  • I cannot get my Windows 7 to open it says incorrect password

    I can't get my windows 7 to open it says incorrect pw, I need a premade pw recovery disk which I do not have to reset the pw.  I owe typed something wrong is anyway to reset or findout the pw.  I saw anothers question exactly the same problem, they said it was the col-num, but still no luck. Help, please?

    Assuming it's a Windows password and not a BIOS password (required when you turn on the computer):

    You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for configuring user accounts in Windows 7, I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    If you have a Windows 7 DVD installation (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Windows 7 installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair the system Windows 7 (not a system recovery!) in the menu diagnosis. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable DVD of Windows 7 repair of the file on this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2009/Windows-7-system-repair-discs/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. If you create the bootable DVD in an older operating system (XP, Vista), you will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data. Windows 7 can burn the .isos natively.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Windows 7:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. Like XP, Vista and all the other modern operating systems, Windows 7 is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges in Windows 7 because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • Compressed encrypted file requires password when opening

    Windows 7. I have a compressed file protected by. When I open the file with the password with wordpad. IT will then open this file each time with a password.

    It is listed in the list of recent files and when I click on it. It will open this file every time with out asking for a password. I have to go to regedit and delete recent files to clear this list. This means that anyone who has access to my computer can open this file without using a password.

    Is there anyway to put wordpad so it will ask password before opening the file?

    The file has a password. And I wonder every time if I go to the file and try to open it.

    But Wordpad does not ask. It's almost like wordpad maintains a temporary file with the text inside.

    I'm not aware of a facility to password - protect a file in Wordpad. Please use snippingtool.exe to create a snapshot that shows exactly how you apply this password. You must save the file and then uploaded with the "mountain" icon in the bar symbol of your response.

  • With a password to open document - is possible not to ask only once per session?

    Here is my scenario: user reads a "password to open" document that contains links to other web pages, etc.  The user clicks on a link, go to the new page, and then uses the back button/back key to return to the password protected document, where they must enter the password to open again and do every time they click on a link and then later attempt to return to the document.

    Is there a way to bypass the retype repeated / home / re-enter the password?  (I think not, but I'll ask anyway).  The user did enter his password, most of the time just a minute or two earlier, before they clicked on the link in the document password protected.

    P.S. I have a few other questions, (by-products) indirectly related to this general theme.  I'll post those in their appropriate forum, then edit this post with links to these posts.  FYI, the other positions are / will be:

    • Is there a better way to manually adjust each link in a document to use javascript and repeat process whenever the document is updated, to make the links to open in a new window (when you see a pdf in a browser window).  [Edit: here is the link: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5055202#5055202 ]
    • Is it possible to an html page or an element in a PDF document (at the discretion of the author of the document) to open a pdf file in the acrobat reader window instead of in the browser, without asking each user to change their player settings?  [Edit: I ended up asking that question in the same post listed above]

    Once the instance of Acrobat or Reader that contains a PDF file protected by password has been closed, you can avoid having to retype the password. If the links do not target a window or a new tab, then the browser will unload the plugin - and apart from all of the link targets change, you cannot prevent this.

  • New e-mail window no longer opens automatically (as previously)

    I've upgraded to the latest version of Thunderbird about 4 weeks back. (Don't know which version I used).

    Since then the new e-mail window does not open automatically when I seek to determine the folders and decide to do a right click on a file and select: SEND TO, and then select: RECIPIENT of the MESSAGE. Thunderbird only opens, but that's all.

    Other programs that is also used to automatically open the new e-mail with an attachment, window does not work either.

    Previously a window writing a new Email automatically open with the file selected, attached, followed by Thunderbird opening.

    How can I get this behavior again.

    Went internet and downloaded a version more old 33.0 Mozzila Thunderbird.

    Now the problem is solved and it works again.

  • My e-mail window does not open when I try to open a mail on my desk

    When I click on the mail icon in the taskbar mail window won't open. If I right click on the icon, it seems that the mail is running, but the window will not appear.

    There are 3 options to see if the mail is opened:

    (1) do you see any point in the Dock by the Mail icon? The dot indicates whether the application is open.

    (2) you can also check in the activity monitor. Open the activity monitor in Applications/Utilities. On the CPU tab you see Mail? You can enter the mail in the top search box to see if it is open. If an application has problems, you will see "Not responding" in red next to the name of the app.

    (3) Finally, under the Apple in the Menu bar, select force quit. Don't you see Mail? He says not responding do not?

    If the mail is opened and it crashes (not answer) do you see Mail in the Menu bar above? If so, under file select new visualizer.

    If the mail is not open, go to System Preferences > accounts Internet and uncheck the email for each account. Now try to open the mail. It opens?
