forgotten username and password

can not connect to windows XP profrssional due to forgetfulness of password and username

Hello lynneaam,

Unfortunately Microsoft does not allow us to give instructions on how to bypass (hack) any password software.

So really, you forgot your user name and password you should consider reinstalling the operating system from scratch.

This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  • Account - My Windows email account to login with a username and password of e-mail

    I had this same problem about 2 years ago... my windows email account wants to connect with a user name and password. Why? It's been so long, I don't know what they were... I don't want this problem with my email... ever... How can I avoid this.    I just created a different password so I could do...

    If you have forgotten your username and password, you will need to contact your email provider and get this information from them.  At the same time, they can tell you the right settings for your e-mail program, you specify here, so it is difficult to proceed further in your question.  You can check here: www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • My blackberry blackBerry smartphones wants to connect... but I don't remember setting up a username and password!

    Hello

    "I had to buy a second hand BB Bold 9700 as I broke mine and everything is fine, but when trying to set up my email he asked me ' to access your settings of e-mail or if you have changed your device please connect you. but I do not remember establishment of a login and a password! This isn't my email address he wants, he wants another connection. I can only assume I have configured a connection for more than a year but I have no idea what it is (Yes have tried what I think) and there only to have your password sent to you, but that is useless if I can't give them my paper to the name. Anyone know what I'm supposed to do? I'm puzzled! I have to either somehow know my user name and password or I need to have everything reset.

    any help will be very appreciated!

    Hiya!
    It's your BIS account ID. If you have forgotten your username and password, you can call your provider and they can reset it.

  • Whenever I update FireFox all my usernames and passwords vanish in password manager

    For several updates recent Firefox all my usernames and passwords (stored in password manager) disappear. I was able to recover them by exchanging one or more of the three files to a previous version ('Key3db', 'Logins.json' and 'Prefs.js') until this WHAT THE LAST THREE OR FOUR updates. This patch no longer works and I hesitate so far. I would like to know... a) this bug has been fixed?
    (b) if it is not, how can I keep my ID & password somewhere else so I can quickly re - install, or at least see them in a list so I can manually copy all back in?
    (c) how to prevent a pop-up annoying telling me to update to FireFox (other than by the update)?

    I used FireFox with happiness for many years, but this problem is very annoying and I am looking to change (with great reluctance) to another browser if an other update loses all usernames and passwords, and I have to re - install an older version to get back them.
    Please help if you can - and thank you for considering this issue.

  • The function of master password automatically enter other sites usernames and passwords when you access these sites, or that they are always manually?

    Master password enter usernames and passwords automatically, or should the user still manually enter this info?

    Yes, after you set a master password, you will be asked to enter when Firefox needs to access your stored passwords. It will "unlock" the usernames and passwords you have saved and Firefox will automatically added automatically in for you when you navigate from site to site.

    When you are finished using the web, you can exit Firefox to "lock" your usernames and passwords.

  • I backed up my drive with Idrive before it crashed, but after reinstalling my backup for firefox profiles, I can't return my saved usernames and passwords

    I have backed up our hard drive on IDrive, replaced the failed hard drive, but I cannot reinstall my user name registered and saved passwords from saved files. I reinstalled my profile from the back to the top successfully, but the user/passwd news aren't there. I understand that this info is stored in two different places, and I tried to locate the missing files in my Idrive account, but nothing helped. I'm wasting my time or this info is salvageable? Thanks for any help.

    SUCCESS! This is the solution I needed. Thank you very much. After resetting my preference signon.importedFromSqlite on the topic: config page by default, deleted the file logins.json in the current profile folder and then I drugs and dropped my old code of my saved files file and VOILA! All of our usernames and passwords reappears.

    Thanks Cor - el. Thank you help and time to solve my problem!

  • Why firefox does not save some username and passwords and names of other not - especially for the same website?

    I use several different accounts LogMeIn, each with their own username and password. Is there a month, Firefox stopped asking to save the user name and password for the new accounts I have access. I even deleted all accounts and began more - most of the time I will ask you to save the information of connection but other LogMeIn accounts that I access Firefox will not be asked to save the passwords. You can provide any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I had this taken care. After removing all the old names of login and passwords, you must restart Firefox with a hot start.
