3 Ways to Enable the Built-In Windows 7 Administrator Account

In Windows 7, like Windows Vista, when you install the operating system, you are asked to enter a user name which will be the primary local user that will use this system.

Like in Windows Vista, in Windows 7 the built-in Administrator's account is disabled by default. Furthermore, this account is not associated with any password.

The new user which is created during the installation is configured to be a member of the built-in Administrators group, and in fact, can be used for any management task. That use is in fact equivalent by all means with the original built-in Administrator account.

However, there may be situations where one would like to use the built-in Administrator account instead of that "new" user. One of these might be when you're building a system for cloning purposes, and would like all cloned machines to be able to use the built-in Administrator's account.

Note that since that account does NOT have a password, enabling it without properly setting a password for that account will open a serious security opening on your system!

There are basically 2 easy methods of enabling the built-in Administrator's account and 1 advanced method.
