This usually means you have a corrupt profile. I would log in using safe mode which might work. If you can get to the admin user in safe mode, use that to create a new profile. Otherwise you'll have to run scandisk. In Win XP, try this: http://www.fixya.com/support/r4501608-when_windows_xp_start_primary_fix In Win 7, when you hit F8 to start in safe mode you can get to the prompt that says "repair my computer". Choose that option.
While
youforgotwindows
os password, you
canenter
safe mode (F8 when booting up) to recover
windows password while
you forgot
user account password, but
when you forgot adminpasswords,
there's
no way to change it, you should
use utility
to recover admin
password. Last
week, I forgot my Windows admin
password. Last,
I
used Windows Password Seeker to removethe
Windows password successfully. It's worth an
attempt. http://www.passwordseeker.com
Hi There,
Note: Below steps are for win 7, vista and if you are user any other operating system like win 10,win 8 then mention in next post.
The best and easy method I will suggest you to activate your windows hidden admin account and for that follow the below steps:-
Boot your computer into safe mode with networking
Shutdown the system>>press power button to reboot and immediately start pressing f8(for win7,vista)>>go to safe mode with command prompt>>run below command
Net user administrator /active:yes
Hit Enter and you should see a message that says, "The command completed successfully".
reboot to new admin account and copy your old your account data into admin account or create a new user admin account and copy data.
if this does not work than revert back, I will be happy to assist you.
