How to remove or reset stored passwords for FTP site to Windows Explorer (Win XP)

In fact I use Windows XP but I couldn't find a forum for this more.

I have an FTP site, that I need to access regularly and his user name and password was stored for Windows Explorer could open it without asking for confirmation.  The user name & password have changed.  I deleted all the entries in my neighborhood network for the FTP site.  Still, he connects with the former name of user and password (UN/pw).  Access to this account is paralyzed, so I can't use it, but it get connected and so I know that he uses this UN/pw.  I tried to use the URL: ftp://user: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy * and it always goes back to the old UN/pw.  I don't want to delete all passwords that will allow 'Internet Options'.  How to clear it?

Hi Kev,

I had the same problem but with Win 7.  I got mine to work by looking for the FTP site in the registry and delete it.

Run regedit

Searched using EDIT , FIND , ftp.whatever.com , clicking SEARCH the NEXT

(Found in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Microsoft, FTP accounts )

Right click on the site FTP send me problems (ftp.whatever.com) and deleted.

Closed regedit.

Pulled up to Windows Explorer: problem solved.

You might want to give that a try.

  • How do you define a default value for ftp sites to always open with Windows Explorer (instead of Internet Explorer)?

    When I opened sites ftp from one of our other offices, I get a screen of login and password.  Then the site will automatically open in Internet Explorer.  So I go to the Page/open ftp site in Windows Explorer.  So I enter my login and password again.

    Is there a way to set a default value for ftp sites will automatically open in Windows Explorer, so I don't have to go through this all the time?

    Hello
    See:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/Askie/archive/2009/04/16/FTP-and-Internet-Explorer-what-to-do-what-to-do.aspx
    or
    Another solution: go to My Network Places > add network place. Follow it
    Wizard to add the FTP site. The URL format
    ftp://username: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy * should work.

  • How to remove and reset the Contacts folder / files in Vista Windows Mail

    How can I delete the Contacts in Vista - and actually reset the folder so that windows treats the files ".contact" as - good contact and no text.

    Because what was going on, I decided to try to start from scratch - I just copied all the files in the folder of contacts to a archive and deleted all the files in the contacts folder.

    From Windows Mail - I am capable of was able to use the tool 'Add to contacts' and the Contact form (properties) dialog happens - but if I open the Contacts folder directly (Windows or Windows Mail 'button'), I get a window of the typical Explorer with a newlt created contact list (for example there are 6 in there now all created from Windows Mail) - if I try to open an existing contact - it opens in the Notepad - text - garbage.  (Same problem I had)

    I've been setting up with a Contacts folder corrupted since I bought my desktop with Vista in 2008 - I think I looked into the question of import then and there is no function of CSV to import the contacts (that I could find) - and / or the inport corrupted the file - so when I open a file of contacts I get the text of the file - it opens in Notepad - and not a Contact form.

    With more than 600 contacts in there, I didn't have to manually retype all data, but it's time to bite the bullet.

    Hello PaulJMoore,

    ·         Do you have just copied the contacts in archive and did not export them?

    ·         What is the extension of the contact files you copied?

    You should try to reset the contacts folder.

    1. in Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder C:\Users\(user name) \Contacts.

    2. right click on an empty space in the main pane of the middle of the window and click Customize this folder.

    3. under the type of folder do you want, click the arrow next to the model list drop-down list.

    4. click on Contacts to select.

    NOTE: Check apply also this template to all subfolders if you want to change all subfolders in the Contacts folder to the Contacts model as well.

    5. click on OK.

    The contacts created with Windows Vista are in the format of .vlc. When you try to open them to the archived location where you saved, he would not be able to access Windows Mail to open the contacts.

    First of all try to copy all the contacts in the Contacts folder on the \Contacts C:\Users\(user name folder location).

    If this does not work, try to import all the contacts that you have saved to the location that is archived using the import option from the Windows Messaging.

    You can read this article which will give you information on how to import contacts:

  • I need to reset my password for my windows live account and I NEED TO SPEAK WITH A STAFF MEMBER IMMEDIATELY!

    I recently bought a NEW $ 400 Xbox 360 and I can not change my password to recover my gamertag Russolini11 because the email associated with the account is deleted.  I called 3 times and no one can help me! I have an old Xbox that I use now with my Russolini11 gamertag and it works fine.  I want to transfer everything to my new xbox but I can't change the password and I sent emails to the windows live team, and they can't help me because the enamel is associated with my former college Lakeland Community College - * address email is removed from the privacy *.  Someone please just reset my password for my account to windows live (* address email is removed from the privacy * and change the e-mail address to * address email is removed from the privacy * if you can not do that for me I plan to return my xbox for a PS3.)  I can't believe that microsoft live does not have a direct phone number to reach a live person, just absolutely ridiculous!

    Hi Zack'

    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you should have to change your password to recover your gamertag. However, if you have forgotten your password, then that's a different story. Also you should be dealing with xbox live support instead of windows live because they are the one who can access your account. Try xboxlive.com then go support here. I see that you have someone call you.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to reset the password for BIOS on Satellite A15-S127

    What is the best way to reset the password for boot/BIOS/CMOS on a Satellite A15-S127? I saw notes on the creation of a parallel loop, but I can't find the technical notes on how to make one. Even if I can make one, it will work on this model?

    I don't remember seeing "Clear CMOS" riders on the map and I heard that remove the CMOS battery does not reset the password if you need access to the BIOS later.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    I'm not sure of the A15, but as it is the American version of the A10, the BIOS password reset method should be the same. You need a special adapter PCMCIA. And the bad news: only Toshiba service people have this adapter. He must therefore go to a service partner.

You can then start the machine with the CD provided to reset the password to "pwadmin", and then sign in as 'pwadmin' and reset the password "admin" was from there.

  • Envy 17 Notebook PC E0K85UA #A: reset of password for BIOS

    How can I reset my password for the BIOS boot?

    Product: E0K85UA #ABA

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Enter the BIOS password incorrectly 3 times and it will generate an error code or system stop the code. Once the code is generate, use the link below to generate the reset code

    http://BIOS-PW.org/

    1. use the unlock code you generated to enter BIOS

    2 disable all passwords that are enabled in the Security menu of BIOS.

    3. If the request for current password - enter the unlock code

    4. for the new password, simply press the ENTER key

    5. repeat the same thing to check the password column.
