Windows Update messed my username and password on all my computers savings program.

Need direction, I use Firefox as my browser and yahoo for my email. Since the updates for windows I can save is no longer my user name and passwords.
I understand the update of the program was done badly, it caused this for many people.

This has nothing to do with the Windows updates. It is a parameter of Firefox. Go to Options, Security tab and check passwords do not forget for sites. If this does not work, you may have a corrupt user profile.

    If your account is the default Administrator account, then you are out of luck on this forum. It is forbidden to bring answers on how crack passwords. If your account is not the default Administrator account and the admin account is not password protected you can start your computer in safe mode by choosing to log on to the admin account and delete the password for the account in question. You don't need to know the password for the account in question to delete the admin account.

    No detail of password change is obvious, so no access.  Just looks like a mistake.

    Sometimes, that is.  Try to delete the account, and then compact and repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/), and then add the account back again.

  • Whenever trying to install a new windows program gives me a prompt asking the administrator username and password?

    Whenever trying to install a new windows program gives me a prompt asking the administrator username and password, I don't know how to install a program when I don't have the admin username and password. I tried, tried to run the program as administrator, tried playing with the command prompt. Even to manage user accounts that I am invited with the same, if I am not even given these fundamental rights so what's the use of this product. Please help me in this regard.

    Hello Dominic,.

    Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Community.

    The prompt that you receive requesting the administrator username and password during the installation of any program is due to the User Account Control (UAC). UAC can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. UAC notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer or can affect settings for other people who use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC to help your computer course.

    However, if you still want to delete the computer from Windows 8 user account control settings, you can view the suggestions about Disabling UAC in Windows 8.

  • Whenever I update FireFox all my usernames and passwords vanish in password manager

    For several updates recent Firefox all my usernames and passwords (stored in password manager) disappear. I was able to recover them by exchanging one or more of the three files to a previous version ('Key3db', 'Logins.json' and 'Prefs.js') until this WHAT THE LAST THREE OR FOUR updates. This patch no longer works and I hesitate so far. I would like to know... a) this bug has been fixed?
    (b) if it is not, how can I keep my ID & password somewhere else so I can quickly re - install, or at least see them in a list so I can manually copy all back in?
    (c) how to prevent a pop-up annoying telling me to update to FireFox (other than by the update)?

    I used FireFox with happiness for many years, but this problem is very annoying and I am looking to change (with great reluctance) to another browser if an other update loses all usernames and passwords, and I have to re - install an older version to get back them.

I did have problems downloading tastes of the driver wifi for example but when I try to download the BIOS update opens a new and tab where Toshiba ask me a username and password? I tried to enter my username and password I used to register on this site and I also tried using another computer to download it, but without success.

    Please help I need to retrieve my emails! Thanks, Sarah

    McAfee is a huge problem with Windows Mail.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 if you want to use, wait until you get the job of Winmail.

    Check if you can connect webmail and that works very well and it's not a problem on the end of the server messaging or because of misspelled powers.  Then delete your account in WinMail, compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and make sure that you have disabled the e-mail analysis then add your account to mail back again and see if it works.
