For some unknown reason I lost my admin rights and now I'm not able to change
any defaults (ie; email client, etc.). I have booted in safe mode and
selected "Administrator" to sign in but then when I click on my email client
(Incredimail), It thinks I'm a new user and wants to create a new account.
Can anybody help me?

Thanks, JTR

Of course it thinks you're another user, you are using another account and
another folder structure. For all intents and purposes, you ARE a new
user.

From the Admin account, fix the rights on your user account.

If you can't, the account profile may be corrupted, and you may need to
create a new one and migrate what you can. Directions are here:

Why didn't you just fix your account?
