Is The Vista Ultimate User Account Passwords Located In A Different Place As Compared To Other Versions Of Vista
May 27, 2010A friend of mine has been locked out of his Dell laptop and cannot find the password for the single account that it has. The laptop has Vista Ultimate installed on it and I am unable to activate the hidden administrator's account to get into Vista. Other investigations using other software shows only 2 accounts, Administrator and Guest but not the actual user single account that shows up onto the login screen. ( I have managed to blank out the Administrator and Guest passwords ) I have a standard Vista Recovery Disk , but I am unable to either repair or re-install Vista from the Dell hidden partition , and the only alternative is to install a unused retail version of Vista Home Premium that my friend has been given awhile ago. I have 2 questions
1) Is the Vista Ultimate user account passwords located in a different place as compared to other versions of Vista?
2) if I install this retail version of Home Premium on the Dell laptop, will I have problems with the propriety hardware that is on the Dell laptop and would I need to find all the Dell drivers for the laptop?

View 6 Replies View RelatedPrevent Vista Mail From Deleting Old Newsgroup?
Jun 18, 2008Today I had a need to find some questions and responses that I'd sent to and received from, some of the MS newsgroups (including this one). It seems that Vista Mail has auto-magically deleted a large number of old newsgroup messages that I had previously downloaded to my machine, so I've lost that history. I've been through all the dialog boxes I could find and I cannot find any "delete downloaded news messages after ...." option. Odder still, if I use the Mail search tool to find messages, it finds some.
If I then go back to the message viewer, that gets refreshed and the search "hits" disappear from the found items dialog. Are old messages actually being deleted from the MS servers somewhere and my local cache is then being kept up to date by deleting the old messages? So the question is, "How do I prevent Vista Mail from deleting old newsgroup messages?".
Deleting Remnants Of A VISTA Search, Delete Browsing History Completely From A Pc
Apr 7, 2009I want to delete my browsing history completely from a pc. I had done all the usual, tools, internet options & delete. I have also used the Vista search function and found a couple of folders containing relevant material and deleted those. I have deleted the cookies manually by unhiding the directory and sniping those out. HOWEVER, if I type the name of a site into the VISTA search - a string of references appear above - as if they are still in the browing history - but they are not as I have deleted them. Is there some other reference I need to delete somewhere? perhaps some sort of shadow directory structure? The references appear as http// etc above - but these do not lead anywhere if I click on them. They must be embedded in some some sort of script somewhere.

Sep 19, 2008I've just tried to uninstall Vista OSX 4 via its uninstaller, but nothing seems to have worked. All the icons are that of MacOS, same goes for the login and bootscreens. But nevermind the last two, I will deal with them myself. What bothers me is that I cannot find IconCache.db nowhere on C: in order to delete it and reset the icon cache as described here, on vistax64.com. The other method (switching back to 16-bit colors also did not do the trick). Mainly my concern is for the explorer icons - system drives, start menu icons (Computer, Control panel...)

Mar 22, 2009I recently puchased a new laptop and unfortunately had to get Vista or it would have cost me more (for XP), and I am not happy with it, am not happy with the things I've heard, and I'm having a difficult time learning it. Every day I have a new question and sometimes more than one a day. lol the problem I'm having now is that IE (7) is not saving all of my passwords. I mistakenly put the wrong password in a forum I've belonged to for quite some time and of course I was prompted to ask if I wanted to save it and I answered yes, not realizing it was wrong. Well, now, every day I type in my "correct" password and I'm told it's wrong because IE is remembering the incorrect password and not prompting me after I put in the correct one.

Mar 23, 2008Vista Home Premium x64, Office XP with Service Pack 3. I set up my Outlook? 2002 (10.6515.6626) to do my email but it will not remember my passwords. Every time I open the program it tells me I need to enter my password. I do so and I check the box to remember the password. It does the same thing when I go to send an email. It does the same thing if I go in through "Tools - E-mail accounts" and set the mailboxes up all over again. It will not remember my passwords.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIE7 Will Not Cache Pages Or Store Cookies
May 15, 2008The other day gmail started complaining that my cache was full so I cleared it and increased the size to 1024MB. This did not stop the error so I looked a little deeper and the issue appears to be that IE7 is not caching anything at all - at least, the "Temporary Internet Files" folder is empty.
This leads me to consider a permissions problem, more so as I have moved the Temp Internet folder to another partition. I have set the permissions on the drive and parent folder to give "everyone" full control. This has not resolved the problem. Some files have appeared which I think have come from Windows Media Player but websites are not showing up, not even cookies. rss.xml files have also shown up after a reboot from sidebar news gadget (even though it's not running?!).....

Mar 23, 2008I have had my computer almost a year, no Windows Mail issues til now. I have Vista Home Premium. I went to check mail today on Windows Mail and all of my passwords would not store any longer. I get a windows security pop up for each account to put in the logon info, I do, click store info, ok. I put them back in, checked mail ok, but when I closed Windows Mail and restarted it, same problems. When I put the passwords in the Accounts section and hit APPLY, they disappear again once I reopen it. I have deleted the accounts and put them back in, same problems. I check 6 accounts at once too, so it is a major pain in the butt to input every one each time like this. It is not my antivirus program either, I have used the same one for a year with no problems until today. This morning it all worked fine, now it the passwords will not save.

This is one of the most annoying issues with Windows Vista for me since I work off a local NAS I have at home all the time.

If that was not enough, now Windows Vista no longer even gives me the option to save my password.

Resource Loader Cache Doesn't Have Loaded MUI Entry
Dec 9, 2009"The resource loader cache doesn't have loaded MUI entry". I get this error every time I try to install or update just about anything. I had this same problem a while back and couldn't find any answers so I called DELL and paid for them to fix it because this is my business computer and I needed to install something right away. I just chalked it up to the price I have to pay for my LACK of computer skills. It worked fine for several months but now it's happening again and I don't want to pay for it again. I would like to try the quoted fix but I have no idea what "that user control THINGY" is or how to turn it off. BTW, my OS is Vista 32bit and I have McAfee Security Center installed.
Quote: Originally Posted by John Doty Steve, I turned off that user program control thingy, rebooted with it off, then turned it on again and the error went away. Apparently, windows rebuilt some file and fixed itself. Of course, this was AFTER I had removed norton and bought zonealarm. Anyway, no more error.
FLV Cache/Directory Bigger Size Delete Turn Off
May 15, 2010Using Vista at home (dunno wot flavor at the mo as I'm at work now - sorry). I use Firefox browser. I know that FLV streams I download are cached in a directory, in my case called " C:UsersGrazTreezAppDataLocalFLVService " Problem I have noticed is that after I have streamed several clips onto my PC, and then I go to view them, some are not there, ie the earliest ones I downloaded arent there. The latest ones will be though. I can dbl-clik on those and see them ok. Theory was that I would download a load of clips at once, then simply view them at a later time, but since some are not viewable now it appears I cant do this. They simply aren't listed in the directory. Question is, if this cache of streamed clips is one bucket of a certain size, can I alter its size to be bigger ? OR,if it is not one size, can I alter this directory/cache spec to be a bigger size in any way so that it will take eg: 1Gb of data before starting to delete stuff ? OR, can I turn off the deleting process so it will all be saved, rubbish an'all? HDD space isn't an issue. I have TB's spare. I dont know if I'm talking browser (Firefox) or Windows or Flash size limitations here, so any pointers would be welcomed.
