• I need to change the administrator password

  My husband was the administrator of our computer and he died in June.  I don't know what it is.  I never needed to know because he took care of everything.  How to change or find out what it is.  The system restore disk will do it

  Hello

  The system restore disk will not help you find the password. Unfortunately, you cannot change the password without knowing the administrator password. If you have another
  account administrator on the computer, then you can log in to that account and change the password from there. Since you have a restore disc, you can reinstall Windows and
  start all over again.

• Need to enter the administrator password before I can download the software upgrade

  I found I need to install an upgrade of the software, but cannot do without an ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD ... which I don't have (or I had not one when I implemented that stand-alone pc, or I forgot whether I don't have an administrator password to use).

  Can someone tell me how to find what it is, how to change it, or how to make my normal "logon" Administrator status (without having to set an administrator password, because that's the problem I have).

  I tried various methods, but everyone tells me that I need the ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD and so I'm stuck.

  I've seen a lot of suggestions for the windows password (which I guess is different for the ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD), because none of the suggestions for this work without an administrator password.

  Hello Jules.

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

  1. is the issue specific to the installation of software updates?
  2. what troubleshooting have you done when you say, 'I have tried different methods?

  Thank you for details on the question and your efforts to resolve.

  This problem may occur either if the user account control settings can not correct because of where it stops installation or there is a problem with the registry keys that control the installation of a program.

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:
  Run this Microsoft fixit and check.
  Reference:
  The problems that the programs cannot be installed or uninstalled
  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall

  If this does not help, use method 2.

  Method 2:
  Disable user account control and then try to install the software updates.
  Reference:
  Disable UAC in Windows 8
  http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hyperyash/archive/2012/07/18/disabling-user-account-control-in-Windows-8.aspx

  Important notes:

  Control (UAC) user account can help you to prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. It works by asking permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings affecting other users. We do not recommend disable user account control. If you turn it off, you must reactivate as soon as possible.

  Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  I hope this information helps.

  Please let us know if you need more help.

  Unfortunately, we are not allowed to provide assistance of password cracking. However, by default Windows administrator account is hidden subject to a new account with administrative privileges has been created. Start the computer in Safe Mode. If an additional admin account has been created, you will be presented with the option to choose the default Administrator account. You can choose to log in to this account and if no password has been set for this account, you can use it to remove passwords for other accounts. Otherwise, you will need to use Google to find an answer.

• Need to enter the administrator password to click on Yes to UAC

  When I need to update a program or otherwise need a program to gain access to my computer, I get the UAC dialog box.  This part is normal.  For the last month, the Yes button is not available without a password.  I've never set up an administrator password!  How do I get this cleared up?

  Original title: administrator password

  I've never set up an administrator password!

  Yes, you did. When you have loaded Windows for the first time you have been prompted for the name of an account and a password. This account was created as an administrator account. This is the account that you now use.

• Need to change the administrator password

  Hi I have a hp laptop with fingerprint digital digital persona. I have an administrator account and a standard user account. I guess I forgot my password. IM able to login as an administrator with my mark, but I don't remember the actual password. Is that what I can do to change the password?

  Here you go:

  1. Connect with your fingerprint reader.
  2. Click the start planet.
  3. Type cmd.exe in the search box.
  4. Press Ctrl + Shift + Enter
  5. Click on "Run as Administrator".
  6. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     NET user "user %%nom" 123456
     (This will set your password to 123456)
  7. Plan ahead a little and create, test, and document an alternative admin account, even though you have a spare House key. Have a single administrator account is high-risk stuff.

• I need help to change the administrative password

  How can I change the administrative password when the computer was a gift and I do not know the password. I need the password to set anything in the computer, including the time?

  Can you log on under an admin account - any admin account? If this isn't the case, then you must ask the former owner for the password.

  Hello

  "What to do if you forget your password Windows 8/8.1"

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/what-do-forget-Windows-password#1TC=Windows-8

  If you have forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to recover or reset:

  • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.

  • If you use a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more information, see the Web to reset your password page.

  • If you use a local account, use your index of password as a reminder.

  If you've tried these suggestions and still unable to connect:

  • If you have Windows 8.1, you will need to reinstall Windows.

  • If you have Windows RT 8.1, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your PC.

• How to replace or change the administrator password.

  Original title: I've got a helping hand me down from the laptop. The previous owner was also the administrator. She forgets all THE passwords.

  Please help if you can tell me how can I know or overide the administrator password and the password of the office she now had on users page where you select the user who will use the laptop. As you can see, I'm not computer very warned, I am on SSI and was thrilled to have the laptop to help me but I can't get the passwords I need to help remove, install or difficulty of the programs, files and as I manage problems. I try to install or uninstall something or the computer tells me that I have to do something and then the administrator password is necessary. I went to the Helpdesk and they were very useful for what they could do for free and it can all work but I can't access anything until I can log on to the Office of the administrator first, then do as I was directed by Microsoft Help Desk. Anyone who could help me I would be happy because I can't afford to take it to a professional. And I have no idea how to get around the administrator passwords. I looked for administrator password forgotten, but he did not come. I need to access any of the password for the administrator Office, and then I could get into some other areas or try the Help Desk tells me. Or if anyone knows how to do all this, I had like to hear on your part, thank you.
