You can try this--if you're running Windows 8, to get to the password:
http://www.geek.com/news/windows-8-password-reset-trick-requires-no-third-party-software-1532242/

Or, if that won't work, you could try the "old-fashioned" way:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/five-apps/five-trustworthy-password-recovery-tools/ I'm not really a "Windows guy" but I have used Ophcrack successfully in the past. Don't let it intimidate you. It's easier than it looks.

The other, much more drastic option, is to do a "factory reset" or "wipe" of the computer using the installation media. Or in other words, erase everything and reinstall Windows. That, however, will blow away all the stuff that's currently stored on the computer and overwrite all the programs, etc.

Once you get in, set up the accounts properly: A separate Admin account that isn't for "daily" use, and actual user account(s) for you and your daughter and whoever else to use. Then, it's just a matter of logging in to the machine using the Admin account and resetting the user passwords as needed.

You should be up and running shortly. Good luck!

    "hp 14-b109wm" is not a router. It is a laptop. If you are truly having problems with a router, there is usually a small hole in the back that you can poke a straightened paperclip into to depress an internal button while powering the unit up which will set the router back to factory defaults. From there, it's a matter of accessing the router with the "factory" user/password. Google for specific procedures using the proper model number, etc. Good luck.

SOURCE: I wana know if i can reset my router password

Yes, If you know the routers' administration password, you can log in to the administration settings and change the password. If you are asking if you can change it without knowing the admin password, not likely.

Sent incorrect model no. before. my daughter has set a pin no. password on her tablet in error. She doesn;t know what it is so now we can't access tablet. We have pressed reset button on back but no change...

Isn't this the same problem as this one?
http://www.fixya.com/support/t24390784-pin_no_set_in_error_tablet_now_access

The tablet has no PIN. It is the SIM card for 3G that needs a PIN to access the 3G service.
When you remove the SIM card, the tablet will work perfectly without asking a PIN.

I hope this helps.

I installed in my daughter ion laws laptop and need to flash bios so i can update it and it says password needed .She doesn't remember password ,how can I get around the password in bios?

Hi,

Welcome to FixYa!


BIOS is one important component of a computer, its where you can change some important settings inside the computer itself. Are you the one who set up the BIOS password? If not, unfortunately, there's no way for us to retrieved the password. The only way you can reset the password to default settings is to reseat the CMOS battery on the motherboard, its a circular thing that looks like a battery of a watch,sometimes a pin hold it, just detached it then wait for at least 30 minutes then connect it back again,


Note: Before you reseat the CMOS battery,make sure that everything is unplugged on the computer, like AC adapter,battery and all external devices...


Hope this will help...Thank you for using Fixya...

Do not remember passwork

if you have changed the password from the default, you must reset the router.
then you can use the default password.
if you have not changed the password, and simply dont remember the default log on is:
username: (keep blank)
password: admin (all lowercase)

Can't remember my password on hp 6000 computer how

Are you talking about the BIOS password, or the windows password?
A hard reset will probably reset your BIOS password (see this thread),

To reset your windows password, you need your XP CD-ROM and follow this instruction.
