MicrosoftWindowsWindows 10
Windows 10 comes with a hidden administrator account called Administrator.
When you install Windows, the account is disabled by default.
The hackers usually targeted this account name to hack into the users systems.
From Windows Vista onwards, Microsoft made changes to the naming convention to keep users safe from such attacks.
Windows creates a new account during installation.
The name of the new account needs to be entered by the user.
If you exit of your box, you will see the option to login as theAdministratoruser.
This can be useful in situations like enabling the administrator account from a remote computer or automating things.
Hence, the methods discussed above will not work in a straight forward manner in Windows 10 Home.
To manage user accounts for this computer, use the User Accounts tool in the Control Panel.
The problem is that you cant initiate the built-in administrator account from the user accounts tool.
So what do we do now?
Its easier to hack the built-in administrator account than you think.
The trick is that since the Administrator account is disabled by default, it doesnt have a password.
you’re free to also change the group of the Administrator account to Standard users.
I have yet to see any side effects of deleting the built-in account.
