  • All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile.

    All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile. Any ideas, anyone?

    So it's not a logins.json file?

    I see a signons3.txt file and a file signons.sqlite older, if you can try to see if you can import passwords stored in this file.

    You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the file logins.json with the following steps:

    • reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
    • Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder

    When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true.
    You have passwords that are imported in the password manager, unless there were errors or signons.sqlite signons3.txt.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

  • Windows Vista login password lost - how to get around?

    Hello

    I managed to forget my login password for my account, so I can't bypass the connection now. Is it possible so I can restore my password? My account has administrator rights.

    There are many ways to 'restore' a lost windows password... But I guess that you are not involved in anything like that, so it is quite difficult to explain. Takes a long time. You have sensitive data on your account? Otherwise I would advice you to reinstall windows. If you have sensitive data, you can try to take your hard drive to another computer and make an account on which now bears the same name as yours. You may be able to copy your data then.

    Use a third-party program to attempt to reset / recover password

    HP, like most other companies, do not support the use of third-party applications, but they do exist. If you cannot use one of the options mentioned previous then this is may be the option you want to try.

    Removal and recovery of password programs exist and can be found on the internet through various searches on google.

    One of these programs can be found here http://www.pcloginnow.com/ with instructions on how to use it here http://www.pcloginnow.com/guide.html

    Remember that HP mentioned earlier does not support the use of third-party software to retrieve lost passwords, and then you use this tool or any other tool at your own risk.

  • should I really a complex login password?

    I use a laptop while attending night school to get a higher degree of security of Information systems. One of the things that briefly covered in course of last night is on the recovery of the lost Windows login passwords, as well as their reset. Given that we have actually demonstrated how to get into such a system, and as such, the tools are available pretty much everyone around me, is there much of a point using a hard-to-remember, hard to type complex login password? A simple (but hard to guess by humans, although easily broken by l0phtcrack) easy to type and remember password discourage someone by chance loggin and trapping me or do things, but anyone who would be committed to participate in the school has the tools and knowledge to do so.

    They boot CD, crackers, etc. I put a BIOS password, I think that there are ways around this. I know that there are jobs, I've just never bothered to investigate a laptop.

    In light of this, it is really worth the aggravation to use these complex passwords on my laptop? I want to store anything of value on the laptop. Just about everything what I record is stored on a flash drive, anyway, and I have my browser remember not the words of past value.

    The laptop is also old enough that few people will want to fly for the material.

    Hello

    Login and password BIOS is not enhanced security measures. For the most part, they stop the curious. In fact you do not have
    must have a password of connection at all and the system boots directly to the desktop of the default user.

    If you need security for important data then the encryption of files and folders, and could even the entire disk
    be used.

  • Lost my password synchronization

    I use Firefox for android and every now and then I clear Firefox completely app data because it starts to become slow for some reason any (even without addons). I just did this again an hour or two after a few months of no problems there. Since it's been a while, the password I thought I used for the synchronization did not work and this is the case with the e-mail provider that I use, so why I can't retrieve my password from there. I contacted them to see if I can recover my word of past, but incase that doesn't work, I'm asking here. I have a vague idea of what should be the password, if this is useful. The account associated with the synchro is [email protected]. Thank you.

    Hello, the encryption key derived from your password is the only way to access and decrypt your data sync (there is no other way, even for mozilla).
    If you have lost your password it will be not possible to recover these data, even on a password reset (which will wipe existing data on servers in sync).

  • How can I delete a combination login/password individual for one Web site? (Android)

    Let's say I have use a hotspot with a Web portal to connect to it on a regular basis (in my case, hotsplots). Connections are valid only for a certain period of time, so after a while, I need a new login and password. FF (latest version of Android, current Nexus 4) recorded it for me, but after a while, the drop-down list with all the login/password combinations took so long, it's hard to remember that it is the active connection and soon the list is longer as the size of the screen allows. I don't see a way to remove a login/password unique for an individual site, google search gave no results to my surprise. Please let me know if there is a case for bugzilla, I'd be happy of the present.

    True, but it is a workaround - and since some data private revelations are not as confidential as it may seem, I am hesitant to install third-party applications. I'll mark this as resolved issue and request a feature to the dev team - thank you.

  • Satellite A300D - 18 H - Forgot login password for Vista

    Daughter has forgotten its login password Vista for its Satellite A300D 18 H.
    Is there a way to recover the password, and if so what is the best way?

    Thank you!

    There are ways to reset the password to a blank password. I don't think that Toshiba would allow us to post tools like this on the forum, so having a search in google.

    Another solution would be to fix the HARD drive on another PC using a USB adapter, copy your documents and other important files, then put the HARD return drive to perform the recovery and then copy backup your files/documents.
