Solve : Admin account rename? |
|
Answer» hi everyone , what i am trying to do is write a bat file that will rename the admin account on a vista/win7 system. for example, the admin account name is wylers, i want to be able to run the bat file as a different admin and rename wylers account to wylers light. if it can be done. thank you Why do you need to do this? I am an admin on a network And you need to ask on a forum? http://www.bluemoonpcrepair.com/wp/?p=155 Because am not a script writer.... to my understanding when you don’t understand something or need help you turn to form with people who can help you. but it seem that you are trying to insinuation or Interrogate me I'm sorry if I seemed skeptical; we get a lot of script kiddies and pranksters on here who ask about bypassing system security, and I WANTED to make sure you weren't one of those. I think the sysprep route is the way to GO if you want to do this during image deployment. Its perfectly fine , you have to make sure now a days. And I do appreciate your help. The only think is by the time it reaches me I just have to change the admin name and install selected software that sometimes changes with each user. The script I have now installs the software, am just trying to seeing if it’s possible to build on it and ADD the name change script. but i will give sysprep a try and post back when am done. thanks againIf you are in a domain environment you could push down a GROUP Policy to change it. There are also 3rd party utilities that can do this as well. Got lots of hits on my web search. Looks like you can do it with wmic as well. http://www.windows-commandline.com/2011/10/rename-local-user-account.htmlthe way this environment is you have better luck learning a new laugauge then getting a group policy added. but atleast now i have a directions, with the information i got. thanks squashman and salmon |
