Whenever I type my password, there is a symbol of the eye...

For the last two months, whenever I type my password in the password box, a small symbol will appear on the right side of this box. It is a point with a bow above him. Basically, it looks like an eye and eyebrow. It is what worry or is this normal? Cordially Jimoa

It's normal.

If you hover your mouse over the symbol one hold down the left button of the mouse, you will be able to see your password.

  • Pavilion15-p018nz: Windows logon screen does not display the symbol of 'the eye' to reveal a password and the right arrow (input)

    Which connection to Windows 8.1 the eye symbol and the symbol of the arrow to the right were posted up to that (I think so) after an automatic update of Windows. As I was intending to migrate to Windows 10 I na not invest a lot of research on this problem. Now, after the migration successful Windows 10 Home the problem still exists. After typing the password I can't check it out because the eye symbol is still missing and I have to press 'Enter' because of the clickable right arrow missing for the opening. All this happens with a Microsoft online account. I created an account local and with that, the symbol of the eye, but not the right arrow reappeared. Thanks a lot for help.

    Hi there @CKURT

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you want to activate the icon reveal password for your system. I'm happy to help you.

    It depends really on what version of the operating system you are running, because this kind of thing is normally controlled by using the Group Policy Editor. This tool is not a part of a home edition, you need the Pro version or later version for that.

    Assuming that you do not have a pro edition or higher, then it can be a help to you:

    Original title: to continue, type an administrator password, and then click Yes, but he is nowhere to type a password and Yes is disabled.

    Hi, I know I'm a little late to the party, but I found this post faced a similar problem and thought that post my findings.
    I found a work around for this problem, which does not require a reinstall of Windows, but you may lose your user account.
    Summary:
    The problem is that in Windows 8, the administrator is inactive by default, you will have to find a way to activate it. You can enable the admin account as an administrator,.
    However. Fortunately, (on my machine anyway) it seems that you can access your hidden from the Safemode administrator account. If your first set of objectives will be as follows:
    -starting in safe mode
    -Log in as an administrator
    -l' administrator, enable the account administrator similarly.
    -Restart your machine and you as an administrator outside of safe mode (normal mode).
    From here, you should be free to do what you want. Now that the admin account is active, you are allowed to type a password when prompted (by default that the password is empty). For me, however, when I tried to promote my previous user administrator account (among other things) I noticed symptoms that seem to indicate that the account ceased to exist. I went through measures to set up a new account and get it synced with my microsoft email account.
    -Create a new user account
    -give administrator rights
    -remove my old (for some reason, hidden) account
    -Sync to the top of my new user account with microsoft e-mail account.
    Directions for use:
    How to get admin access:
    (1.) start in safe mode. You can make it easier by opening a command prompt (Start menu-> type "cmd"). And type "shutdown/r/o".
    2.), your computer begins to restart, but give you a set of troubleshooting options. Choose troubleshooting->-> start of the Advanced Options settings.
    3.) after reboot and enter safe mode, users of contactor by going to the start menu-> click on your user name-> and choose administrator.
    4.) Windows will begin the first initialization for this account.
    5.) once connected, open the command prompt, this time as a Director. (Make a right click-> Run as administrator).
    6.) type "net user administrator / Active: Yes" to set the admin account as 'active'. It will now be shown outside of safe mode.
    7.) restart your computer and log in as administrator again. You can now add users and to play with the permissions etc. (metro options are not available in safe mode, where the reset).
    How to remove your old account of 'lost' and synchronize your new account with the microsoft account.
    1.) create a new account via the control panel users. Don't forget to give you administrator rights.
    (2.) to remove your lost old account by typing "net use /del" in an administrator command prompt. You need to know your old account name, good luck with this one.
    3.) go into the settings of your pc: open the context menu on the right-> settings-> "change PC settings."
    (4.) to go to the users-> Select 'switch to a Microsoft account» tab
    I hope this helps!

  • "Ease of access" appears on the screen to login as I type my password.

    Whenever I try to log into Windows 7 Pro on my laptop.  The "accessibility" dialog as I type my password, and the letter I type when it pops up is not entered in the password field.  I tried to go into the control panel accessibility using the administrator account, disable all the accessibility features by clicking "Edit administrative settings" and check "apply all settings in the paper on the desk."

