  Hello ladyfire,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

  I enclose a link below that is specifically for this issue.  Please let me know if you still experience problems, or if the problem is resolved.  How to use system restore to log in Windows Vista when you lose access to an account.  If you are unable to connect to Windows Vista, you can use the Windows Vista System Restore feature.

  You may be unable to connect to Windows Vista in the following scenarios:

  • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
  • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
  • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
  • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

• How to remove an old password protected administrator account on Windows 7?

  I inherited a laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium on which someone has left the protected by password administrator account they created.  There is a notion of past protected standard user account that I can play with, but I don't have the ability to change the type of account, etc.  Can I get around this without spending money on software or technician?

  Your best bet is to perform a destructive factory restore. You do not know what is hidden on this machine (perhaps unknown to the former owner) and you might be in for a few surprises. Consult the manufacturer's web page for detailed instructions. This will also solve the problem of 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.

• Something happened to my accounts on a Dell with Windows XP (SP3) laptop and it no longer recognizes my user account password

  How to connect to myy computer without knowing the password for user account?

  Hello

  Just a thought...

  Is your keypad double up with some of the letter keys? If so, you can inadvertently turning on the keypad. There is normally a "switch" by one of your Fn keys to do - find a symbol of pad on the Fn keys.

  It is also possible, I suppose, but less likely, that you may have entered the passwords with the active keypad and it is now inactive. If this is the case then I would recommend changing your passwords to be what you wanted in the first place.

• Can you stop new setting up user accounts?

  Anyone know if I can stop my son from making a new user account on his laptop?

  Take control of the laptop with a password protected administrator account. Create an account for your son. If he cracks then your password, which is very simple with the right software, completely take over the laptop.

• I can't log on my user account

  Someone recently infected my computer with a Remote Administration tool and ran the command 'net user Olly/delete' while I was disconnected, they then added a password protected user and restarted my pc.

  They asked me money in Exchange for password, which was simple, I've just entered the CMD in safe mode and delete this user. Now, I have all my files from my user but I can't connect to it as far as I know.

  So that's where in C:\Users\ but it is not there in the log on screen

  Here you go:
  1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
  2. select Repair from the menu.
  3. Select an administrator account, and then enter its password.
  4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  5. set Windows to a point, until the computer has been infected.
  6. plan in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key.
  7. think carefully how your computer has been infected, and then apply that knowledge to prevent future infections.

• How to get back my full and indisputable administrator rights and privileges back as if it was before on my user account

  Well, for starters, I use a HP Pavilion G6 and it runs Windows 7 Home Premium OS.

  Well, I personally did the implementation of the PC and fact my user account on the system (with full administrator privileges) while I'm my songs and other stuff on it, well, I share the PC with my sister (she is not to do much with it except video games and songs), yes as I had my stuff on the PC , I noticed that could be considered my user account from my sister stuff, just double click on it (I did its standard user account), that worried me, I mean what was the point of password protecting the account if one day she'll find my user folder and just to open and access all my stuff? So I decided to remove a few rights (I couldn't find a way to his lock out of my user folder. Honestly, I thought I was doing the right thing, well I saw properties of my user folder, go to the Security section and well refused all access features to the (to change to call you) personally I expected to block his access to my stuff, but he finished only take stuff on the desk and me to my own account lockout.

  I found a way and used the administrator (surprisingly, I thought I was administrator since I did the setting in (I know there is a default Administrator account and a few others for things far from MS).) So I did it, in a way of to return, my rights and my stuff back, but now it seems that I'm not admin, all I want to do requires an admin who don't have troubled me some time ago, I went to the local disk properties and made sure that I had all access on my user account , but no, something is still not back to normal.

  The result is, I want to just that my account of the way he has been, with full administrator privileges and everything, without requiring me this user or that, to be the boss.

  Oh, and the My Music folder is not too just need admin just before you do anything in, I went to its security properties, and it allows me to check full access.

  I really need help everyone, could help you?

  I want my account respected as an administrator again.

  2. select Repair from the menu.
  3. Select an administrator account, and then enter its password.
  4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  5. set Windows to a point before this problem occurred.

• How can I permamnetly delete the user account in Windows xp?

  How can I permamnetly delete the user account in Windows xp?

  1. 1

     Go to the control panel. There are several ways to do this, but the most common is to go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Control Panel" on the right side. Follow whatever it is more convenient for you.

     
  2. 2

     Click on "user accounts" in the window that appears. Or, you see the standard view (with lines of icons) or the display of the categories (which is explicit). Both have a shortcut to the user accounts Control Panel.

     
  3. 3

     If a control panel is not yet made, click the 'user accounts' Panel at the bottom of the window. If so, you can skip this step.

     
  4. 4

     Click the link you want to get rid of any user account.

     
  5. 5

     The next window will have a list of actions you can do for the user account, one of which will be "remove account". It is the action that you'll want to click on.

     
  6. 6

     The last window that you will see will ask you if you want to keep the soon-to-be-used user represents the files in a folder on your desktop. It's your choice here.

     
     • If you have already backed up all important data on this user account, you can safely click on 'delete files '.
     • If you do not, you must click "keep files".

• User account control problems

  MY ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN DELETED SOMEHOW. WHEN ANOTHER ACCOUNT IS OPEN AND WE ARE TRYING TO REMOVE A PROGRAM OR START SYSTEM RESTORE THE USER ACCOUNT CONTROL BOX NOW COMES UP TO ASK PERMISSION TO CONTINUE. WE CANNOT ENTER ANY PASSWORD. USER ACCOUNT CONTROL IS TURN OFF MY COMPUTER. HELP PLEASE!

  The first thing to try is go to Safe Mode to see if the disabled built-in Administrator account normally is now available. Enter Safe Mode by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Use your arrow key to select Safe mode, and then press the Enter key. If you see an icon for the administrator on the Welcome screen, log into this account and make your changes. Follow the recommendations for setting up the accounts of user below.

  If you do not see an icon for the administrator mode without failure, post back for further instructions.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

• I can't get on my computer as an administrator. He asks me a password which has been never implemented. My winows user account has never been password protected. I am trying to transfer my files and photos

  My windows user account is not allowing me to log in. He asks a password that has never served on this user account. This account is the administrator and I am unable to exercise the functions of don't. I'm looking to reset the password for this user account. There is no other directors on this computer

  This is often caused by malware infection, then when you get home it would be wise to do a scan.

  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  You can change your password to something you remember (or use a white) another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

  All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

  If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
  NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

  If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

  Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

  Exit the command prompt.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

• Remove or disable the protection password for the user account

  I have two accounts on my computer to my name. One is an administrator account. The other is a local account. I use the local one for all my general purpose computer. The administrator of one I use only to make changes. I created a password for what I believed to be the administrator account. Actually, I created a password for my local account. Now, I have to sign before I can use the computer. I can't find a way to remove or disable the password without deleting my local account. If I delete the account I'll lose everything in the account. We know how if it is possible to delete or disable a password protected account password?
