On the video he does not show how to put things back into place (the utilman file) please advice.
Restore Utilman?  Reboot to the DVD and then open the command prompt and reverse it.  Rename the "command prompt" utilman and then rename the backup of the original file back to normal.  Then reboot.
To restore Utilman, is like this?
copy Utilman.exe.bak Utilman.exe
copy cmd.exe Utilman.exe

Did you personally use the software of the link you provided since I already had few of them which ended up not doing the job

...but I've used it many times with 100% success on client systems that are not DCs)
Lee I already used now on one server and it worked I'm asking Ramin in regards the software he posted the link
That wasn't clear to me.