    This does not solve the problem.  Is there an OFFICIAL way to COMPLETELY disable ease of access?  I saw a few apps that claim to replace system files to get rid of him, but I'd rather not go that route.  At this point, I wouldn't be able to something that is clearly a product that people are complained about during some time in Vista.

  • Cannot type a password in the terminal

    Hi all

    Since the upgrade to the latest OS, I can't enter my password in the Terminal. Every day I run a script to stop Apple to steal data from me that I am on a very low data plan. Yesterday I could not run the script for this reason, so I manually closed the process in activity monitor. Unfortunately it is started again and has stolen the breakdown of my whole month. Here is what I get. There is a lock symbol that suddenly appeared. I googled and could not find any answers. I hope someone can help.

    Have you tried just typing the password for it? I see the lock too, but just type the password (which is not) and the sudo is executed.

  • Locking XP! error "the system could not log. Make sure your username and domain are correct, then type your password again.

    Original title: Locking XP!

    I tried to read all the relevant messages and walked the Earth for this solution, if someone could help me I would be grateful.

    A dear friend died and I got his PC - a fast XP with SP3 which (elderly) she only used for web & email. His account has been "Judi".

    I noticed a while back that, on the logon screen, that there is another user called 'Fiona' (she told me an old co-worker who probably stayed with her).

    Now a friend in need of a very old HP PC Lions not having completely fortunately I managed to copy his files before he was insane - I offered this newer PC it after that I have "set up" for him.

    I put a new account in place on this new PC "Ken" has been added. Then, after the deletion of accounts Judi & Fiona, I cleaned the machine with MalwareBytes, CCleaner & defrag.  All is well now with only Ken appearing on the screen logon (with an image of the appropriate icon), that I used several times in the implementation of his e-mail account and move its acrossetc files. His password is empty.

    Being the only user now Ken, I thought that it strange would its user (only) one click each time to the 'Log in', so I searched and found a box that said something to the effect «... do not show a picture of connection...» » .  That started my problem!  Removing his login "icon" brings ONLY the following - FIONA!

    When connecting a Logon Message now says "the system could not log. Make sure your username and domain are correct, then type your password again.  Letters in passwords must be typed using the proper case" the choice for this error message is 'OK', which takes you to a login screen 'Type Win98' older Classic looking (no icon user) who was behind this logon Message, with (name) Fiona appears on the login screen (former) (full name and empty below the password) , with the choice to enter the password or a stop!

    Of course the password cannot be guessed (Yes - tried blank, admin, etc.) so the only choice is to stop.

    VA F8 at startup for 'Safe mode' goes to screen black WITH Fiona login screen as usual safe mode above and booting with the CD using NTPASSWD shows the usual 1) Administrator 2) 3) invited Ken and 4) Support Microsoft - NO FIONA is shown - and I put all these passwords to 'empty '. Of course repair and recovery repair 'R' does nothing on the removal of Fiona

    This translates the original message & Fiona connection again.  How can I return to screen "image icon" connection without losing files and mail Ken Ken. Where Fiona could hide when it is not a USER of the NET?

    Yet once again, I'd appreciate any help. Brian.

    You should be able to just select (click on) "Fiona", press the delete key, and then type any desired account name.  It doesn't work?

    If you cannot type on "Fiona" in the logon window, you can use the following procedure to modify the Windows registry... or you can take the computer to an independent repairer and ask them to fix it for you.  Don't go to a chain of stores, as a "geek squad" or BigBoxStoreUSA type of place.

    Go here--> https://www.raymond.cc/blog/how-to-edit-windows-registry-key-values-without-booting-in-windows/

    Choose method 1 or method 2.  I'm familiar with Hiren (method 2), but not with the program described in method 1 (even though it seems simple).  Any ISO file you choose, I suggest to download and use ImgBurn (free) to create your CD bootable from the downloaded ISO file.

    The registry key to change is in the same place as "userinit" (which is the example used in the article), so to follow 1-5 step method or method 2 for step 7.

    You will be at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

    In the right pane of the registry editor, you will see a large list of items.  Scroll down the page until you see LogonType and double-click it.

    In the "Value data" box, type 1, and click OK (1 is the same either hexadecimal or decimal).

    Close the registry editor, take the CD from the drive and reboot.  You should see the Welcome screen when Windows restarts.
