password forgotten windows 8

Heeeeeelp!

My dad forgot the password of Windows 8...

It's a HP Pavilion g6, and I've tried everything...

My first problem is that I can't find a feature key shortcut key to join the system BIOS... I have to press shift reboot to get there... Y at - it a keyboard shortcut?

Second, there was no admin profile put in place at the time not a password recovery disk so the only ones I see is my father, and you can enter the password until the cows come home, home and the screen does not change...

If after all this, I'm like OK - crack password... I have download and burned on the disc (and USB) and changed the boot order but the * beep * laptop it won't read...

Short of re - install Windows 8 (which I have to get the disc from the dealer that Windows was preinstalled) y at - it something I can do... ?

My father is driving me BANANAS!

Thanks for reading...

You can access the BIOS of most recent generation specifications by:

1) press the power button

(2) immediately start typing the ESC key to call the start menu.

(3) choose F10 in the start menu to access the BIOS.

A word of warning. Nothing in the BIOS will help you in the forgotten Windows password.

If your father has not taken the time to do a disk recovery or sill USB recovery media set you have two options.

(1) purchase a set of recovery disks from HP or an HP partner. A game costs $25.00 USD. If you live in the rest or the world order here.

(2) find a store that has a technician with access to the msDart and the program locksmith.

  • Re: How to reset / recover forgotten Windows password

    Forgetting your Windows administrator login password.
    With no way to get into the system, you can perform even basic maintenance, and still less a complete tune up.
    Formatting is always an option, but we consider that a last resort. (In addition, guess who's going to help to reinstall all the programs lost after a wipe?)

    But all hope is not lost.
    There are several ways to recover a password account Windows lost. Read on, and we'll show you the light.

    _1st method: _

    The first thing check you if you forget the password. When we install windows, it automatically creates an account 'Administrator' and affects his empty password. So if you have forgotten your user account password then try this:

    Start system and when you see Windows Welcome screen / login screen, press ctrl + alt + delete twice and it'll show classic login box. Now type "Administrator" user name (without the quotes) and leave the field blank password. Now, press Enter and you should be able to log on to Windows.

    Now you can reset your password to "user accounts of-> Control Panel.

    Same thing can be done in Mode without failure. In Safe Mode Windows will display this account of administrator in the login screen.

    Method _2th: _

    There are many password crackers and Windows developers.

    This tool only works on NTFS partitions, but it works very well! You can even use it to copy the data from one place to another. But this isn't for free.

    Windows password recovery tool:

    How can I reset my forgotten administrator password for Windows 7, without a password reset disk?

    There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    HOW TO REMOVE THE PASSWORD IN WINDOWS XP.

    If you mean a Windows password and not a hardware password, then:

    A. Si the password for the built-in account named 'Administrator', Microsoft's strategy does not allow for advice on this subject which will be discussed in these forums: Strategy of Microsoft

    B. Si the password for any account Windows XP, and then connect to an account with privileges "computer administrator", go to control panel > user accounts and change or remove the password.  If you do not have an available with privileges "computer administrator" user account"AND you have not used the account named 'Administrator', you can find it as follows:
             
    In Windows XP Home Edition, restart in Mode safe mode by pressing the F8 key immediately after the power on sequence.  If the Windows logo appears, you've waited too long and must try again.  In Safe Mode, Administrator indicates on the Welcome screen.  The default password is blank (no password).

    In Windows XP Pro, either use Mode safe mode as above, or with any other connected accounts welcome screen, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE.  The classic logon box appears.  Enter the administrator user.  The default password is blank (no password).

    Thanks for sharing this, but we always talk about password of Toshiba, it won't and I think this might be a bit confusing, it is of a workaround for the windows user account password.

    As much as I know there is no password defined by Toshiba.

    The user can define the user account password in windows if necessary so that this workaround solution describes how to remove a user account Windows password that is common to all computers with the preinstalled Windows operating system.

    However, thanks for posting ;)

  • Reset password in Windows 7

    Wih Compaq Windows 7 on it.

    I bought a PC from a friend of mind. It had a password on it, and I need to reset the password 'pass '.

    He left the city. I can't get my hands on him. So, how do I reset it. Help

    You list the Compaq model you have it please?

    There are all kinds of tutorials on how to do this if you Google it.

    The best way to reset your password for Windows user at this point is to create whats called Live CD (or USB).

    You start in this Live CD and follow the instructions to reset the password.

    You will need access to another computer and download the software to create the Live CD.

    There are several Linux-based programs that do this, but I like Lazesoft.
    I learned of the Lazesoft Recover My Password by looking at Britec09 which makes tech YouTube tutorials.

    Lazesoft makes the process easy and you don't need to know the command prompts.
    The software downloaded will be also set up and install on a CD or a usb key without installing anything extra. Just follow the guests. The best part is a free edition just to remove the password.

    Go to this link to read about it.
    How to burn Windows password recovery CD.
    How to reset your forgotten password.

    Not knowing what computer you have, I assumed that touch the key F9 to start, you will have to boot selection screen to boot from your new Live CD or USB.
