    Group policy method of enable Windows 7 account.

    There is another way to activating the administrator account in Windows 7 that is Local Security Policy. You need to type secpol.msc in the search bar and hit enter. Then a Local Security Policy windows open, you need to navigate Local Policies > security option where you will find Accounts: Administrator account. Just double click on that and enable it and restart the windows. If you have any confusion after that, Please reply.
