Ok so im having some issues with my computer and its not looking good.. I really dont know what happened, but the default user account that I have been using to log on to my computer has changed to Account Unknown, and now I cant log on my computer using that account at ALL. This is my home computer too and its not on any huge network or anything. All my files ect are on that account and its getting really frustruating.. Does anyone know how to fix this?

So let me understand this.. Are you having trouble logging into windows? If that is the case here is what you can do. Restart windows in safe mode. When the log in screen shows up you will see another account name called Admin. Click on that and load windows. Once it has loaded still in safe mode pull up your control panel. And click on user accounts. Then just removed the password you had set on the account in question and change the name. That should work for your. If not... sorry for ya pal.

No I can get into windows just fine.. it just logs me in as Administrator instead of MY profile which is now named Account Unknown..
