        I solved it using cmd after a few hours of comparison with my friend's help. Turns out usernames with a '.' in them don't seem to work well with cmd. Other accounts could be changed other than one called "The.Sun". Oh well, I'll have to ask someone to delete then.

        So why can't you do a repair install of vista so that it fixes your control panel to where you can do all of this yourself?

          A repair install keeps all your files and settings.
