Locked-out after repair install - No admin password
I did a repair install & malware scan after a virus corruption. I can get to desktop in safe mode (& have networking), but in normal mode I'm locked-out. The log-in screen prompts for Admin Password, & it won't accept nothing. I've never had a passcode, or even been prompted for one in the past.I looked at my User Accounts in the Control Panel, & there isn't any passwords assigned to anything... So, how do I bypass the log-in screen to go directly to desktop like it did before?1 person needs an answerI do too

You seem to be under the impression that your computer is malware free since you have performed a scan with Kapersky. I beg to differ. No anti-virus or malware scanner has a 100% detection rate. For this reason you need to scan with several scanners.Open Control Panel > User accounts > Click on "Change the way users log on and off" . Place a check mark in the box to use the Welcome screen.I don't vote for myself I'm not here for the points. If this post helps you, vote. Visit my forum @ http://repairbotsonline.com/
