  • Password reset disk error - "year error occurred while the wizard attempted to set the password for this user account.

    Hello!

    -A bit of background: the desktop PC that I use is Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, with active user accounts total five. I have my own account, and I can access the computer through (or through account from my brother, because I know its password).--

    I had this problem recently came where the administrator password (that I know for a long time and never changed) no longer works. So, after some research, I created a reset password on a USB disk, that I found in my house. I managed to create the disc, but when I tried to put the new password, I got the message error "an error occurred while the wizard attempted to set the password for this user account', which I must say is not very clear. I found a few methods of force - reset the password for the account of the admin, as using a sort of Windows Vista DVD or go to Safe Mode to find the hidden administrator account... but I have no idea what this DVD is or where to find, and in Safe Mode, there is no account user administrator to be seen. I believe that my machine is corrupted, but I don't want to buy a new. I want just to reset a password...

    Any help is appreciated. If I was not specific enough, I can specify in comments.

    Thank you!

  • Creating password policy error: Incorrect domain name

    Hi people,

    I am getting rather strange error ('Incorrect domain name") while trying to create a new password policy in OAM to activate the user account locking. I provide a name for the password policy and use the simple field of policy, I created in the 'domain password policy", as well as some fundamental values. I know it is something simple, and yet I can not understand why the domain name would be incorrect.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Roman

    Hello

    "Domain password policy" is usually the domain of the user (for example: or = users, dc = abc, dc = com). You can try on the same day?

  • reset password help Assistant

    Thanks for the help, but any suggestions require that I be logged in as an administrator and if I could log on as an administrator, then I would not need help. My wife and I have user accounts that are protected by Word and have no problems to access an account. The problem with the administrator account, which both, we have used in the past. Once again, I got this computer with the software vista since January 2007 and have changed the administrator password every 30 days and was never required to backup the passwords using the 'password reset Wizard"until mid-2012. There was a software change that made it the only tool to reset the administrator password?

    Is there a way to reset the password in Windows Vista? I have a laptop Compaq CQ50 Presario. It is old computer of my stepdaughter, and of course she can't remember the password to connect. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    There are utilities such as Offline NT that can reset passwords. Perhaps it would be easier to just boot into Recovery and reinstall Windows if you don't have any files not to lose you. Recovery will reset the laptop to factory condition. To start the recovery, start typing or by pressing the F11 key immediately after switching on the laptop.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, business machines such as Probooks or EliteBook have more strict security consumption patterns - they do not produce "stop codes", the password cannot be derived from the serial number and the code is stored in a nonvolatile memory to remove the RTC cell does not reset the password in this case.

    If you Contact HP Business support they should be able to send you a file custom SMC.bin that you can use to reset the password at startup.

  • Reset password Bios EliteBook

    Can someone help me in resetting the Bios on my Elitebook 8470P password?

    Product number is B2F97EC #ABA

    Operating system is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

    I got the file smc.bin Support HP to reset the password on my Elitebook 8470 P today.

    After that, I just copied the file on a bootable USB and booted the laptop by keeping Windows Key + up / arrow dn, then press F10, select reset password.

    It worked like a champ, I think your laptop should still be under warranty for this service, also level 1 services will not be much help, you will need to ask the file and request that they raise the service call.

    Hope this helps others in the future.
