The “Account has been disabled” problem can appear either after something goes wrong and you are locked out of your user account for some reason or your computer shuts down inappropriately while you are in the process of creating a user account after a fresh Windows 10 installation or upgrade. If this problem appears after your computer shuts down inappropriately while you are in the middle of creating a user account after a fresh Windows 10 installation or upgrade, you will be greeted with a user account named defaultuser0 when you boot the computer up, and any attempts to log in to this user account will be greeted by the “Account has been disabled” problem. The “Account has been disabled” issue completely locks the user out of their user accounts, and that can be a pretty big problem for the average Windows 10 user as any Windows 10 user would be furious if they are simply locked out of their computer for no apparent reason. Well, the following are the two solutions that you can use to fix the “Account has been disabled” issue by yourself:
Create a new account with administrative privileges in Safe Mode
The folks at Microsoft know just how much of a goof the average Windows 10 user can be, which is why all copies of Windows 10 have a hidden account named Administrator that has administrative privileges. In the event that something happens to your primary Windows 10 account, you can lean on this hidden Administrator account and create a new account with administrative privileges for yourself using this account. The hidden Administrator account is only accessible when a computer is in safe mode.
Perform a System Image Restore
The second method that you can use to fix the “Account has been disabled” problem is to perform a System Image Restore. Performing a System Image Restore will restore your computer to a previous point in time, a point at which the “Account has been disabled” problem did not exist. Performing a System Image Restore will not result in a loss of personal files or data but can result in the deletion of apps or updates that were downloaded and installed after the point in time to which you are restoring your computer. And best of all, you can perform a System Image Restore without having to login to your user account.
Use a PCUnlocker Live CD/DVD or USB to reset your password
PCUnlocker Live is a program designed specifically to allow users of any version of the Windows Operating System to gain access to their user accounts in the event that they either forget their password or another problem is restraining them from being able to unlock their accounts.
Enabling the Disabled Account
In the User Access Control in Windows, there is an option which allows users to simply re-enable the disabled account. When we do this, the account will be accessible again with all the previous data and configurations stored in it. However, you must be logged in as an administrator to re-enable the account. Here are the steps: Note: If you do not have an administrator account available, follow the first solution and enable the built-in admin using the command prompt.
