I have a problem with the password admin on XP/SPe

When the computer that I use now was bought a few years ago for my husband, he created an administrator with a password account. He did not have a password reset disk that I can find (he died a few years ago) and its index for the password means nothing to me. I know that I can reinstall the sys op but who loses a lot of put the info that I don't know and would not be able to restore.

I guess I have two questions:

1. is it possible, other than of the reinstall, to pass the admin password so that I can connect to the admin account?

2. If I export my settings to transfer them to my new computer Win7, with the admin password transfer to the new system?

Unfortunately, the only way to change the password for the admin on a computer is with specialized programs that are generally not available. If someone you know IT, they are able to help you.

Are you using another user account and just have not tried the admin account in the last couple years?

  • I have a problem with the password on the virtual machine.

    Original title: passwords & Windows 7 virtual machines

    Hello

    I am running windows 7 pro 32 bit, with a windows XP virtual to develop existing software.

    The hosts & VM connect to a file on the network server. The file server is running windows XP, the network is a simple working group. I've manually created a limited user on the file server with the same name and password as my logon to windows 7.

    Today, I changed my password to connect to windows 7, which I am not as often as the security people recommend that I do. I changed the password on the file server to synchronize and also the password on the virtual computer.

    The virtual machine is maintaining however, somewhere the old password, which crashes, and I get the logon screen. If I enter the new password it connects then. I went into the settings of the VPC and delete the credentials saved, without effect. I removed "enable on startup" of integration features, also without effect.

    So I get the password in the VPC, but then I have to enter the password to access the network share. Or I can enter the password each time I start the virtual machine. The second is less painful, but still annoying.

    Any thoughts?

    Could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

    Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

    Any improvement?

    If the problem persists in Mode without failure, could reinstall you Firefox in this way:

    (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 38.0.5 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (2) close Firefox (if applicable).

    (3) to rename the program folder, either:

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox

    I have a problem with the numbers. I am trying to create a formula that can add a cell only when another cell with a pop-up menu returns on a specific pop.  I can't ignore the cell if it is not on specific pop upward.

    assuming the cell with pop's cell A1

    NO.

    MAYBE

    You can add the value in cell A2 when the context menu is 'YES' like this

    = if(A1="YES", A2, "") +.

    where is the expression that adds other cells if you want

    could be another cell
