How can I change the administrator password?

I use a Windows 7 computer. I open cmd.exe to laugh and try, I've been on the standard user account, I changed the administrator password and I do not know. I don't have a reset boot disk.

With a Dell with Windows 7, you press F8 at startup, not Ctrl + F11

CTRL + f11 was for XP and Dell.

    Hello

    My advice is: when you buy a second hand computer, you must reinstall the operating system

    not sure if it has been used in scams or por * or is infected with malicious software that could compromise online banking

    How to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  • How can I disable the administrator password

    Hello

    I've been using Windows since 1985. Just got a second Windows 7 (64-bit Home Premium), computer (Dell 3000 s) and when the initial installation has started like a fool I typed a password. I don't want a password. It is a computer in the home, no one else will use it and not worth a thing on this subject hiding so the NSA can get bored to death. It is a real pain to type a password whenever he starts or goes to sleep etc. Is there a way I can remove the password (in theory, I am the administrator - might as well be with a network of one person) so I can just log on as I did without problem for 25 years? I have two other machines Win 7 and two of them just don't start - no password at all. Really appreciate some help here.

    You can use this method, which has been around since Windows 2000:

    1. press Windows + R key on your keyboard.
    2. Enter the following command and press ENTER:
    netplwiz
    3 click your account name.
    4. uncheck the box that requires users to enter a password.
    5. click on OK.
    6. Enter your password when you are prompted, and then click OK.
    7. make a note of your password (because you will soon forget!)

  • How can I change the vpxuser password

    Hello

    We have installed vCentre several months ago, and that the company's policy is not to include passwords in the documentation, no one can remember the password for the vpxuser account.

    What contributes to this evolution?

    I guess I need to:

    1) change on the account in SQL

    2) change to the ODBC connection used by VC.

    Anything else I should do?

    It is a user created manually by someone.

    But is a SQL user.

    So you can guess the password or create a new one.

  • How to replace or change the administrator password.

    Original title: I've got a helping hand me down from the laptop. The previous owner was also the administrator. She forgets all THE passwords.

    Please help if you can tell me how can I know or overide the administrator password and the password of the office she now had on users page where you select the user who will use the laptop. As you can see, I'm not computer very warned, I am on SSI and was thrilled to have the laptop to help me but I can't get the passwords I need to help remove, install or difficulty of the programs, files and as I manage problems. I try to install or uninstall something or the computer tells me that I have to do something and then the administrator password is necessary. I went to the Helpdesk and they were very useful for what they could do for free and it can all work but I can't access anything until I can log on to the Office of the administrator first, then do as I was directed by Microsoft Help Desk. Anyone who could help me I would be happy because I can't afford to take it to a professional. And I have no idea how to get around the administrator passwords. I looked for administrator password forgotten, but he did not come. I need to access any of the password for the administrator Office, and then I could get into some other areas or try the Help Desk tells me. Or if anyone knows how to do all this, I had like to hear on your part, thank you.
