Windows 8.1 NOT creating WOU Admin

Windows 8.1 NOT creating WOU Admin

Postby Cababs » 03.09.2014, 22:04

On Windows 8.1 x64, CreateUpdateAdminAndEnableAutoLogon.vbs will not create the WOUAdmin account. This stops the restart and recall option.
I have only noticed it on Windows 8.1. I am signed in to my MS account when I try to create a local account Windows gives me Error Code: 0x80070005

Will it matter that im using the 90day-trail of Windows 8 Enterprise. (37days Remaining)?

0x80070005 means "access denied". Did you run the script as admin?

yes I did run the script as admin.
I have since found out that I cannot manually install updates. Tried to do it for Office XP Sp3 (for MS Frontpage) and VirtualBox. both say I need an administrator account

Even if you are logged in as admin, script won't be executed with admin rights (since Windows 8).
Open an administrative cmd and enter the following code:
Code: Select all
cd "<your wsusou path>\client\cmd"
cscript .\CreateUpdateAdminAndEnableAutoLogon.vbs

Try running wsusou from a local profile.

If you can't create a local profile, try this
Code: Select all
net user Administrator /active:yes

and create a local profile from this account.
After that, disable the internal admin account using
Code: Select all
net user Administrator /active:no
