Win 8 does not display icons and does not let me into the start menu?

I created a user account on my father's laptop. However, he does not display any icons on the desktop, only the labels can be seen. He also doesn't let me into the start menu and I can't open the sidebar. Everything works fine in my father's user account.

YOU created your own account? I only ask because you need administrator rights. But I guess you don't have one?

Had to give you via your father's account: administrator rights

I've already. But what should that have to do with it?

But I did, and I know my father's password, so I just made one for myself
