I've had this laptop for a couple of years. Used it while I was going to school so I place a password on the administrator identy to keep my content safe. Well I am now going back to school. So I dusted off th old laptop but I don't remember the password. The hint is no help at all either. So what can I do to get around this and reset the password to something that I will remember?1 person needs an answerI do too

Start the computer in Safe mode and log into the built-in account named Administrator . You'll have to know the password, if any, for that account. Once in, go to Control Panel > User Accounts and change the password for your regular account.Boulder Computer MavenMicrosoft Most Valuable Professional
