  • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
  • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista or Windows 7 does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
  • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

• How can I configure mobile android password manager copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?

  How can I configure my new mobile password manager for my android phone copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?
  Right now, I noticed there is only about 8 passwords listed.
  But my office saved password manager has about 50 listed.
  This makes me think that the android app is to choose only to remember what I saved directly with my android. I want to capture all my saved passwords from my desktop also.
  I tried recheck my firefox sync options, but only confirmed that I don't have this game automatically synchronize all my data (including passwords.)

  I found that I have to press the 'Menu' (three horizontal lines in a square) in the mobile view and connect until I'm able to meet Firefox on Android.

  Now that you're on your desktop: try passwords uncheck in synchronization preferences, wait a few seconds, then check again. Then on your phone, the settings of the open Android app, accounts & sync, choose your Firefox Sync account, then Menu > sync now.

• How can I reset my administrator password?

  Hello.

  So I have a big problem. I need to add a printer to my laptop to print important documents, but I can't connect to it without my administrator password. My father is the administrator of my computer and reset his password twice now to remember one, but forgetting the current. We tried everything we could for the passwords, but it did not work. I made a password reset disk, and when I've blocked my standard account and went to the login screen and follow the steps in the password reset Wizard, I came across an error message when I tried to reset the password. The message was this: an error occurred while the wizard was attempting to set the password for this user account. It's a problem I've experienced actually, but that's not important right now. I used to have BitLocker on my USB (password reset disk), but I went through a lot to remove it because I thought it was BitLocker causing the error message to display. However, I removed BitLocker, and I still get the same error message. How can I reset my password without completely restoring Windows 7 because I have on my browser bookmarks that are mandatory for me and there's like a mile away, so I'll never have time to go to each link and save the URL. My father suggest saving all my documents on an external hard drive, then Windows 7 reset, but then all my bookmarks and downloads disappear with it. I'm also not allowed to install some things that I want to use my standard account, but I'm not allowed to do so without the administrator password. I need to reset my password or at least become an administrator myself my own standard account, because I was put in place with this for almost a year now, and I'm tired. I searched online for password crackers that are not very reliable, but also require an administrator password to install! I tried the CMD tactic, but you must run as an administrator to reset the password, right? But how can I do if I don't know the administrator password? I would appreciate it if you could tell me just why I get an error message when I try to reset my password. I thank very you much for your time.

  Sarah.

  Here you go:

  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Configure Windows to a point before you changed the password.
  8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

• 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.

• 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 reset my administrator password on my Windows 7 computer without a password reset disk?

  I only got 2 passwords on my all-in-One of Acer computer. I unplugged a few days ago and only starts today. When I did, the password I used for a long time, did not work. The indication of password has been changed to "the first time" and when I tried to enter the first password I used in the computer, it did not work. I tried the "boot menu" "F8" option, but when I opened the menu (press F12), I have no F8 option. I tried pressing F8 just when the computer was 1st, and it seemed just to freeze the page that displays the configuration of the Start Menu and the BIOS.

  I don't want to have to do a complete overhaul of my computer and lose everything on it. Help, please!

  If you do not want to do a complete makeover so you really need to enjoy various safety nets that are built into Windows 7. They are here:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows CD to repair, then use system restore to set Windows in a week or two.
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (a spare admin account is like a key to the House of emergency. Everybody has one.).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you set it upward, and if this is common).
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

• How can I configure my login password so I only change my password twice a year?

  I think I need to change my password waaay too often to get into Windows. Is it possible to have windows to request a change of password two times a year? Thank you!

  Assuming you don't have XP Pro and a member of a domain that applies Group policies, you should be able to change the maximum age of password using the command 'net accounts' command prompt.

  Open a command prompt window: (start-> Run-> "cmd")
  Enter the following command:

  NET accounts /maxpwage:180

  To set the maximum age of password to 180 days.
  For more information on "net accounts", see:
