I can't create a password for my Windows account.
I can't put a password for my administrator account. Whenever I try, I get a message saying that Windows cannot change the password.
I can set passwords on other accounts, just not this one.
All the answers?Hi SilentEngima,
Thanks for posting answers.microsoft.com
You can try to create another administrator account and then you can keep the new account and delete the old one (be sure to copy the necessary files in system folders is first!), or you can use the new account to set the password for the old account (e.g. from the control panel-> user accounts).
Let us know if this helps you or if assistance is needed.

I couldn't put a password for my laptop
Hi all
I tried to put a password for my laptop but I can't, he says that I have to take something away from UBS even I don't have nothing put on
do you know if I can solve this problem?
Hi romio,.
Please specify. To set a password for your Win8 machine, under the "user account" in Control Panel you will need to click on 'Make changes to my account in the computer setting' and from there, you will be able to set a password for your laptop under the sign "in the options.
'Create a password reset disk' for you the machine is a fail safe for you in case you have forgotten the password of your machine. In this case, it will take a recovery password and this will require a USB flash drive to create the recovery.
I hope this helps.

(1) how can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not my main password for things Firefox stores)
(2) how can I change my password for connection of Thunderbird? (Not my master
password for things Thunderbird stores)
Just answer (Email removed by mod)You don't have to log in to Firefox. Firefox is just a browser, such as Internet Explorer. Everything you have to do is double-click it and open it. It's like Internet Explorer. If you have some sort of password extension protecting your Firefox, it's different and you need to contact the developer of the extension.

How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone must enter the password before running firefox
My younger sister run my firefox just to this afternoon (she origin use IE), and she saw something that is not visible. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone must enter the password before running firefox?
Another option is the master password + extension.
You must first make sure that Firefox uses a master password, for more details on how to do that see use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords. Then with the master password + extension in its options, go to the getting started section and make sure that "ask for password at startup" and "Exit if cancelled" is selected both.
As with all extensions, this protection is quite weak and can be bypassed if start you Firefox in safe mode that disables extensions.
