Passwords have been placed on all accounts
I'm at a school library and students have placed passwords on the accounts
here, and the new librarian does not know the previous password for the administrator account. Is there any way I can remove the passwords without re installing Windows? |

There is a program ARISKKEY.EXE that will convert the ***'s to letters
and/or numbers so you can view the password. Be careful whne using it. "Yellow Man" Yellow wrote in message ...

Yellow Man Yellow had this to say: My reply is at the bottom of your sent message: I'm at a school library and students have placed passwords on the accounts here, and the new librarian does not know the previous password for the administrator account. Is there any way I can remove the passwords without re installing Windows? Is this the password (account password) that you're looking for?

Hi,
Yes, it is really possible. The Active@ password changer tool can help in this case. It is small utility that can reset lost or forgotten password. I'm sure that will fix the situation. http://www.password-changer.com/ |
