I forgot Aministrator password for my computer Dell laptop with Home Premium of windows operating systems 7, how can I recover the password or open my knees without formatting system. I'm tired in safe mode but it keeps ask password as signed on this system as an administrator. Kindly advice.

There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • 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 (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    If you are unable to connect to Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you can use the Windows Vista System Restore feature, or the Windows 7 system restore feature.

    You may be unable to connect to Windows Vista or Windows 7 in the following scenarios:

    • 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.
    • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

  • I created my computer as an administrator and I don't want that. How I got to where I shouldn't enter an admin password..

    When I fist set up my computer. I put it with an administrator account. I don't want that. When I registered the computer somehow I finished with an administrator account. Can you help me. This isn't a business computor, I use it for home only.

    Even if it's a single home computer, it requires an administrator account (for things such as the installation of programs and other functions limited to administrators - and there are some even if you have not met a lot yet because you're using an administrator account - and if you think you are too often prompted for your administrator password now) wait until you prefer to use a standard user account).  This has nothing to do with the use you make of your computer.  You don't want to remove or change your account administrator only because believe me, you'll need (and probably sooner than you think).  It is perfectly fine to use a standard account for your work daily (in fact, it is recommended for security reasons) but you still need the administrator account (in fact, I would create two just to be sure, we become not corrupt or otherwise unusable and then you'll be stuck).

    Once you have created the new administrator account (do that first or you won't be able to create with your standard user account administrator accounts), and then navigate to your current administrator account and change to a standard user who is how say you you want account.

    'S all done it at the start / Control Panel / user accounts.  Click Add account to add new accounts to administrator (with their passwords).  Click on manage a current account to find your 'administrator' account and click on it and click on change type, and then check standard user.  You from time to time can be requested for your password (in particular in the connection but we can change that if you want, but I strongly discouraged for safety reasons - but rarely any other time for a standard user account) and the only way I know to avoid this problem (or bypass it) is to remove the password (set it as nothing) and then you don't have to enter anything (but "it is not good for security reasons).  Whenever you do something that requires an administrator (like install a program, or many other things - for most configuration changes or modification of the system), we will ask for the administrator password and there is no way around that (again unless you delete the password and it's an even worse idea for an administrator account).  This will happen a lot more often now that your main account is a standard user account.  You may need to reboot for these changes to take effect.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
