http://quickbytesstuff.blogspot.sg/2015/08/quickly-access-command-prompt-or.html


Type:  net user administrator /active:yes

If the command prompt is not elevated you will receive this error:

System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied.

However if the command is successful, it will show:

The command completed successfully.



After activating the hidden administrator account, log off or switch user to the newly enabled administrator account. And login to the hidden administrator account that was just activated.

At the administrator account, try installing the team viewer again and you will be able to successfully install the team viewer.

Don't install the team viewer using the command prompt, log off or reboot and login to the newly activated admin account and double click on the team viewer installer.

If there is a confirmation whether to install or run the software click on "Run" and follow the on-screen instruction of the teamviewer  to install the software.

If you don't have administrator account on the computer, enabling the hidden admin account will not be possible.

    you forgot the administrator password? or you haven't turn on?
    well if you really forgot your password, then you will need some third party tools or you can just format your PC.
    But of course, you need to backup all your data.

WMIC get computer name

WMIC get computer model, manufacturer, computer name and  username. WMIC is a command-line tool and that can generate information about computer model, its manufacturer, its username and other informations depending on the parameters provided. Why would you need a command line tool if there’s a GUI to check? If you have 20 or 100 computers, or even more. It’s quite a big task just checking the GUI to check the computer model and username. If you have remote computers, you need to delegate someone in the remote office or location to check. Or you can just write a batch file or script to automate the task. Here’s the code below on how get computer model, manufacturer and the username. Open an elevated command prompt and type:     wmic computersystem get "Model","Manufacturer", "Name", "UserName" Just copy and paste the code above, the word “computersystem” does not need to be change to a computer name.

Here’s an example on how to convert multiple rows or lines into a single line. Example data: Multiple rows, just a sample data. Press Ctrl+H, and  on "Find what" type: [\r\n]+ and on "Replace with" type with: , (white space) --white space is needed if need to have a space in between the data.

Print error 016-799 - Fuji Film Xerox

016-799 Fuji Xerox or Fuji Film print error code. That shows a description error as “Print instruction Fail detected in decomposer.” The error code and error description are alien languages for users and even system administrators who are not familiar with Fuji Xerox error code. The error code is quite simple and easy to fix, if the job print goes to the printer but print out doesn’t come out. So, basically the print job was received by the printer, but the printer just doesn’t know what type of paper or what size to use or which tray to utilize for the print out. In some instances, this is just a paper mismatch but the error description; if using Windows 10 to print does not exactly points to what is the issue. First thing to check, is the paper size selected by the user to print. Example, if the printer configuration is A3 and A4 sizes only. But then the person printing the file accidentally chooses “A4 Cover” then this error 016-799 will occur. ...
