How can I reset the password of Windows 8 on a new computer?
I bought a computer with Windows 8 & the seller had entered admin password but they don't remember what it was. How can I reset this password? I tried the reset procedure on my computer Windows 7 & made a usb reset, but it did not work. I do not know how that reset usb on Windows 8 (without permission from the admin). Can someone help me?
If you purchased a second user PC the first thing to do, because it contains apparently data/settings of users is to recover as long as the factory (without saving old data) using the recovery discs or
hidden restore partition

Try the following.
Step 1: Try to start in safe mode. Check if you can login as administrator.
Step 2: If you are able to connect then try to change the password. Restart the computer in normal mode to see if you can connect.

How can I reset the settings in Windows Explorer?
In Windows Explorer, I found a strange behaviour. Double click on a folder in the right pane, under "Name" opens a new window, but it is the search engine. To change this, I clicked Tools - Folder Options - File Types and found 2 symbols of file with Extensions (NONE). Called him "File Folder", the other was called "folder". Looking for their settings by clicking Advanced, I found 'find' to the file and 'explorer' and 'open' sub-folder.
I edited the file file Type by adding 'Explorer' and 'open' and put ' exploration ' by default which is in bold it.
The first syptom disappeared and no window of 'research' more open unexpectedly, but the new window opens in a new window instead of the same window. It made no difference by changing the setting in Tools - Folder Options - general - browse folders: open each folder in the same window/open each folder in a window own tis.
Also, I couldn't explore to memorize the settings of my privileged point of view: details. It is always default to tiles.
Hello
Have you tried to Folder Options > view > reset records? It is the button in the top right.
You can change these views by changing the settings of view Windows Explorer.
Click on view and then add the status bar and change the display option for the icons (I like to use the details).
But sometimes these settings will return to default. Even if you click on apply to all folders, settings may return by default.
One thing you can try is to set your favorite view, then instead of closing the window using the X in the upper right corner, close it via the file menu. This is known to keep the settings in place for some time.
Another solution to the problem is to reset the point of view of folder.
To do the following:
1. start the registry (Regedit.exe) editor.
2. look for the following key in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags
3. make sure that you back up the key by exporting them to a .reg file.
4 remove the keys. You've just turned XP out-of-the-box settings.
5. close the registry editor.
6. restart your computer.
7 customize your folder view.
8. now the new views of folder must remain in place.

How can I transfer a license of Windows 7 on a new computer? Step by step please
Hey guys, I just build my first computer and I don't want to use the HARD drive from my old computer to the new. I was wondering if there is some way I can transfer my Windows 7 license from the old computer to my new computer? I would be grateful if someone could answer with step by step instructions. Thanks a bunch!
Hello!
If you have an OEM of Windows license (which is pre-installed when you purchased your PC) on the old computer and want to use it on a new computer (PC with another motherboard), it is not possible.
If you have a retail license (if you bought separately):
1 note your product key: use a program like Nirsoft Produkey to get
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/product_cd_key_viewer.html
2. on the old PC uninstall product key:
Start-> Accessories-> right click on command prompt and select "Run as Administrator"
slmgr.vbs /dlv---> to display the Activation ID for the installed version of Windows.
slmgr /upk---> where is the extracted string in the message box that appears in the previous step
3. on the new PC use this product key during installation or change it after installation
in the product key from the old computer with:
slmgr IPK, where is your product key. -
