Stored User Names And Password?

Jun 3, 2008

I'm trying to use the Stored User Name and Passwords functionality so that I get automatically logged into sites. I've added details for my hotmail account, i.e.

Log on to = www.hotmail.com
User name = my hotmail email account
Password = my hotmail password

When I start IE and go to Hotmail I do not get logged on automatically. Am I missing something or have I misunderstood what the stored user names and password functionality should do?

Can Not Find Inbox Content Stored

Sep 25, 2008

I am currently backing up my PC (Windows Vista Basic) but it is only saving the folders and not the actual content within the folders. The problem is I cannot find where my inbox content would be located in order to back it up. Previously, I would be looking for .pst files in XP but this isn't the case with Vista.

Manage Your Stored Network Passwords

Mar 5, 2007

Are the save password check boxes missing from your network authentication screens?  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.  Rather than just save my password as it should the first time when I checked the save password box, it seems to throw my password away after a reboot.  If that was not enough, now Windows Vista no longer even gives me the option to save my password. 

One easy way to fix this issue and store my passwords for real is the use the Stored Usernames and Passwords utility. Follow these steps: ...

Confirm That All The Folders And All The Emails Are Stored In C:UsersRussAppData

Mar 23, 2008

I have a new Dell computer with Vista Home Premium--my first experience with Vista. I have transferred (I believe successfully) my email settings and email files from my old machine (Windows XP, Outlook Express) to the new machine (Windows Mail). There are two panes; the left one contains the folder tree, and appears to be correct, including the total number of messages and number of read messages in each folder. The right pane, which should contain columns of information for each of the messages, is blank. No messages, no headers.I have confirmed that all the folders and all the emails are stored in c:UsersRussAppData.... And I can read them by double clicking on the ..eml files. However nothing appears in the right pane in Windows Mail. The column headers are also missing. I can add them by checking the appropriate boxes in View--> Columns.... But if I close out Windows Mail and reopen it, the headers disappear and the boxes in View-->Columns... are unchecked.

Forgot Password Stored On Eeprom Chip

Mar 20, 2010

I have a Dell Inspiron 1545. My brother's friend was messing around with it and somehow put a password on it and I think it's stored on the eeprom chip since I can't get it to boot to the bios, safe mode, or anything at all. I have tried different generic passwords such as Admin but nothing's working. I see the Dell spash screen when it boots but then goes to a gray screen that says this computer is protected by a password authentication system. You cannot access the data on this computer without the correct password. After you try 3xs it shuts down. He says he doesn't know how he did it or what the password is.

I have a friend that has a recovery cd since he has the same laptop, but it won't even boot off of that. I've also tried taking out the CMOS battery for about an hour and it is still wanting the password which makes me believe that the passwords stored on the eeprom chip. Is there anyway to bypass this and fix my computer? I have tried contacting Dell, but get nowhere. They don't understand it will not reformat otherwise I would.

UAC Kicking In: String Stored As Part Of Log That UAC Maintains?

Apr 15, 2008

When UAC kicks in for some reason, you can optionally choose to view more details where that dialog displays what looks like a long hexadecimal string - I haven't confirmed whether it is valid hexadecimal. The point is, its probably some kind of ID for that particular instance of UAC kicking in. Why isn't that string selectable so that it can be copied to the clipboard? Is that string stored as part of a log that UAC maintains?

Product Key Cannot Be Validated

Mar 19, 2009

I had bought an HP 2133 when I was in Bahrain. When I first started up the computer, Vista Business started installing, probably from the Recovery partition. Anyway, I am in Turkey now and I upgraded mh harddisk and wanted to install Vista Business on the new harddisk. Underneath my computer there is an original Microsoft sticker for the product Key. During the Vista installation I typed this key but received an error message that the key cannot be validated. The key starts with J4CQ3- What might be the reason? What is the solution? I want to use my original Vista Product Key.
