How do i bypass the windows password without password recovery disk

My sister has passed away & Ive been copying her pictures off of her laptop for the family & I havent finished. It logged off last night & now its asking for password & no one knows the password.. Im almost positive there is a way to go around this password but I cant seem to figure it out on my own! Please Help ASAP THANX

Here are some common methods.
 
Method 1: Reset Windows 7, Vista, XP Password Via Another Administrator Account
 
If you have another user account with admin privileges, including built-in accounts in Windows 7/Vista/XP, you can easily bypass other accounts' password using Lusrmgr.msc and Command Line.
 
1. Log on Windows 7/Vista/XP with your administrator account. Click on Start, type lusrmgr.msc in the Search box(Win7/Vista) or Run box(Win7/Vista/XP) and click OK.
2. When the Local users and Groups dialog appears, open the Users folder. Right-click your user account and select "set password", type a new password and click OK.
 
Method 2: Reset WIndows 7/Vista/XP password with Windows password reset disk
Here is the steps to reset Windows password with password reset disk, bypassing Windows Vista/XP password is the same as this:
 
Step 1: Login Windows with a incorrect password, it will show you a link "Reset Password.." under the password box.
Step 2: Insert your password reset disk, click the link, When a password reset wizard appears, click Next.
Step 3: Choose the drive name from the pull-down list, click Next.
Step 4: Type a new password in the new password box, and type it again to confirm it. Click Next→Finish. Then you can login Windows again with the new password.
 
Method 3: Reset Windows password with Windows password recovery program
 
In this method, you need to load a recovery program on another computer, then burn it to a CD/USB. Boot your locked computer from CD/USB and reset WIndows password offline. This is a universal password reset method.

  • Disk failed, got a new one. How can I install the Windows 8 without paying?

    So I got this product and after a year and a half disk had errors and had to replace it. Now I'm struggling to install windows 8 again! how can I do it without buying Windows 8?
    This question was solved.

    In all probability you installed the wrong version of Windows that matches the key that was originally installed on your system.  Definitely it was not Pro but probably the standard, Windows 8.1
    You may download from here:
    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/18309-windows-8-windows-8-1-iso-download-create.html
    If you cannot install with the proper key you will have to order recovery disks.  If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144, and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.  Otherwise the WorldWide site:

  • How can I bypass the requests for my password?

    I'm on a Mac Pro 8 Core, running System 10.7.5. My dealer originally set it up (years ago) so that I simply had to hit the "return" key every time I was asked for a password and this worked fine. Then, when my Mac Mail went wrong and I went through Tech Support, they made me create a password for the Mail account.
    I'm now afraid that, if I do anything to the password situation, it will mess up my Mail account once mkore.
    Any advice?
    Many thanks,
    Harry

    Hi Kappy,
    Thank you very much for your reply.
    I have indeed written down my Apple ID and, thanks to you, now understand that this is a completely separate item to my computer password, which I guess is really knows as an admin account password as you point out.
    However, my question remains: how can I remove the need to enter my password when I start up my computer, or, alternatively, change it to (say) hitting the "return" key.
    When I first bought this computer, my dealer set it up so that the password was the key "return" and also I did not have to "log in" when the computer started up.
    Could you possibly find a moment to answer those questions? I'd be most grateful.
    Best,
    and thanks for your first response. Greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

    I already contact Microsoft 2 times for activations.Hope I can fix from Apple instead.

    Ok....Got "Problem 2 and 4" solved....still trying to figure out this pop up everytime I click something...it's crazy how fast the pop up blinks...maybe once or 3 blinks then nothing till you close the window, then pop up then disappears...then click something
    else and pop up then gone....never seen this before...ive seen it when you tried to get online which turned out to be a virus on a customers cpu I worked on some years ago, I think it has something to do with the deleted files that I spoke of on last
    post...I notice it does it on start up as well.....think something is trying to install but not sure. Need to figure out where the appdata or start up folder and see whats in there....maybe it's in there.......so I might wait to see how it acts in the next
    couple days for "Problem 1"...but other than that it's running like a champ...so right now I just want to get the pop up windows to stop........thx again for everyone's help on this.

    How can I use the Creative Cloud without having a Credit Card? Why are there no other possibilities?

    Hi @DRB1961, 
    I do not think the Zeen will work if you no longer have the C510 printer. The printer is necessary to ensure the Zeen is up to date. The Zeen is simply not a standalone device, it is a component of the printer.   I can not say this with certainty that it will not work, so it is worth trying to reset the Zeen to finding out for sure.
    When you see this message, "must dock the Zeen to the printer to continue", can you access the settings using the 3rd icon above the touch screen? If so we can do a factory reset, if not there is no other way I can think of to bypass this message.
    I just tried a reset on a Zeen I have access to, after the initialization, it prompts me to attach the Zeen to the printer to continue with product setup. it appears my original speculation was correct. No, you can not use the Zeen without the printer.

  • How to get all the windows ?

    Hi all,
    I created a timer which detects inactivity in the first form launched by the forms runtime shortcut :
    when-new-form-instance :
    declare
    hWind NUMBER;
    CheckTimer TIMER;
    begin
    hWind := get_window_property(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,WINDOW_HANDLE);
    Win_API_Session.Timeout_Start_Timer(hWind);
    CheckTimer := Create_Timer('T_INACTIVITY',10000);
    end;
    And in the when-timer-expired of the same form :
    if upper(get_application_property(TIMER_NAME)) = 'T_INACTIVITY' then
    if Win_API_Session.Timeout_get_inactive_time >= 8 then
         set_window_property(:system.event_window,title,'Deconnected');
    end if;
    end if;
    My problem is that when I click on a menu item in my menu, and I do nothing during 10 seconds then only the first form's window is titled 'Deconnected' but not the current form .
    I have copied the trigger when-timer-expired of the first form to the form I called but there is nothing.
    So how to make all the windows , whether it is the active window or it is hidden , to be titled 'Deconnected' when the timer expires ?
    Thank you very much indeed.

    execute a system process that will output this data and read/parse the output

    If you want to make the itunes tab so you can see the dock
    you press the
    esc
    button if your in full screen mode
    if you want to get into full screen mode you press the arrows facing away from eachother in the top right corner
    there is another way to get to the normal tab if your in full screen
    make the curser go right up to the top of the screen and it will show the apple tab
    it will have two arrows facing together highlited in blue
    if u tap that it will take you to the normal tab
