panel from Settings you can change your account to an administrator account. Or you can run netplwiz and under advanced options reset other user account passwords, even administrators.Dont Have a usb or a disc that big.
