While working on the site, I have removed option, which prompts user to register\login. Now, \user option is not working (can't find the page) and I don't know, how to login as an admin anymore. Please help.

http://yoursitename/user should bring up the login page.

I had also deleted the login feature from the left sidebar, and then logged out. I wasn't sure what to do but this http://yoursitename/user did the trick. Thanks!

Do you mean how to remove the login box so no one can see it on your site? In Admin->Site Building->Blocks, just move the User Login block down to the Disabled blocks section.

I tried this and it worked like a charm.

My normal url from WAMP is http://localhost which in the past, brought me to a page that had the user login info for admin

Now when I launch localhost, I'm not able to login as an administrator.

Can I create an alternative url login that will bring me to where I need to be without adding ?q=user to the url?

If /user isn't working for you, try /?q=user at the end of your base url

type the url as

http://www.xxx.com/user (or)

http://www.xxx.com/user/login (or)

if the clean urls have not been enabled in the site make use of

http://www.xxx.com/?q=user (or)
http://www.xxx.com/?q=user/login

Is there any way to change this url for another?

You may goto 'Administer > site configuration > Clean URLs' to enable it, then the "/?q=user" will turned into "/user". (providing you have your Server's (Apache) mod_rewrite enabled).

I did the following:

1. In Admin->Site Building->Blocks, just move the User Login block down to the Disabled blocks section.
2. While logged in as admin, I logged out (clicking the logout link in admin section) and went to http://www.xxx.com/?q=user (or)
http://www.xxx.com/?q=user/login

Results in:
Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page.

How do I get logged in as admin again?

Entering www.sitename.com/?q=user will get you to a login page. To clarify, user = "user" not your username.

So for an example, if your website is abc.com and your username is abcadmin, you would enter "www.abc.com/?q=user" then enter your abcadmin name and password in the fields that pop up.

I hope this helps.

I am setting up my site. I would like only for the administrator to login to maintain the site. I cannot seem to get rid of the request account link

In Drupal 7, you'll find the link at this path:
http://your.domain.here/admin/config/people/accounts
Under "Who can register accounts?" set it to "Administrators only"

In Drupal 6, it is here:
http://your.domain.here/admin/user/settings
Under "Public registrations" set it to "Only site administrators can create new user accounts"

Note that this just removes the ability for anonymous users to request an account.

I am trying to configure the site, so there is no login for anyone except admins (maybe on a separate page) Does the module allow this? i.e. A user will not have a login option
