Logging on to windows with a password that never gave

When I connect usually for WindowsXP my username is registered and I have not set a password. When I tried to log in Windows XP today he wanted a user name and password. I did and he said that "the system could not log. Make sure your username and domain are correct, then type your password again". I tried to start Windows in safe mode and it still doesn't work. Can someone please help?

  • Log on to Windows XP Professional password help

    Try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

    In addition, this forum has a policy that requires us to refuse assistance with password "cracking".

    That said, the last resort of reinstalling the operating system is something I would recommend to your situation. Who knows what kind of environment you might encounter if you can open a session? Software of Dodgy or pirated, malware, viruses etc. In addition, your hard drive may be full of useless data, including the possibility of illegal images. Must I say more? I see you say that you have no boot disk (I take it's Windows installation CD), but a repair shop may be able to do the replacement for you. Get a recommendation for a repair shop if you can.

    It is also possible that he has built in installation of recovery/re-uninstall. To learn more about this opportunity, we will need the brand and model of your PC.

  • Cannot connect on Windows, asking a password that has never been

    I never wanted a password in my PC.  Starting this week, I have a password that I never ask. Now, I can't do anything in the PC without the password I've ever had.  This is the case, try to get the icon of ESPN.  Microsoft Windows asks a password now in order to do the things I've done without it.  I can't stop my PC because it asks for a password when he wakes.  The Colombian who responded (paid) could not fix it and I'm stuck with it.  Need to take it to someone who really knows how to clean all passwords unless you help me...

    Hi Lourdes,

    Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft community. Sorry for the delay in responding. What version of the Windows operating system is installed? It's Windows Vista, Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or Windows 10? How many accounts user are there in the computer? What was any recent change in hardware or software on the computer?

  • Satellite A210-16f - after the BIOS update pops up a window with password

    Hello

    I tried to update the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite A210. I downloaded an update from the official site of Toshiba, and then I did everything according to the instructions.
    I've updated the BIOS under Windows.
    Update at the end, a massage "updated successfully" appeared and I just need turn on the computer again.
    So I did, and there was a problem.

    When I turn on my computer now, it shows me a blue window with a password. I don't know password.
    Maybe you know how to disable the password or you know some passwords for Toshiba which corresponding?

    Toshiba doesn t have a sort of universal password, and unfortunately, no one here can help you with this problem.
    I just hope that you have downloaded the good BIOS upgrade for your laptop model.

    The password can be removed by the Toshiba service provider. They can do it in 15 minutes.
    Sorry, but buddy I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it.

  • I forgot my windows XP administrator password and the returned solutions "access denied."

    I tried all of the following without success.

    Since your account invited > start > run Type "cmd".

    Once command prompt opens type

    NET user comments / add an administrator

    Press enter

    It works on computers pretty much all that I tried, it elevates the guest account to Administrator status, where you are free to edit and change things, that you must change.

    OR

    Since your account invited > start > run Type "cmd".

    Once command prompt opens type

    NET user administrator (or the name of your administrator account) *.

    Press enter

    You will now be able to enter a password for this account. Confirm the password and Voila! You should now be able to log on to your account with the password that you set.

    OR

    System startup and when you see the home screen, press ctrl + alt + delete twice and it'll show a connection box. Now type administrator username and leave empty Pword. Now, press Enter and you should be able to open a session.

    Now you can reset your password from the control panel and user accounts.

    OR

    Enter SafeMode to restart the computer and press f8 repeatedly until a screen somes up which gives you a few options, use the arrow keys to the forts of the 'start windows in safe mode' when you start windows in safe mode, you will see a new account on the login screen, titled administrator , click on it, there is no password (unless you have changed it).

    I stopped to receive mail after December 31.  It indicates that the computer cannot connect to my account but when I log in with my password I get the message "this account already exists." How can I get my email account to work again?

    MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan

    First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

    From the Mail menu bar, you select

    ▹ Connection Doctor window

    In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

    Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

  • Urgent: Cannot log on to Windows 8! "" Your PC is offline. " Please sign in with the last password used on this PC"

    I use W8 for months and all of a sudden, while traveling, I can't connect to my computer. I get the error "your PC is offline.". Please sign in with the last password used on this computer. "I am sure that I use the password. I have a flash drive and another laptop (Running OS X) at my disposal. What should I do to access my laptop?
    I don't have access to my local network, or any network besides.
    I have not recently changed password. I can't restore or refresh because it requires the password and says that isn't true. I never installed webroot or anything of that kind.
    Results in the same number safe mode.
    I can't connect to my Live account with my phone just fine.
    I do not have a local account.
    It's ridiculous and absurd oblivion by Microsoft. I'll be away a network known for a week and have literally no access to my computer. I would like to take this opportunity to warn all users of Windows 8 to make sure that they USE LOCAL ACCOUNTS. DO NOT USE DIRECT REPRESENTS WINDOWS 8, BECAUSE IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU AND YOU CANNOT CONNECT TO A WELL-KNOWN. NETWORK, YOU WILL BE LOCKED.
    I am aware that there are discussions on this topic, but I want to throw oil on the fire, so to speak, because as far as I know, there is no solution.

    * EDIT *.
    The only solution is to connect to a known network. If you are not able to connect to a known network, you can not connect, simple as that. It's a big bug for sure. I repeat, change your account to a local account to avoid this problem.

    So I solved this problem, but unfortunately, it was as bad as I thought. As I thought, you need to connect to a network "Known", and then try to connect. It should work. If you are not near a network known (as if I was), as far as I know, there is no solution. To avoid this, change your account to a "Local" account

    My theory for the problem is the following:
    When you connect using a Live account, the password is saved locally and on the network. If you are connected to a network, it verifies the password that you enter the password stored on the network. If they match, it will allow one, sign in. If you are disconnected from the network, Windows attempts to match the password online, realizes he cannot, then checks the local password. Somehow, in my case, the password locally must have been changed or deleted and so the password entered always was "Incorrect."
    So yes, big problem, I'm sure the solution is quite simple, but in the meantime, use a local account to prevent this. I was stranded, and it was a huge headache and cost me many hours of work.

  • My Windows ID and the password that is required to accelerate when trying to convert money files

    When trying to convert money to accelerate since the money, more online services, he asked my ID of windows (which I guess is my email address * address email is removed from the privacy *) and password. I tried to request a password reset through windows but Messenger who did do the trick. Appreciate your help in this matter.

    Hello raylav,

    You should be able to dissassociate ID of your Windows with your silver account.

    Disconnect from the Internet. Open Money Plus or Money 2007, by logging in to your Money file in offline mode. Remove the Windows LiveID via password manager. You should now be able to connect to your Bank and financial institutions again.  Close Money. Reconnect to the Internet. Verify that the removal was successful

    If this does not work for you, I suggest you just go to the website of MS Money to ask questions, because they have the experts it in MS Money.
