I forgot my user password for dell dimension 4400 how can i remove my user password?

Question

i try to remove my user password through safe mode but there's a password too is theres any other way to remove the user password

Answer 1

Go to PC safe mode.

Push turn on button then click F8 as much when the win options screen comes forth choose safe mode and then log in as "hidden" administrator.....that hidden account does not need password, then go to control panel user accounts, choose ur account and then change pass!

Answer 2

You would need to login as an administrator, but you would need to know that password as well. Once you are logged in as administrator, you can change the password within the control panel under user accounts.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Perhaps "siw" (a standalone app) can help.

If you can run this program on it you may be able to get the password. Though, I have never tried it. (for ethical reasons)

mXxx has the right answer or  you could open your pc and reset the jumper for the cmos battery that might help but first go in safe mode you should be able to do it from there.
