I'm an idiot

Short and sweet, I deleted an admin account on my windows server vm and now I can't get in. It's a home lab and this is why we home lab right? I have 48tb of spinning rust passing through to the VM. If I delete and reinstall windows server with the exact same VM id, what are the chances that the VM will pick up the DAS without destroying the data on it? It's just movies and TV shows, but I kind of don't want to re-download everything.

The OS/VMs are running on a 4TB SSD. Pretty sure I'm running Proxmox VE8.1. I'm about 1000 miles away from my machine otherwise I'd look it up. My apologies. Just trying to get a head start.

Thanks I'm advance.
 
Try privelege escalition to admin on remaining account(s). Search internet on how to do that. Suc6!
 
Proxmox VE isn't involved..
Like baremetal, boot from WinPE iso with added NTPWedit .exe to Unlock built-in Administrator account.
