Lost Windows password:

• Log in as Administrator (try safe mode if you don't see Administrator).
  
• Login as other user (if other user is availible) and manage users.
  
• Reformat computer.
  
• Use 3rd party software to remove password. Like http://www.top-password.com/reset-windows-password.html
  

Hi carolgard276...

Left click on "Start">left click on "Control Panel">left click on "User Accounts">left click on "Change an Account".

You probably already know that only computer adminitrators can delete user accounts. But even if you are a computer administrator, you can't delete your own acount. You'll need to ask someone else with a computer administrator account to do this for you.
If there are no other computer admistrator accounts on your computer, you must first change someone else's account type to "computer administrator", and then ask that person to delet your account.
This ensures that there is always at least one person with a computer admimistrator account who can manage all user accounts and make system-wide changes to the computer.

Your laptop is password protected: in order to use it, you need to know a valid userid and passord.
- Primary password: your assigned userid and password (which could just be blank - press enter after entering userid)
- Administration password: enter admistrator userid (such as as administrator or Admin) and the assisgned password (whih could be admin) - Admistrator can override a user locked laptop.
Turning the power off to the laptop will reset the laptop to 'normal' usage but may still require a userid and password.
Hope it helps.

enter the safe mode and login as administrator

password would be blak or admistrator.. as long as u havent changed it

find in admistrative

Power off. Power on while tapping F8. Choose safe mode. Log on as Administrator. Go to Control Panel/Users and reset your password.

If you bought the computer as used then you definately need to do a system restore to put it in factory setting. Restart and hold down the F11 function key till you hear a beep. Then select system/factory restore and don't forget to backup your documents.

That does fix all your problem as you will become the sole administrator to make and change settings.

Rate this please

Do you mean the password to log into Windows XP?

If so, right after you turn on the Laptop, start tapping the F8 key until you get a menu screen on a black background.

With the keyboard arrow keys, select Safe Mode and click Enter.

On the Windows Welcome Screen you should see your Windows account and a new Administrator account. Hopefully, no one set up a password on the built-in Administrator account. Click the Administrator account and click to log in with no (blank) password.

Windows will tell you that you are working in Safe Mode and click yes on that box (The screen will look considerably larger and your background will not show as Windows uses default video drivers in safe mode). Click start and go to Control Panel. On the left hand side click Classic View and then Double Click on the User Accounts Icon.

Click your account from the User Accounts window that opens and choose Change My Password or Remove My Passowd. After you have removed or changed your password, close all the Windows and Restart your computer normally. When you get to the Windows Welcome Screen, the Administrator account should not be listed anymore and you can select your account and log in with the New Password you created, or log in with a blank password if you chose to Remove My Password.

Log on as an admistrator go to control panel: users: and give her profile full administrator rights
