Hi there,
In the first place, An admin account won't switch itself to a guest account, even if you try. The possibility could be, you logged in to another account, having administrative privileges and changed the one you are speaking about. OR, You might still have administrative privileges but seems a particular application is not being run because of some anti-virus functioning! Well, You have to log in using an Admin Account and then make whatever changes you want to make to other accounts! Reply if you're done!

Restart computer in Safe mode by pressing F8 repeatedly during boot up. The administrator login should appear and you should be able to log on. From there goto control panel and then user accounts. You can change your administrative rights from there.

Well, you have to login to an Admin account, to create/edit your account or a new account. If you are the only user......I'm not quite sure the way around that.
