If you lost windows password, you can go into safe mode (F8 when booting up) to recover windows password while you forgot user account password,but if you forgot administrator password,there is no way to change administrator password while you forgot it,you must use software to recover administrator password.my favorite is Windows Password Recovery 9.0.
hey,trying replacing the CMOS battery.it deletes all passwds
Last month , i lost my windows administrator password. I solved my problem with the help of windows password key. It worked perfectly to reset any local user account to a blank password. Just an easy to use bootable CD/DVD . It can also be used on a USB Flash Drive.
I am sure you are asking for the default password for the admin account on safe mode. It is a blank password. If not, try admin or 1234.
There is no password to access the registry on Windows Vista.
Windows vista have very good security features so it is not easy to crack the password of windows vista. But you can reset login password of windows vista by using password-reset disk. If you doesn't have it, then use windows vista password recovery software.
Four days ago, I had an embarrassing experience that I forgot Windows administrator password. As there is so much important data on my desktop, I can not reinstall Windows. However, I thankfully found a useful tool Windows password Seeker at about.com PC support channel. I download the program and followed step-by-step instructions. Finally, I removed Windows password successfully.
Hi,from command prompt, execute the sqlplus command with this option -- / as sysdbasqlplus / as sysdbaafter log in change the password.ThanksSiva
if you lost or forgot your login password you have to make a password recovery disk or buy a fingerprint reader and use it by means of recovering a lost password. however since there are tons of ways to recover lost passwords for different programs it is always smart to write them down. WRITE THEM DOWN and put them in a safe place like a wallet or purse, it is NEVER a good idea to save them on a word processor on your computer like notepad or ms word
If you have an account which is not an administrative type, you cannot change passwords for administrators. You can try to reset the password but if you are using encryption you will loose your data. this is the queston peroson lol.. but how do i reset it?
You can remove the Vista administrator password on command prompt with an available admin account to enter safe mode first. If you have another Windows Vista admin account, try these steps below: Step 1: Press F8 when your Windows Vista PC is booting. You will come to the Advanced Boot Options. Then choose Safe Mode with Command Prompt and press Enter. Step 2: Enter safe mode with an available admin account. Step 3: Type "net user" and press Enter. The command prompt will show you all accounts on the Windows Vista PC. Step 4: Type "net user Smith 123" (Smith is the locked admin account's name and 123 is the new password) and press Enter. Now you have successfully created a new password on the locked admin account. Step 5: Type "shutdown -r -t 00" and press Enter. Your Windows Vista PC should be rebooted automatically and then you can logon Windows Vista with the new password. If the method above should not work, you could use some third party windows password recovery software, for example Windows Password Key 8.0 or ophcrack.
Reinstall the operating system. There is no other way to retrieve it. There is a will there is a way...Use Ophcrack password recovery software. Its a free open source software. For more info see the link.
