Sorry for taking your time Torgeir. I messed up.
I'm used to only working with english versions of MS OS and this comp I'm
trying to fix is my uncles and it's in swedish. In swedish we can call an
administrator for:
1. Administratör (Administratoer)
or
2. Administrator (just like in english but diff pronounciation)

Stupid me only been trying with "Administrator" as account name.

Worked fine with "Administratör" (Administratoer)

Thx for your help
