I forgot my windows 7 home prieum admin password?

I tried to open it with safe mode, but there was that my admin account no other. Please tell me the solution & I can not format my window there a lot of important documents.

You cannot reinstall Windows 7 without formatting the computer:

Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

You will receive the following warning:

The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

(At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

Invited by the UAC of Windows to type the Admin password but don't give me a place to enter.  My computer cannot even upward with out having to buy pass this fast.  Help.!

    It's because, apparently, there is no administrator account.
    If and only if, there is account admin on your system Windows will allow the built in (if not already enabled) administrator account if you start Sate mode.  Use the main administrator account to activate admin at least a user account.  Restore your admin account or create a new admin account.   You must keep at least one active admin account to manage your computer.  A supplement is even better.

  • After doing a system restore factory on my toshiba satellite when my windows screen it asking admin password I tried the old but it won't work but I can get on in safe mode please help

    It is a toshiba satelliteL505D-Ls5001

    When you perform a factory restore then all passwords are cleared and you are prompted for an account name (that you choose) and his password.

    If you are prompted for a password to an existing account, then you don't have a factory restore. Maybe you did a Windows restore to a Restore Point, in which case the password is the one that was current when the Restore Point was created.

    If you can get in Mode safe under an admin account you can reset any desired password.

  • OfficeJet 6700: upgrade after Windows 10 - locked by admin password

    After the upgrade to Windows 10 all functions under "Settings" are locked and the error indicates "this function has been locked by your system administrator or the person setting up the printer" I have never implemented or locked these functions. I understand that it is a known HP printer after upgrade to Windows 10 error. Restoring default values does not either because the feature is locked. I need to fix this or get a new printer from another provider, thanks.

    Hi @VIKING00,

    I can honestly say I have not heard this before going on as a result of any upgrade, but that being said, I've heard of the error, "this function has been locked by your system administrator or the person setting up the printer" and I am confident, I can help you.

    rather than restoring to factory settings, I would like to reset the printer completely. I'll send you a PM (private Message), but before I do, please see the HP Privacy Statement.

    This privacy statement informs you of our privacy practices and the choices you can make about the way information about you and your online activity is collected and how that information is used. This statement is available on our homepage at the bottom of each web page of HP and HP.com.

    There are a growing number of messages in this forum and elsewhere in the internet with the steps to do a reset on different printers.  Reset to will sometimes fix problems, so resetting is not the issue.

    A few resets require you to enter key combinations to open special menus on your printer that you were supposed to never access.  These special menus are used by developers and staff support for debugging of problems, but they are not intended for inexperienced users and can have unexpected results.  A wrong button push and you might no longer have a printer, but rather an expensive paper weight.  On top of that, if you happen to the 'brick' the printer in this way, it is considered as customer induced damage and voids the warranty automatically. These resets are only intended to be distributed and used as a last resort and under the direct instruction of a representative of the HP technical support. They should not be made lightly!

    Thanks in advance

    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 CD.
    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.

    Since you do not burn a CD to repair Windows, you will need to ask a friend to burn you. It takes less than five minutes through Control Panel / backup and restore.

  • The installation of some software requires admin password I've ever used

    Installation of some software requires the admin password, I've ever used.

    Until this two apps will not install on Windows Vista PC, without admin password.

    Ever need before and it's been several years that laptop has been obtained.

    Never needed before.

    One is an upgrade of the software that did not before.

    Any ideas?

    Installation of App still requires a user account to be an administrator. If you are not currently logged as long as administrator, then you need to switch to an administrator account. Otherwise if you are currently on an Admin account, there could be some problems as to what may cause this.

    Can you provide information on the following:

    1 when was the last time you were able to install something in your PC?

    2. have you made any changes to the computer?

    Thank you

    My windows XP is restarting frequently and not allow me to connect... So I tried to fix my Windows xp using the recovery option... but to use this option, I need Admin password that I forgot. Please help me to overcome this problem...

    You could look at this http://www.ubcd4win.com/howto.htm

    If you do this, you should be able to do a system restore to a few days ago.

    Or even better yet, in the boot for cd menu, go to Offline NT Password & registry Editor, and press ENTER.  Then let it boot and select your windows partition (if one only, there should be one [1] right next to the slider.) Press ENTER.  Unless you have a different path, press ENTER, and then press ENTER.  Press enter once more. Now, select the administrator account and press on enter and clear the password (number 1) to clear the password. Then type in one!, hit enter, type q and press ENTER, type Y and press ENTER. If it says complete edition, press on enter, equip you XP CD and press Ctrl Alt Delete.   Now, restart in your installation cd and enter the password as nothing.
