OMG! I have lost my user account on my laptop, and all data along with that!
I was setting up a New account, and i noticed that the option "limited account" was not available for this New account, and the message was: "At least one computer Administrator account should be set up". I was a bit surprized about what type is MY account then?? so i went back to my own account and checked it, and it was "Computer Administartor".. so I didn't want to spend time for firguring out what's going on, and just went and set up a New account also as Admimistrator. And after that right away I discovered that My own, the original accout is not existing anymore!! and I cannot find it! Is that possible that it has been deleted??? What can I do about it? how can i bring it back?? ALL MY DATA: documents,pics,music, Favorites, all gone!! I am in shock!!
Also, some other .NET account appeared in the Users Accounts (but there is no such account on the desk top, when you just start Windows, and choice of Users are given )
What is that?? how can i find my account? it couldn't get deleted completely, right??
thanks guys!

what do you mean i don't know anything about it????

it was much deeper issue than just simply hidden account, ok??

DaRu, i have tried everything what has been suggested by IT professionals here before even posting this topic, and I have done it by myself.. But the problem was different...That's what ulas told me, that someone set up my comp in a way that I cannot manage it myself, ok? Everything is blocked, everything is secured by the passwords, the rest is hidden, and connected to the mobile with the full access from it... I didn't even know about it..And ulas was right!!

.. hey gals, going back to the topic of "hacking" e-mails and stuff... here you go...they can hack a whole comp, so that you even don't realise it, until some ussue comes up...let alone hacking some miserable e-mail account! for some ppl it's a matter of couple of minutes..:)

I sent you an e-mail regarding how to sort out the problem.

As I believe, you need to login in to your OS rgt? weather its a limited/admin or any type of account, I can help you.

It has nothing to do with ASP.NET account.

Try using the Unlocker App. Its a Freeware.

telljax, I AM logged in as an Admin.. you remember I told you that i set up a new accout as an Admin as well? ...and I checked it now again.. it does shows that it's the Comp.Admin account...and it shows that as an admin, I can "create, change and delete accounts"... but while it's on C:, the access to this folder is denied..

Log Off when Promted.

wait a while and small windows will apper

then press

Control Alt Delete at the same time

enter password if any and hit enter

i know, Moh.. but the access is denied...! this is the problem!

now a bit more difficult question: can it be connected soemhow to ASP.NET account, which i discovered recently? can my account be hidden under this mystic "user", which nobody never set up??
