After Vista restore admin password

I had to restore my HP G60 Vista laptop. After the restoration, an automatic admin account is configured with an autogenerated pw. The restore process does not say what is the pw. What pw is awarded after a restoration of vista?

You must ask the HP support.
It may be true that the password is empty, IE no entry, which is usually the case

  • cannot open a Windows logon after restart, request admin password I've ever had

    After defragmentation, updates, virus scans, I restarted my computer and now I can not get connected.  He is Administrator and password.  It has never been set to my knowledge and I don't know how to get connected.

    See if you can type your normal user account name to change the name of the administrator account.

    If this is not the case, the built-in account named administrator does not have a password.  Just press the enter key.

  • Vista activation - Admin password Incorrect

    Just bought a laptop computer ACER Aspier 5516 brand new.

    I started the PC initial commissioning, accept the use agreements, etc..

    At the first page of the system administrator. Created as username. My son has typed the password (it will be her laptop).

    The problem is, we are now at the logon screen, and we cannot go beyond the verification of password. We get the
    "The user name or password is incorect". error message. We have tried all reasonable permutations of the password nothing is done.

    By clicking on the link "Reset the Passwork" evokes the "this feature requires removable media, such as a floppy disk or USB flash drive. Please insert a disk or connect a USB flash drive, and then try again. »

    It is, you must first have created a password reset disk (which we haven't invited to do), so now I'm stuck.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    You are replying to a three year old question, 2009.

    You start your own question in these forums, for best results.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    See you soon.

  • I changed my admin.password last night and the earlier my husband did a system restore on it. now it tells me wrong password

    original title: help please!

    I have windows vista on my acer aspire 5517 I changed my admin.password last night and the earlier my husband did a system restore on it. now it tells me wrong password... I don't have a dics in it plese... I need help ASAP

    Next time please post in a forum of Vista. This one is for Windows 7. But since you're here:

    You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent asmuTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • After recovery, admin password information with 'points' and impossible to remove or change

    Hello.

    I ran yesterday, updates of Windows 7 but only those necessary.  I do not have one of those as an option.  After the updates completed, I turned on the computer and he was stuck in a loop cycle - from windows, then the admin password, connect you box came.  The box was fiiled in (with "dots" but too many to represent my password) and the screen just quickly flashed back & forth between the login screen and 'incorrect password '.     I tried to change username, and it flashed back into the admin log.

    I did a system restore to the factory settings (after saving all data) using the recovery discs.  After recovery, the screen "Set a password for the account" comes with the box below "Type a password" completely filled with dots.  I can't delete them with the BACKSPACE or DELETE key.  If I put highlight and then try to erase it with BACKSPACE or DELETE, the cursor just moves on the right side of the password box, but it is not always remove the defective "dots" password so that I can change.

    I tried to restart with the power and then switch on again.  After selecting the country & language again, same password screen developed.

    It's stuck!  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  I have computer I have is the HP Touchsmart 310 1155 - Y.

    Thank you!

    It's curious with a recovery.  First, try to reset the password using NTPassword.  Do the boot CD that him following the signs.  If this does not resolve the problem of signon, think to install the operating system from a typical drive of Windows 7 to the same version, using the key of the COA sticker.

  • User admin password not working not not after migration

    I've migrated shared Services and the application of our PROD of TEST environment planning using the 'hypadmin' user, who is a native user with administrative privileges in the two environments. After the migration, we can no more connection to the TEST environment with id (default) user "admin". You can still see the user id in Shared Services and it is put into service as an administrator. However, we are unable to identify with it.

    My understanding is that native passwords do NOT change during the import of LCM. Does anyone know why the "admin" password has scored zero or encountered this problem before? Version is 11.1.2

    Although we have another user "hypadmin" administration, we would like to access the default admin username. We tried to see if we can change the 'admin' password using 'hypadmin', but there is no option to do so when we right click "admin"-> properties.

    We do not have the Shared Services database backups, but if restore us, we will always have to migrate security HSS reuse LCM and so expect to encounter the same problem?

    Any guidance appreciated.

  • Internet lost connection after Vista system restore

    Hello

    I've lost the ability to connect to the internet after system restore.  I tried a few different dates, but have the same problem.  I have tried many of the rememdies on the forums, but now luck. I havn't seen all that is exactly what I'm going thru, so I thought that I have that would give a shot.

    The connection is through a wireless router.  No problem before the system restore (other than a virus major that I have my daughter!).  I have another computer I'm on now has been and still works fine.  I tried the following...

    Rounter unplugged for 5 minutes
    reset the network adapter
    reinstalled drivers
    several things through "command window" (do not remember so)
    I tried several dates on the system restore

    I'm so frustrated.

    I would be grateful to anyone who helps!
