  This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:

  • 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).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • 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)

  The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons.

  This article describes how to use the System Restore tool to restore your computer to a previous state. System Restore takes a "snapshot" of critical system files and some program files and the registry settings and stores this information as restore points. If your computer is not working properly, you can use these points to return Windows XP to a previous state when your computer was working properly restore. It can also change scripts, batch files, and other types of executable files on your computer.

• Restore my system to an earlier date

  I have a Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit.  How it restore to a date when it was working better.  Should I go back back?

  Thank you.

  Yes, you can restore the PC to an earlier date. Please confirm with the colleague regarding the date and try to restore the PC to this date. If this fails, you can try an earlier date.

  The problem is that the installed updates are causing problems. Once the application works successfully, disable the automatic update of Flash Player. For more information, see the following link:

• cannot restore my computer to an earlier date more

  I recently had a dial-up Internet service and installed a cable modem service.  Now I can't restore my computer to an earlier date.  I tried to restore it several times and it keeps telling me that I can't restore to a previous point, although I use to.  I am at my wits end, help!  Thanks, Ron

  Some security programs prevent changes to their file and must be configured to allow the restoration of the system work.  For example, if your computer has Norton Antivirus or Norton Internet Security, you must disable Norton product Tamper Protection before you run the system restore. See the documentation of your security program. Boulder computer Maven

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing I would suggest running a virus scan.  Make sure you have no virus causing problems.  If you do not have an antivirus program, then you can download it free here: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_essentials/

  If there is no virus or it still does not work after virus cleaning, then start in safe mode and test from there.  Here are the instructions for Safe Mode.

• Re-install Windows 8 pro on PC, how many times before that the product key is not valid?

  Due to problems with Windows Update, and more specifically by using the 8.1 free update, I had some problems and have re-isntalled twice now on this PC.

  You install previous motherboard no re-day after the first installation.

  First install on the replacement motherboard activated via telephone due to the new material.

  2 more reinstall without a phone on the same PC.

  The general consensus is that, once you get to the installation of 5th Activation of the phone is necessary.

  How many times before that the product key is not valid?

  I only ask that the errors are related to data that is not stored on my PC.  and given that Windows 8 is nowhere near the performance and stabilty before I used the App store update I have to reinstall until it's resolved.

  Required to reactivate by phone after the 5th reinstalled only happen based on the license.

  If you make significant changes with a license pre-installed as a motherboard, then you will not be able to use the phone or Internet activation.

• Restoration of Windows 8 at an earlier Date

  Yesterday I played on a program called Train Simulator. What I did to change the display of the route, I was working on, in what is called the world editor. What I didn't realize is that when I changed the display of this way I'd do it for everyone else.

  I looked around my laptop and found a restore option, but the thing is that you can go when you have created a restore date. On other laptops, I had there was this system where you had the option to open the system restore program and select a date in the calendar, which means you don't have to go through this stupid system to create your own restore date.
  I was on Windows Live Chat, and they took me practically the same procedure when they asked if I could find another button of dining options, which I couldn't, they said that there is nothing they could do to help me.
  I think there must be something I can do to restore the computer to an earlier date.

  Hello

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2. What is the current state of the question?

  I suggest you to download and install the driver from the manufacturer's website and check.

  You can also post the question in the forums of Train Simulator.

  Hope this information helps.

  My laptop will be freeze/lock up if left alone for a few hours. It does nothing, so I have to use the power button to stop it. When I do it says Windows is not stopped normally. I can't restart from the start menu. I tried the system restore, but it wont let me restore to an earlier date.

• I'm trying to restore my system to an earlier date, but cannot make it work. How it works

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas: i had a problem and wanted to restore my system to a date 2 weeks ago, but may not know how get the date of the restoration to show.  How are you?

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Of course, it should work, but sometimes it doesn't.

  If provide you more information and describe what "cannot operate" means to you exactly, we can help to understand.

  Doesn't the system restore just not launch (open) at all?

  You are not able to select a Restore Point in the calendar of the Restore Points?

  If you see some sort of message indicating that the system restore did not work, say the message?

  Have you ever used successfully the system restore in the past?

  What is your system brand and model?
  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?
  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
  Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not allow a restore of the system work properly.
  For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:
  Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...
  It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/sharedtech.nsf/pfdocs/2005113009323013
  Depending on what you use for malware protection, you will maybe disable the product temporarily, make the system restore and then turn on the product.
  Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.
  System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.
  That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is usually not equivalent to fixing the problem though).
  Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.
  Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.
  No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:

  As the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.

  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Also, we don't know what happens when you try to restore your computer - not to mention that it does not work!

  See how it works and answer questions, better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

  What is the issue that you are experiencing that you think that the system restore will be remedied (or you are just convenient)?  Remember that the system restore is not a time machine.

  Have you ever used the system restore to restore your system in the past?
