I have two admins accounts A and B in Window 7. I want to disable User Management for B admin account.
My approach that I took was
- I hide the User Management options from control Panel for B from A using Group Poliy. But the problem is hiding does not mean deactivating.
- Even with Command Prompt you can manage users using net user command. So, I deleted net.exe from system32 folder.
So, my approach should work, until and unless the admin B figured it out that I deleted the net.exe file and downloaded this file from internet or just copy from another window 7 computer and paste on this computer.
So, Is there any way I could disable User Management for B admin account from A admin account or any possible way?
One thing was making the User Account B a standard user instead of Administrator but the problem is Account B should have admin right to perform other tasks. Like Install and uninstall software or do backup and so on.
First the computer is not in a domain, Second it is not a problem when the local group policies applies to all users. I just want to disable admin B to create a new user account and change the password. One more thing, Do you have any tutorial where it is explained the points that you have given above? – Lifestohack – 2014-09-19T10:05:29.800
Software restriction policy is quite straight forward, but here's one: http://etutorials.org/Server+Administration/securing+windows+server+2003/Chapter+6.+Running+Secure+Code/6.3+Software+Restriction+Policies/ and here's one for the file permissions: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-File-Permissions-on-Windows-7
