Most of the posts on this site are designed to work as a reference for myself down the road when I have a question and know I have addressed it in the past.
Just dont remember how.
This is one such scenario where I stared to use Windows 2012 Server.
Due to the major change in the way things are organized, I am not able to get to configurations the way I am normally used to for over a decade.
Learning new ways of doing what I have done for years has been a pain, but also a learning process.
I finally ran into a scenario where I was trying to disable the administrator account and use a different account for administration purposes.
Which I follow as standard practice.
The easiest way to get to my trusted UI tools I found was to start up the power shell and type in the corrosponding commands for screen I am trying to get to.
