There is no URL line, that anything can be taken.
Also, I have reinstalled the program as well. No change. Always default to a request for a password THAT I HAVE EVER CREATED.
Full disclosure: I reached to reconnect cable and pressed my chest against my keyboard while the computer was in mode 'sleep', with Firefox running in background. When I was in, the browser has been locked. I tried all the passwords I know and use. No luck. Following addy won't charge, even if the entry on the home page.
chrome://pippki/content/ResetPassword.XUL
Yet once, no url line does open, I run the browser, more. I just get the following message:
Please enter the master password for the software security device.
Help! Thank you!
Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.
See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

My wife is the administrator user and she forgot her password and it does not back up and there is only standard users on this PC, what can we do?
If your wife was using his account with "computer administrator" privileges, and then use the built-in account named "Administrator".
By default, the built-in account named "Administrator" doesn't have a password. If you have XP Pro, you can access the administrator account (with no other connected users) Welcome screen by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE twice to bring up the "classic" logon window Enter the administrator user and leave the password empty box.
In XP Pro or XP Home, you can access the administrator account by restarting mode without fail (repeatedly press F8 to leave immediately after the computer starts / restarts; if you see the Windows logo, you waited too long and you will need to try again). Once Windows starts in Mode safe mode, the administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen.
Once you are in the administrator account, go to control panel > user accounts to reset the password of an account with "computer administrator" privileges or create a new user account with privileges "computer administrator."
If the password that you lack to the built-in, ' administrator' account politics of Microsoft for these forums forbid us to provide you with any information that might help you to bypass this password.
