View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an emachine that my uncle, used for a while and reset the admin password. He recently passed away so now I do not know how to get into the system. He had an administrator account. But I don't know the password. I've tried all I can think of, but doesn't work... Also i've tried to login in safe mode.. but the accounts screen comes up and there is only one account (My uncle's.. which is also the main admin account)... and there's a link under that says "reset password". Is there any free solution that I can use or do I have to go show to a technician or re-install?

View 5 Replies View Relatedis there a downside to responding "yes" when signing into a website when asked "do you want this site to remember your password"? These are sites I go to often and it would be nice to not have to look up a password each time but if it isn't secure then looking it up is fine.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have win 7 ultimate 64bit and a while ago i tampered with file encryption and was dumb enough not to back up my encryption key. However, i remember my password that i used to encrypt those files. I formatted C: and re-installed Win7, just to notice i can't access some of my important files on another drive.So, i thought several possibilities of recovery, and i appreciate if you guys could express if any of the options below are viable.
1) Since i didn't back up my encryption key, where is the original one located? (if i use some recovery program to restore it)
2) Can i use recovery programs to restore pre-format a) user account, or b) encryption key, or c) windows (which actually then works)?
3) I remember the password i used to encrypt the files, so can i just make a new encryption key and kind of import it to my present windows to decrypt those files?
4) Does "Advanced EFS Data Recovery" or some other encryption key recovery tool work for my problem?
So I got my NAS set up with SAMBA sharing with my password so no one else in the local area should be able to access it. The problem is that I do not have a password on my computer and windows 7 is constantly trying to login to the network share with the username and no password on each boot. I have to manually enter my username and password each time I boot and the "remember the password" checkbox doesn't work.One solution is to have a VBScript remove the network share and readd it using the username and password on each boot, but I wonder if there is a more elegant way of doing it than that?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have Windows 7 32-bit(official RTM, clean install) only 1 account on it which of course is Admin.Sometimes when I press the Windows button + l to lock the screen and come back after a few minutes, enter the password but Windows 7 reports it as wrong password all the time. I have had the same password for 3 years so I know for sure I entered it correctly all in lower case. Also, if I deliberately try to enter a wrong password when my normal one doesn't work, I get the white round circle indicating that its being processed. Then after like 3 minutes, Windows 7 reports it as being the wrong password (the correct behavior from Windows 7 would have been to reject the the wrong password immediately).So I have to do a manual shutdown as it's the option left. I have tried to reinstall Windows 7 many times but this problem just keeps happening randomly.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI don't remember my administrator user password. I can't change it without knowing the original password. How do I find out what my password is? I use an eikon biometric fingerprint device. I've run into this problem because I cannot backup my notebook on my external hard drive. So, I use my network to copy all files from the notebook to my desktop. Then I backup the desktop to the external hard drive (USP). When the transfer is complete the desktop asks for the password on my notebook and I don't know it. Therefore I'm not sure that the files I have transferred from the notebook are being backed up on the desktop. Again, all I need to know is how to find out what my notebook user (administrator) password is.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo it seems like windows 7 corrupted the password I set for the admin account because it did not work. Probably because I set the password then set it up to do automatic login using the 'control userpasswords2' command. So now i am using a vista password cracker but it can't seem to find the registry? It states it is in winnt/system32/config but when i type that in, it does not find it. is the registrysam file in a different location? If so can someone please list it here?
