Hello room,

I have a Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise 2008 SP that run in domain network.

The SQL Server 2008 is running in Window authentication mode.
I have renamed the “Build account for administering the computer/domain” to “ABCAdmin”.

If I rename “ABCAdmin” back to “Administrator”. I noticed that on Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Security folder still showed “ComputerName\ABCAdmin”.
How can I change from “ComputerName\ABCAdmin” to “ComputerName\Administrator”?

Can someone help please?
Thanks,
Edwin

I accidently delete "ABCAdmin" account in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Security folder.

Now, I cannot connect to SQL Server 2008 servers.
