• Administrator password lost Windows 7 some kind around him?

  Need a way to bypass the password on the administrator account in windows 7 new machine and in the pass of configuration has been
  entered accidentally and don't know it.   Transfer of old data machine so I don't want to do a re install of full operating system or I lose data HELP! everyone?

  What account are you talking about? The 'real' administrator or your normal "group administrator" account? If you're the normal account you have another account with administrator privileges?

  Rather than wait for answers, I will cover the three options above. If it's something else I'm going to need more entries.

  (1) if he is the real Director, it is a fairly easy fix (I had to do the other day because my OEM set a password for the account).

  ·     Open Control Panel > user accounts and select the option that allows you to change other accounts;

  ·     Select the administrator account.

  ·     Disable the password required. Changing this option does not require a password.

  (2) if it is your own account, but you have another account on the system with administrator privileges, the above procedures will work here as well.

  (3) If you're clean and no other account has administrator privileges it will be much more complicated.

  First of all, try changing the account that you are in administrator. It is unlikely that it will work and would be a major security hole, but it is worth it.

  If this does not work, try to start a command prompt and activating the true administrator. Procedures at this link will guide you through the boot to the command prompt. Once at the command prompt, type the following two lines:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes
                  Net user administrator p@ssw0rD

  Notes: 1) these two lines can be in any order. (2) ""p@ssw0rD " is one example, type any password you want;" and (3) the password line may not be necessary in your case. I added it because as my OEM set a password on my new computer. If they did as well on yours, you must start the return to a command prompt to change the password later, so may as well do it now. You can always disable it later.

  Once you ask the real active administrator, start at the top and connect to the administrator account. Once there, use the procedure in "1)" above. This third option may not work, I've never had to try it this way, but it makes logical sense.

  Good luck.

• 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.

  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 ;)
