Reset Adminstrators password DynGroup 6/14/2007 4:12:03 PM We cannot get access to a PC because the Admin left and we do not know his password. How can we change the password?

Re: Reset Adminstrators password "Tony Sperling" <tony.sperling[ at ]dbREMOVEmail.dk> 6/14/2007 4:44:27 PM You can download a free-ware utility called SIW (System Information Windows). http://www.gtopala.com/siw-download.html it has a way to reveal passwords. Don't know about the Admin though. Tony. . . "DynGroup" <DynGroup[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D3A8C79D-995C-4C4A-81B2-20681195C528[ at ]microsoft.com...

Also, if you were in a domain, instead of a workgroup, you'd have additional options. Also, if there is any other account on that computer, and it is an administrative account, you should be able to change the administrator password. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "DynGroup" <DynGroup[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D3A8C79D-995C-4C4A-81B2-20681195C528[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Reset Adminstrators password "Tony Sperling" <tony.sperling[ at ]dbREMOVEmail.dk> 6/14/2007 8:47:03 PM It is certainly useful. There's another one, a bit different but it lists all your hard and software that it recognizes with a link to their site. It's AIDA32, widely available from all sorts of sources. Neat little thing too. Tony. . . "Kue2" <h.j.kennedy[ at ]sympatico.ca> wrote in message news:8FA126CF-8BBB-4F88-B382-9565B730D1B5[ at ]microsoft.com... [Quoted Text] > Thks Tony > nice program .
