i'm sorry if i posted this in the wrong section. But i have made a VERY dumb mistake, and i don't know how to fix it :/ there MUST be a way, otherwise windows such REAL bad well, here's the story:
i was craeting some bat files to make work easier. now, i created one to delete the "THoRaX" user on the PC. but i accidently executed the cpommand on my PC. (the user i was was called THoRaX , only user..) so i deleted my own account, i though.. (filtered).. and tried to recreate the THoRaX user, and gave him admin rights ect. so i hoped it was ok. BUT i needed to reboot my PC yesterday, and i CAN login as the THoRaX user, BUT:
CODE
Lidmaatschap lokale groep *Gebruikers Lidmaatschap globale groep *Geen De opdracht is voltooid.
which translated means i am a USER group.. also, i lost all my files because those belongs to the original thorax, which is appearently still there. In documents and settings there are:
THoRaX --> admin user, which i deleted THoRaX.THORAX --> (filtered) user.. which i can only use now..
well, i COULD get my files if i had access to the THoRaX map. BUT i DONT have axx to that folder :/ also ALOT of rpograms doesn't work, cant control the network connection , can't execute things in dos etc ect..
i tried :
Pswump tp crack the standard administartor password, but, you guess it already, NO PERMISSION
then i tried to crack the SAM file in C:\windows\repair\sam BUT no axx :/
tried to add a user: NO PERMISSION
Sooooo.... i kinda don't know what to do now :/ Windows cant be THIS (filtered) up.. there must be a way to create an account with proper rights...
guys, if you know something which could help, it would be highly appreciated, or would like to wait with the format , until i tried everything possible , because would be s shame if i lost all my files

Ask the administrator to regive you rights?
Sorry if its a dumb thing to say, but makes sense to me if everything is legit

For that problem there are nice linux bootdisks
Its main purpose is to reset the win paswoord. You can change adminpass with it, change groups.
I often forget the pas of my winbox. I have to reset it al the time
So what i would do is reset ALL win account, also the default Admin account (the linux tels u wich is the default adminaccount it reads the sams). Then log on as default admin, then set thorax as admin an set 'user has to change pas on next logon'.
That schoud do it.
Ps. The bootdisk is easy to use. If 1 finger and an numeric keypad 80% is donne.
If u cant find it pm me ftp space or your email and wil mail u an iso.

You cant delete the default admin account can you ?
User: Administrator Pass:
Press ctrl + alt + del *2 on the welcome screen. Its worth a try.
What version of windows are you using ?

i think he means login in with the default administrator account. unless of course, that was your ThoRaX account, which you renamed. Generally, there is the Administrator account and then the poweruser/another administrator account, which I would assume to be Thorax.

If the original THoRaX account, the administrator one, is still there, what happens if you try logging on with that account?
In your user account, are you able to change passwords of accounts/reset accounts?
If nothing seems to be working you could try a local privilege escalation exploit to allow you to set everything up again.
In future, create a backup admin account for things like this

Try to use hxxp://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ Reset admin password, then use it to give all privileges to your acc. I hope this will work...
