65 How would I go about making an Administrator account (read not limited) from the command line in Windows? I have seen commands to the effect of: net user USERNAME PASSWORD /add However it is unclear if an account created in this way would be an admin account or a limited account.
What he suggests will open cmd with administrative privileges and your net user administrator * command will then work. But if you want to use the runas command then it's runas /user:Administrator c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe But you may need to do net user first anyway to give it a password. so do the ctrl-shift-enter thing.
