I tried to do this with my PC I have 2 errors.

I logged in one of the 2 admin accounts on my PC. Then I tried to change the password of the other account. The name of that account was "Aditya Shevade" Without the quotes ofcourse. I typer NET USER Aditya Shevade and pressed enter, it says that the account does not exist.

When I tried to change the password using a limited account (say Adi) of an admin named test. When I tried to entter ate new pass, an error showed up, System Error 5 Access Denied.

Is there any way to run gpedit.msc if you are not an admin?

Please guys.
