Access denied from the recovery console!? Something is screwy here.

The recovery console logs in as admin (you input the password), so theoretically nothing should be denied...

Can you delete/create other things in the console?


Anyway, you should be able to login as another user (administrator for example) and reset litestep (look in litestep\profiles\[username]\themes\themeselect.rc, set the theme there)

But I have to say it sounds like there is something seriously wrong with your system (which LS has nothing to do with).

I know msmsgs.exe is MS messenger, and that loads fine under LS.
