    Dear Sir,
    I have done this mistake. I have hidden administrator by mistake and now can’t bring it back, however I have followed your instruction but it didn’t help.
    Would you please help me to bring administrator account back?
    Best,
    Haroon

      Tell me exactly what you did?
      What is the problem, after you have followed steps above, your Admin account is still hidden/locked?

    Wow.. you just saved my stupid ass!
    Tho you should also mention to “Unload Hive…”,
    else the changes aren’t kept on disc 😉

    @ Harsh Khandelwal
    have no doubt
    You have either orig disk or admin rights to create the repair disk so it works.

    @ someone
    I didn’t have to unload hive, it worked without that.
    I just changed setting to 1 from 0 (decimal)
