No dialog for password

Hello

I'm in a coffee right now & to use its wi - fi (which I did 100 times in the past). I know the password & the location is one of my connections wireless in the area. But I can't connect.

Only I can not connect, I get even a dialog box asking me to enter a password. Instead, I get this message of security certificate.

So I decided to remove the location & start, restart and see if my computer has detected the hotspot. But I'm unable to remove or delete the location. No dialog comes even to the top.

I use Windows Vista, as if I was when I used to come here (since 2007). My computer is a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC.

Can you help me?

Hello

·          What is the message you get on the certificate of security that pop - up when you try to connect?

·          Remember to make changes to the computer?

Temporarily, you can try to disable the firewall and security software and check if you can connect to the network.

Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Windows 8 Remote Desktop keeps asking for password wifi

    recently I reset my wifi network id and password.  After this "implementation of windows remote desktop 8" keeps poping up asking wifi password. It happens like every five seconds when I'm connected to the internet. After you enter the password and click ok, it happens again! I can't really do anything like pages Web surfing or watching youtube videos.  The only way to stop it is to disconnect from the internet.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Jing,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience you encounter with guests Remote Office for password. I will certainly help you in this matter.

    Sometimes, this problem occurs if you don't have a password set for your local administrative user account. To set a password, you can press the key combination CTRL + ALT + DELETE on the screen, click change password, type and confirm the password.

    Login again and try to enter the WiFi password. Check if the number is reproduced.

    Alternatively, if you do use Remote Desktop, you can try to disable the remote desktop in system properties and check if it helps.

    1. Press Windows key + R.
    2. In the Run dialog box, type SystemPropertiesRemote.exe , and then press ENTER.
    3. Unlike what allows the connection, select don't allow connections to this computer remotely.
    4. Click OK.

    NOTE: You can always activate the setting by clicking on the option allow in step 3.

  • iPhone keeps asking for password hotmail (iOS 10)

    Hello

    I had this problem since upgrading to iOS iOS 10 9. I have 3 accounts hotmail on the iphone, once I get the password it will work properly for a period of time (usually one day) and then ask for passwords with a message indicating an error has occurred and iOS needs approval from hotmail again.

    I noticed that this often happens when I wake up in the morning and I haven't used the iPhone for a few hours. This problem never arose on iOS 9. I've recently updated the iPhone 6 7 and the problem persists.

    Is this a bug of iOS 10? I also tried to delete all my accounts and adding them again without success. My accounts do not use a two-step verification.

    I am currently using iOS on iPhone 10.0.2 7

    Hotmail is notoriously buggy.  For years.  Have you tried their forum for iOS 10 compatibility issues?  There may be suggestions from there.

    Best,

  • Thunderbird, constantly asking for passwords by e-mail

    Thunderbird has worked for years OK but recently decided to ask for passwords of e-mail, and then ask again, several times, even though I told it to remember using pw Manager. When pw is given, he just keeps asking until I have abandon. Receives emails from Gmail, but I can't send Tbird. No problem with gmail itself as I can connect directly and send and receive mail, but then I get a message from gmail on Tbird telling me that I just connected via my browser. All very disappointing.

    most common cause defective or reach products anti antivirus.

    Restart Thunderbird with disabled modules (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click "restart with disabled modules. If Thunderbird works as usual, there is an add-on or theme interfere with normal operations. You will need to reactivate the modules one at a time until you locate the offender.

    If the safe mode for the operating system to resolve the problem, there are other software on your computer that is causing problems. The possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as updates of the program.

    The other option is that your provider has changed the parameters required to connect.

  • Repetitive requests for password

    I use AOL mail. Thunderbird has recently begun repeatedly asking for passwords, even if they are registered. Sometimes clicking on try again or x'ing out seems to let go of the front. I go to pop IMAP so don't know if that's part of the problem. It happens randomly and especially if I select a saved folder. I even deleted Thunderbird and related files appdata and did a new download to reinstall. The problem still occurs. I experienced it with my laptop so I think it's a problem of Thunderbird, but must cease to use Thunderbird if it continues. Wouldn't do that I have used the program for years and have really enjoyed.

    I think I solved the problem. I started to think that if the retry might work after a while then Thunderbird was perhaps not allowing enough time for AOL to connect and answer. I opened the configuration manager and looked for a timeout entered and found that mail Server timeouts have been all set to 29. I doubled all 60 and Thunderbird seems today is behaving properly.

    As this is a recent problem, I don't know if the response time of AOL has slowed or if a recent update to Thunderbird changed the default value of AOL. Anyway, I think that the answer so for Mozilla increase the default time-out for AOL e-mail.

    Thank you for the reply christ1. It does not solve the problem, but it did get me thinking about the question of speed between Thunderbird and AOL and this led me to the solution.

  • Slick graphic email asking for passwords

    I know that windows live team does not ask for passwords, but I received an email so smooth, that everyone would be fooled by the latter. It's Msn-Live-Hotmail Curtomer CareTMR advertising new ways to connect.  "Windows live Essentials never ceases to evolve with two fun new features, great for the holidays"

    Hi RichardSharkey,

    You have antivirus software installed on your computer?

    It seems that the email sent to you likely spam in itself. I would recommend you not to reveal personal information if you receive such an email in the future.

    You can report abuse or Spam in Windows Live Hotmail in this link.

    http://www.windowslivehelp.com/solution.aspx?SolutionID=e1e87293-909F-45E9-9dcd-920a04719bc3

    (a) I would also recommend to run a virus scan online from the link given below and check if the problem persists.

    Microsoft safety scanner

    If you already have an antivirus installed on your computer software, it is very important to maintain regularly updated with the latest updates (usually called definition files) that help the tool identify and remove the latest threats.

    (b) you can also download & run Microsoft Security Essentials on your computer.

  • Windows 7 does not ask for password when password protected sharing is on.

    Hi guys,.

    I'm no stranger to permissions etc as I work in it, but it confused me after 4 hours of messing around.

    I'm trying to make sure that when I share a file on my home network that windows requires a password in order to access what it is not doing.

    The following conditions are true for both machines:

    Are windows 7 Home premium

    Have file sharing enabled on each respective network adapter

    Are members of the home network

    Are both on the network, called "WORKING group".

    Assistant file sharing was turned on and off then to make sure it wasn't an influence, it is currently off as he auto-actions the user root folder.

    Network discovery is on

    File sharing and printer is on

    I tried the two combinations of sharing folders public or not, but is currently disabled.

    Streaming media is off

    Password protected sharing is on

    Tried the two combinations of user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers. (This is currently set to allow windows to manage)

    So I won't list them the public parameters are not relevant.

    I put one hand on my laptop remove 'Everyone' and 'administrators' only have my own authorized account which is be an administrator.

    My other machine but I still seem to be able to open and access the folder. I tried to change advanced sharing permissions and security settings to exclude any group that can be let my other pc on the network but so far still no prompt for password.

    I even went to regedit and apply the following on both machines:

    1. Open Registry Editor (Start search - regedit)
    2. navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    3. create a new DWORD value with the following properties: NAME: LmCompatibilityLevel
    VALUE: 1
    4 reboot your PC and try again to establish the connection.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you people!

    I think I've cracked the question:

    I created a new account admin on my PC and the first time I tried to access anything, I got the password. I don't have it a second time.

    I then removed and put in the passwords and then disconnected cache and back in and asked again the password.

    I tried the same thing on my other account, but it has not yet requested.

    It turns out that even on another computer, if you have the same username and password that it automatically authorizes for good once you enter the network password first.
