• Windows password reset disk

  Hello

  I have today for the first time tried to create a reset password windows on my USB disk. I inserted the disk on my pc and followed the procedure on the screen, however, told me that there is already a disc. So who created this disk and how? I've never done this before and it's a newly installed pc.

  Here are the exact words.

  There is already a disc to reset password for this user account, creating a new one will make unusable the disc already created.

  Now, I have never create any disk so where it comes from?

  Thank you.

  Maybe someone else did it. What is the reason - it does not matter since the creation of the new disk will make the old disk unusable. Go ahead, create the floppy, then don't forget to test immediately. An untested disc is near useless.

• Is it possible to make a password reset disk for windows 7 by using windows 8?

  Original title: password reset disk

  Is it possible to make a password reset disk for windows 7 by using windows 8. The reason why I ask this is because our Toshiba satellite laptop was stolen when our House was robbed. Fortunately the police recovered the laptop, but the password has been changed and we cannot use it. In the meantime, we have replaced the old laptop with a new one that has windows 8. I made a password reset disk using this, but it won't work on the old laptop.

  any advice would be great

  Best regards, Ian

  Hi Ian,

  You can create a password reset disk only when you are able to log on or access Windows 7 computer and after you have created a password for the same.

  Windows 8 password reset disk can be used only in Windows 8 computer where you created the password and not for Windows 7.

  You must create a Windows password reset disk before you forgot your password. You must also create a new password reset disk when you change your password in Windows.

  If you the administrator password are changed and is not a password reset disk or another administrator account, you will not be able to change or reset the password.

  For more information, see the articles:

  Create a password reset disk

  What to do if you forget your Windows password

• Password reset disk only describes the use of floppy drive A (and they are obsolete). Password reset disk cannot be a CD-DVD, I can use a USB flash instead of the floppy drive?

  I wanted to create a RESET DISK of PASSWORD, but NOOOOO - my machine has a FLOPPY DRIVE. No product only the CD/DVD PLAYERS and one cannot change the a drive to a different letter designation.

  If you really NEED to do this, you are up the proverbial Creek, apparently.  Hard to believe!   How long has he given now that ANYONE used FLOPPEIES (small square disks)?  Certainly, we are asked not to believe that nobody is realized for this oversight!  I TRIED a CD/DVD - no dice.  My machine has 2 CD/DVD players, a Terrabyte Mobile with a slot drive.  My spouse has built this machine, and it is ensured that there are enough USB connectors that I could plant some tulips!  (It's photography & video editing - retirees have a busy life, that pays well.)  There are sites for readers of any persuasion EXCEPT the 1998 'PLACE floppy DISKS'.  Also, as with most machines, I do not want to return and crush things that my husband has a loading on the drives and call other than the names they bear within the network as things go well, otherwise.  We can't decide to call H Drive (CD/DVD drive), drive A, to say, just for the sake of my need to create a password reset disk.  My machine does not allow me to do things on the "fly".  I have to create a NEW one (and download something from those that already exist).  A ray of light shines through the same mess!  I think that maybe I can use a "USB key"?  Does not have a CD rom, but just explore, I ran across the words using a player instead of 'A' USB flash drive.  Hoping that USB key or "memory stick" is acceptable!

  Hi Janice,.

  If you are using Vista, please see the following: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/window-on-windows/create-a-vista-password-reset-disk-using-a-usb-flash-drive/547.

  If using Windows 7, please see the following: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/window-on-windows/use-a-usb-flash-drive-to-create-windows-password-reset-disk-in-windows-7/4142?tag=rbxccnbtr1.

  From what I read, it seems quite simple and easy in both cases.  And not worry about drive letters - it will take whatever drive letter you choose (or who has been assigned to the flash player).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Re: How to reset / recover forgotten Windows password

  Forgetting your Windows administrator login password.
  With no way to get into the system, you can perform even basic maintenance, and still less a complete tune up.
  Formatting is always an option, but we consider that a last resort. (In addition, guess who's going to help to reinstall all the programs lost after a wipe?)

  But all hope is not lost.
  There are several ways to recover a password account Windows lost. Read on, and we'll show you the light.

  _1st method: _

  The first thing check you if you forget the password. When we install windows, it automatically creates an account 'Administrator' and affects his empty password. So if you have forgotten your user account password then try this:

  Start system and when you see Windows Welcome screen / login screen, press ctrl + alt + delete twice and it'll show classic login box. Now type "Administrator" user name (without the quotes) and leave the field blank password. Now, press Enter and you should be able to log on to Windows.

  Now you can reset your password to "user accounts of-> Control Panel.

  Same thing can be done in Mode without failure. In Safe Mode Windows will display this account of administrator in the login screen.

  Method _2th: _

  There are many password crackers and Windows developers.

