acctually the real admin account can't be gone.. look. do as I say..

If you have welcome screen when starting windows, log out (and i mean log out, not chnage user!!), then press ctrl+alt+delete 2 times! very important.. don't do it very fast, and not very slow.. just press them like when you press 2 spaces or something.. then a window will pop-up.. just write "administrator" as the name, and try to login (not sure that u need password).. just try that.. then try to enter the "my documents" for the user you want.. ok? just do as I wrote.. if it did not work, login as a guest again, and write that here.

Edit:!!! If you have english version of windows it is Administrator. If you have another language, and administrator don't work, try to write it in the language that your windows use!!

try to show the "hidden files".. I hope you know how to do that tongue.gif

Enter "my computer".
on the top, press "tools".
then press (not sure what it is in english, but it should be something like:"Folder Settings").
then press on the second tab.
then press on "Show hidden files".
(when i try to see administrators documents, i can.. maybe you can't because you are logged in as a guest. My files isn't hidden.)

YOU ARE GENIUS!!!
IT WORKED
I FOUND MY DOCUMENT FOLDER
smile.gif THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Hey, you can do this:

restart PC and press F5 or F8 repeteadly, until you get windows advanced start options. Then choose start in SAFE MODE.

After windows starts, you can log in as the Administrator account, if you created a password for it when installing windows you have to type it in here, and when you get to the desktop, just go to control panel, users, and look for the user you can't sign in and remove its password, and also try to uncheck the option "make files private", that way, any other account in your PC can reach your documents files (yourself) to recover them.

If you still can't, then you can just get a ubuntu live cd and browse the hard drive from linux live cd, and look for your documents folder.

Hope it helps.

You can go to START/CONTROL PANEL/PERFORMANCE AND MAINTENANCE and on the left side there should be option SYSTEM RESTORE. click on this and ther eu can chose date for which you want your system to be restored. After that you should have all documents back. It worked for me few times;)
