You have often seen the administration password request during the windows xp installation. But even after entering the password we do not see the Login password option when our window is completely installed and rebooted. You might be wondering why this happens and for what reason they request for the password …Here it should be clear that the administrator password and user account password are different things. Most of us consider administrator password as user account password…
<>Uses & advantages of administration password
* It is used in safe mode when you forgot your windows xp user account password* the supreme advantage of giving administrator password to your window is to provide high level of security to your system. Weather you’re on the local area network or on internet. No one can access your machine. When anyone try to access your system he will gets an option for administration password which is only stored in your brain.
* One more advantage of having window xp administration password is that no one can change your user account password..Let me explain how this going to happens.
Let’s suppose you have installed windows xp without entering administration password or skipping that step during windows installation. After the completion of installation you put a user account password by going to start/settings/control panel/user account. Now when you reboot your machine you’ll need a user account password to logon to your window.Consider you have forgotten your password and you are unable to logon to your window.But do not loose hope there is still one way to get the problem solve if your machine is free from administrator password discussed above. Here is the solution.
Reboot your computer, Press & hold “F8?, until you gets some options in black window …from those options select “safe mode” .Selection of this option will take you to the login panel .Select here “Administrator” and logon to your window…If you have forgotten your user account password, then you will need old user account password to change or disable it which you don’t have! ..Go to start/settings/control panel/user account… Open guest account and enjoy using your windows xp. And if you want to change the user account password even after forgetting the old one…Then there is still one way which I’ll discuss in my next post …up to then keep on practicing. Because “practice makes a man perfect”
