cannot change the xp administrator password...

It always seems system error... I don't know what else to do... Please help me... Thank you...

Hey Shanks red hair.

In addition to what John said, it looks like there may be a minimum age for the password, in translation, that means that you can not change the password until a certain period of time elapsed. To check or change this:
Log in as an administrator and start the command prompt:
Start-> Run-> "cmd".
Type this in the command prompt:
NET user myusername (enter your specific username in place of "myusername")

The results should contain a line that says:
"Editable password
If this date is in the future, then you have a minimum age of set password.

While you're at the command prompt, enter the command:
net accounts

and search for "password Minimum age (days).  If it is not zero, then you can set it to zero by entering the command:
NET accounts /MINPWAGE:0

I hope that was helpful. Thank you for using Microsoft Answers!

  • Change the local administrator passwd in a technical object of personalization

    Hello

    I would like to enter an existing CustomizationSpec and change the local administrator password before deploying a clone, but I don't want to change the stored specification or create a new.

    I tried:

    $spec = get-OSCustomizationSpec MySpecName

    $spec. ExtensionData.spec.Identity.GuiUnattended.Password.plainText = $true
    $spec. ExtensionData.spec.Identity.GuiUnattended.Password.value = 'newpass '.

    Then, I deployed a clone using $spec, but I can not connect to the clone with the new password or the original source VMs (blank) password.

    Can it be done without the help of the New-OSCustomizationSpec cmdlet?  -I'm not really a real spec created in the database that I have to delete it later, in large part because I would have to enter new credentials in the script domain user, or pull of an existing spec (don't know if it works well)

    I used PowerCLI 4.1 build 332441 U1

    I signed on XP Pro SP3 as an administrator but you cannot change the timing of Windows Update to 03:00.  All options are not enabled.  How can I change the time that updates are made?

    Hi imoffshore,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

    ·         When was the last time it worked?

    ·         Remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    ·         You have security software installed on the computer?

    ·         You get the error message?

    When you open the tab automatic updates in the control panel or My Computer property sheet, all options of configuration of the automatic updates may be grayed out. This happens due to one of the following reasons:

    1. You are not logged as administrator (or equivalent)
    2. Strategy of automatic updates is enabled
    3. Automatic updates (and Windows Update) access is blocked by group policy

    The options available for automatic updates.

    You must make some changes in the windows registry.

    Important: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • Cannot change the password using the question of security in l/min.

    We have an identity server. We have a lost password management application. There is a webpass and a webgate configured for the application of the LPM. The mode of communication is simple. The forgotten password feature does not work for the application of the LPM.

    Steps to re-create the issue
    --------------------------------------
    -In the form of connection, the user clicks on "I forgot my password"link
    -User enter 'User ID' and then click on submit
    -It redirects the user to a page of challenge question, the answer to the question the user and click on submit
    -The next page confirms the user had correctly answered the secret question. And invite the user to enter the new password, retype the password, and then click Save
    -When, click Save shows "cannot change the password. The screen is refreshed. The new password is not saved.

    Identity & Webpass - 10.1.4.2 BP08 Server version

    Thank you.

    Hello

    For the LPM error "cannot change the password" check if you set a "minimum age" in the definition of the strategy of password.
    "If you set a minimum age of 2 days for example, the user will not be able to change his or her password before 2 days after the initial setting of the password and you will have 'identity/oblilx/logs/oblog.log' shows: ERROR 0 x 00000901 lost_pwd_mgmt.cpp:264 'cannot change password' loginName ^ xxxxx" in oblog.log

    --> In our POC password minimum age has been set, and we have forgotten that we have in him... This is why we hade this error on the LPM scenario...
    --> After setting the minimum age to 0, the scenario LPM works every time

  • Cannot change the Google search bar

    In Safari, I go to Google.com and do a google search. So far so good.

    Now, on the search results page, I try to edit the search in the Google search bar and nothing happens - the Google search bar is totally insensitive. To do another search, I use the address bar in Safari or reload google.com.

    I have deleted history, deleted all the data of the Web site, disconnected plugins and extensions, deleted the cache via the menu Developer. I used 3 CleanMyMac to clear and reset everything.  I can't solve the problem.

    Safari 9.0.2 (11601.3.9)

    OS X El Capitan 10.11.2

    Mac Mini (late 2014)

    Please see below:

    'CleanMyMac' is a scam and a frequent cause of instability and poor performance. Depending on which version you have, the developer's instructions may not completely uninstall. Please follow these instructions, then do as below.

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.plist

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

    the contextual menu.*, a file can open with a selected item. If so, move the selected item to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Repeat with this line:

    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    You may also delete one or more of these elements in the same way:

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.helperTool.plist
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.volumeWatcher.plist
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

    Never install "CleanMyMac" or something like that.

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

  • Good for laptop - cannot change the ISP; keep returning to a previous provider

    Windows 7 laptop of my grandson, I'm migrating FIREFOX (excellent resource!) of my aging XP desktop. An existing Mozilla installation on the guarded device tries to connect to an ISP in Sydney (1000km) which kept out, I guess because the signal is too weak. Too far - on the Internet?

    Reinstalled my new ISP contact, reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox, copied the old profile XP (just underneath the random string file name), but cannot change the fault. Firefox at startup tries to raise the old ISP (Sydney) and expires, and then allowing me to establish a manual connect with the ISP (my current) new.
    Perhaps a clue: in my Firefox troubleshooting info, change preferences, the browser start page is the address of 'old', with 'override mstone' ignore, what look like prints of registry entries, but I can't change all that - and maybe it's wise! An annoying secondary question: on arrival, the laptop listed no administrator user. So I am me came as an administrator, but I wonder if a past or current even Admin hidden could register (or other) entered resistant to change.

    Late discovery: the laptop is apparently infected with browser pirate btsearch.name. Search Google throws a series of removal procedures, and I'm now working through them.
    What Miss me?

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

  • "Cannot change the priority. The operation could not be performed. Access denied. "

    When you attempt to change the priority of a process in the Task Manager (no matter what process, I've tried a few) I get the error message: cannot change the priority. The operation could not be performed. Access denied. It is while being logged on as an administrator. Would appreciate a solution.

    Since Windows Vista and Windows 7, a logon administrator account always uses a standard or limited account for certain purposes. To access these properties, you can run a program using the "Run as administrator". To run as an administrator, you right-click on a program and select "Run as Administrator" in the right click menu.

    Some processes of the system, such as services, you cannot change even as an administrator.  Come on in "show processes from the user all the" which will ask for permission. Then reopen the task Administrator Manager and then see if you can change the priority.
