Locking in Windos XP system

What is procedure to unlock the locking under Windos XP system

If you're locked up by typing in the wrong password too many times, I believe that by default you is locked out for 30 minutes, after which it will unlock itself.  Of course, these default values may have been changed by an administrator.  If you can connect with any user, open a command prompt window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and enter the command:
net accounts
and it will show you the default values.

In this forum, Microsoft does not discuss security circumvention of the system, so you'll need to look elsewhere if that's what you need.

  • Pavilion 5000 series: locked out of operating system

    Desktop HP wil not boot Windows. I get a message stating that the drive on which Windows is installed is locked. This problem occurred shortly after downloading the OS of Windows 10. I discuss this issue in detail with a Microsoft representative and after exhusting many troubleshooting options concluded that I had to restore my computer to its factory settings. I can't access the image at all, and the image of the software on the Microsoft Web site is no longer usable by the machines purchased in a retail store. I bought my computer directly from HP via Amazon. This has happened a few months ago. I have been using a Linux OS as a temporary for solution. However, I run into problems of compatibility found and would like to have the Win7 (or Win10) operating system dos.

    Should I order a kit recovery or is their way I can download a Win7 of images on line? I have my 25 digit key.

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I read your post you need to restore your PC to its original state and wanted to help.

    What will work restores your computer to its original factory state using HP recovery media. It is a set of DVD and a CD or a USB key, which will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs.  You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.

    You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers

    Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update".  If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entty and click on order to press for more details.

    Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:

    If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1

    If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html

    NOTE: once you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to someone ' one - it can take a while!

    Note that if HP no longer provides a recovery media for your model, a few other sites, you can check are: http://www.computersurgeons.com/ and http://www.restoredisks.com/

    Good luck

    1. How can I connect to the SYS account despite the confinement. Is it because I have connected via external authentication?

    you are the owner of the HOUSE of the ORACLE, you need to connect. Yes its because of external authentication.
    Of course you can not connect the user to the system. Have you tried?

    2. don't lock the user SYS standard practice? If so, why?

    Depends on the security, some cases, a user will be created with DBA roles.

    I bought a Toshiba laptop that has shipped running Windows 7. The tech who sold me the computer says that it it will usher up to run XP.

I spent 4 times the price I could go buy a Windows 7 computer. I like the Toshiba laptops. I had many laptops over the years. Toshiba is the only one that I bought more than once. I want to continue to use my laptop. But it's a real pain that it crashes at least once a day sometimes three times a day. I heard that some computers running 7 lock. I heard there is a Patch of Lotus, but my tech do not think that he could solve the problem. There seems to be several reasons that can cause this problem.

    Unless you no more to buy a license to run Windows XP, have a license unused retail already or get a license downgrade rights (not sure that they have even more) - then you probably do not run Windows XP legitimately.

    In addition, unless the purchase Toshiba laptop is supported by Toshiba or the manufacturers of the individual components in this laptop IN Windows XP - you may have hardware because problems no device driver to load.

    There are a few elements that require Windows XP that will work perfectly in Windows 7 is run under Windows XP Mode (if you have or upgrade to Windows 7 Professional/Enterprise/Ultimate Edition).

    After reading your ad - my first suggestion: get a new 'tech '.

    Some computers running _ lock (insert any operating system and of the year and everything that you want in this empty - welcome to the real world.)

    Windows 7 is quite stable.  Probably all applications you have could be installed and configured in native Windows 7, mode of compatibility or in a virtual machine for Windows XP Mode to work correctly in a pure Windows 7 environment.  While I am pleased that your experience with Toshiba is good and I am not (not) they appreciate their loyalty so they give you big discounts (not) and excellent service (eventually - will not call this one) - but that's just the material and if they chose the hardware components (which are probably the same as in most Dells gateways) (, HPs, Lenovos, etc..) to run on an operating system that you are given correctly and they follow with the drivers - You ' l be fine running Windows 7.

    In any case - that said my peace there... Clean your computer and update the drivers.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  • All locked or disabled to restart user accounts

    I was faced with a problem with my user accounts getting locked out/disabled every time that I reboot my system. I can't start in safe mode, I can't run the system restore, I can't do anything but run a startup disk that will allow me to unlock locked accounts and remove the passwords so now that I'm stuck without the disc I'm totally locked out of my system.

    I am not connect to any network or something like that so they aren't locking me. I think it's Windows or a virus, but I've scanned several times my virus from the system.

    I realize maybe there's not much I can do until I have retrieve the boot disk, but I want to solve this problem, so it is not keep happening to me.