  Commander of the CIA:

  This tool only works on NTFS partitions, but it works very well! You can even use it to copy the data from one place to another. But this isn't for free.
  http://www.Datapol-technologies.com/en/products/business/CIACommander/main.htm

  Windows password recovery tool:

  but I've found that Windows Password Recovery Tool is the most effective. :
  It supports not only XP, 2000 and NT, I have personally tested it with Vista Home Premium and Ultimate. It works perfectly to reset any local user account is empty by a password.

• E-mail/password reset for an xbox 360. Windows Live support is me misleading to their moderators, etc. I need some help here!

  I need a password reset on an old e-mail account linked to my xbox 360. (the enamel of related Xbox Live account). However after going around in circles with the xbox and Windows Live support person will help me. I have provided more than enough evidence that its me (old/new address, debit card info AND xbox console ID AND serial number for information). And I am NOT to START a NEW GAMERTAG due the fact that I have spent money under my current gamertag. Now they are misleading me to the moderators of Windows with this problem. So now what?

  E-mail bellsouth.net and its related help/support page has since been purchased, reformatted and dissolved for their new name like ATnT. Their support tech/operators won't help me as well since it is a problem of bellsouth and not an ATnT. But the email is bellsouth.

  I can't do any kind of password reset because I forgot my secret question answer. A mistake in good faith, but one that keeps this issue to be resolved. I have provided a list of answers to him but still no help and I keep getting turned down and rejected.

  Windows answers forums are for technical problems and we do not have any control over the resets password for all Windows, XBOX and Windows LIve accounts.

  You will need to contact Windows Live Support as Kim said.

• How can I find the private forum that was set up for me about my hotmail password reset problem?

  You have found the information I sent to reset my password to be insufficient. I need to give you additional information you need, but the link you sent to your email address doesn't seem to take me anywhere where I can do.

  In addition, some of the information requested was for my credit card, but I'm using a free account and I guess I don't need to present this type of information. Is this correct?

  Hi Daniel,.

  I know not who talk you to or by what method (phone, online, email, chat,...), or how it started, but I strongly suspect that is NOT anyone of Hotmail and you should stop communicating with them and providing personal information any more than you already have and immediately delete all emails from them and who come in the future and do not go to all the links in the emails and do not open attachments to emails.  I'm almost certain it's a scam and an attempt to identity theft and possibly worse.

  Now let's awhile back and check something.  Did you password reset instructions below and receive the email them with a link to reset?  If so, this may be valid; However, if the link is not valid (or even if it is still perhaps not trust because he could easiily be redirected) and request information (enamel on their part is not ask for information but just give a link), especially as your credit card, then it is totally wrong and what I said above applies. In this case, I post on the forum and forget that normal reset method and get help directly from them where you KNOW who you're talking about.

  If they want to use the e-mail process (or need to because you have not provided no alternative), then ask you provide the link they will send (I guess they won't) or to include a way to check for certain that the email is from them given the circumstances - perhaps including a few special as coded message "this message is verified to support Hotmail with the code we agreed on Au93kgke9le ' or some thing like this and ask them to send you a private link response so you can send private code and not in the open air in the thread.

  To resolve this issue, go to http://windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=1 for support of Hotmail.  For assistance with your password, post your question in the following forum: http://windowslivehelp.com/forums.aspx?forumid=d3fda415-1e53-4007-8e0c-2a77180ffb1d.   Here is specific information on the password reset: http://windowslivehelp.com/solution.aspx?solutionid=bf5d34bf-db28-44ca-ac9a-93838d81b2d6 but be careful if the messaging process is used and do as shown above, or make them use another method (or offer a safe alternative).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Envy of HP Touchsmart m6 Sleekbook Windows 8 password reset

  My friend pulled a joke on me by changing my password on my laptop.  He changed the username to a false address, so the password during extraction is impossible and if you believe that he forgot the password.  How to do a reset? In addition, this laptop has no ability to drive.  Ive been told I'll need to open the back of the computer, remove the battery of 'shows' and the RAM sticks while pressing power, then replace all.  Sounds simple, but I know very little about computers, beyond basic user software.  Thank you!

  Not really, no.  It could be an accident too - someone ' one with a user name very similar to yours that's typo in their username, may not know why they are unable to open a session, requested a password reset, thinking they forgot what it.

• Unable to access computer because the account password for Windows Vista has been forgotten and don't have a password reset disk/hard to find ways to restore the system... Help please

  Hello
  I'm stuck on the screen on my computer for my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit edition. The password to the user account has been lost, and now I am unable to access my computer. I don't have a created password reset disk so I can't reset the password. I searched these forums and seems the most effective way is to run a system restore to a time where I did have a password for my account. Fortunately for me, I did an automatic update of Windows that created a system restore point literally moments before I put the password, so I should be able to get access to my computer once I figured out how to get system restore to work. The advice I found on other forums do not seem to work, because I'm in my Windows vista operating system disc, but no screen is coming up with 'Repair your computer', which indicate the steps happen. I need assistance to find another way to run the system restore on boot menus/Vista/DVD CD. Thank you.

  Go to Bestbuy or other PC shop. They can fix it for you. (Could I have so I am not allowed to post these alternative instructions.)
