I went through all the steps... and when I got to net user * it loaded three lines without stopping for input.. so whatever is in the password field was unchangeable.
there is not supposed to be anything in that password field.. there was never a password set up.. ever and I still have incorrect password nonsense.
didn’t give me the reset password option at the end idk what to do
I have the same problem

@@rajababy2009 j.
@@rajababy2009 I did the same but i found out. it’s not to turn off your computer but to press the red button on the bottom right when it’s on the enter password screen to shut down.
I’m so fucking piss I’m doing the last step to change the password and still can’t login
Got all the way through, but when i go to enter password on login screen it tells me userid or password is incorrect 😫
It keeps happening to me as well its triggering me
same
has anyone found a solution ???
@@Theicyproductions no l it sucks I'm stuck on the password thing
U need help I post the video of what my laptop is doing could u help me it’s on page the video of what my laptop is doing I don’t get nothing in your video mines still ask for a user name and password
I have the "attempting repairs" screen for at least 15-20 minutes. How long does that screen usually stay I'm still waiting.
Sorry for my slow reply, it can take over an hour depending on your hardware.
@@olivercanham shhhhiiittttt my old highschool of will take 1 month then
Thank u so much..it really works😘😘😘😘😘
I can't get this to work. To be fair, my "h" key doesn't work so I can't rename the file properly. Also, when I click finish, computer doesn't reboot, it shuts down. When I restart it, I am back at the screen that asks to launch repair. Any advice?
Nancy W nope 😂
mine could not promt the command prom after press the shift key 5 time, pop up a 'do you want to turn on sticky keys' box instead. appreciate your kind help
It must not have saved. I would try repeating the steps!
@@olivercanham same here . And when I started all over again I can’t find sethc
I get a Recovery Manager screen instead of the option to select and view the problems to access the link. What do i do?
it says here after typing the username
net user
[username [password : *] [optional] [/DOMAIN]
That's what I got to
@@robertreyes6456 found out a solution, on net user administrator should show up, do net user administrator * and should be able change password on that, then in CMD you put net user administrator /active:yes and hit enter then reboot your computer and the administrator should be on logon screen for you to be able to log into
Thanks for additional tips but my pw wont save.... any ideas??
I am a bit computer challenged, and I was also somewhat hesitant when Oliver was having me rename a file and copy and paste, but I went over his instructions a few times and then followed them carefully. The lap top was my wife’s, she no longer used it, and I wanted it as a backup at work. Everything worked out great..no need for a recovery/password disk..thanks so much.
I don't see launch startup repair - I only see Safe mode, Safe mode with networking and Safe mode with command prompt.
Same! Every video I watch, they have the launch option, and it isn't showing up for me whatsoever.
@@prettystranger23 you have too press f12 when you turn your laptop on because I helped u pls give me a sub
You press f12 when the laptop turns on
@@ANNONYMOUSUSER thanks for the hint, I will try that 👍
@@johnking5874 did it work?
I can not view problem details because I never get this screen option. my repairs seem to have been solved by the disk repair process. Please advise!!!
Got locked out of my computer cause couldn't remember password, so I followed this video for it to fix it, and it worked awesome 👌.
Bravo to Rikkytech07 on iG is pretty good.
I looked through a bunch of videos. Nothing explained how to do this until I came across this one. He explained it clearly showed pictures of each step. And I was finally able to get my computer unlocked. This is the best help I have hand I highly recommend this method if you were in the same mess I was.
Tried all this, got the command prompt, entered my username * and then got:
The syntax of this command is
NET USER
[username [password : *] [options]] [/DOMAIN]
username {password : *} /ADD [options] [/DOMAIN]
username [/DELETE] [/DOMAIN]
username [/TIMES:{times : ALL}]
Any ideas?
I also face this problem
What a do, please help me
Dude, did you solve it? I'm having the exact same problem as you...
bro it's exactly same as me
Luke Brzeczek same
There is no "Launch Start up Repair(recommended)" option in my laptop while I am doing this it only shows that "start windows normally "..... what to do now..??? Can you please help me out of this...???
Same goes for me :(
@@sandeepbhadani7931 same for me
Yay thank you so much I finally got it to work!!! I did this on a Dell Inspiron mini
Mine didn't work... after typing net user. The names don't match.
When I said Net user (name) * I had to type a new password which I did, And when i clicked enter it says Acces Denied
you need to have admin
Have anyone had trouble with da sticky
Man you don't know how helpful this was for me. Thank you and bless your soul.
Thank you so much sir, I forgot password of my office's PC. I was depressed from last day and now after watching this video I successfully changed my PC's password without losing my important files.
Thank you so much again.
When use this way, are the data is saved?
I did everything like u said but when i press shift 5 times the comand box doesn’t pop up please help 😭
I would recommend re-trying the steps. If this still doesn't work, try another method on youtube as there are many. Let me know if you still need help as I can direct you to other methods!
hi everyone ,if anyone else trying to find out forgotten password windows try Cypouris Code Recovery Coach(do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my partner got excellent success with it.
sally miller why be so rude maybe this person is computer illiterate think about that maybe others aren’t as smart as you
You've got a foul mouth from dropping the 'F'-bomb. Grow up and show some respect and consideration and clean up your language and your filthy mouth. Your insults & rudeness and your obvious lack of grammar skills show all of us that you didn't do very well in school. We don't know you, but you have clearly shown everyone the type of person you are. Learn the golden rule and live it. Make it a good day every day.
@@mrwinky696969 agreed
I dont get the impromptu press dont send
This worked thank you so much !!
Glad to hear it helped!
I got all the way to the end where your computer is supposed to boot back up... and it didn't. OMG
Me too did you ever fix it
I have Windows 7 Professional and when i interrupt windows starting, it show me different options, but none of them is Startup Repair. What do i do? I reset my password a long time ago and it worked fine as usual, but one day it just couldn't log in with that password, like it went mad. I don't have any accounts, just usual laptop password. It's and HP7000. Do you have any idea what should I do? Great video, explained very well. Thanks! :)
Recovery Manager window pop up after the startup repair process.
Greeting I am following the procedure, but It hit on the Recovery Manager page right after i launch the startup repair. The recovery Manager gives me some options such as:
1-----I need help immediately
-Microsoft system restore
- Microsoft startup repair
-System recovery
2-----I'd like to take precautions
-File backup program
I don't know how to proceed from here. Please help........

Brice OTKM idk y but everytime i try to click the down arrow on the 3rd part to click the link, it pops up support thing, any tips?
There are several components to resetting a password. One resource I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Cunning code formula (google it if you're interested) definately the no.1 info i've heard of. look at this interesting website.
Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else wants to uncover admin password recovery windows try Ichordo Windows Code Fixer(should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got great results with it.

@Vũ Nguyễn Minh I would always avoid deleting files. This way nothing gets removed.
This video was great thank you I really appreciate it🙏🏾
My Windows file is in BOOT:X ? I have tried going onto that etc and looked for sethc and untilman but no hope

f you have forgotten your password just load windows normally. At the login screen hit shift key continuously to get to command prompt. Once in command prompt type NET USER (USERNAME) (NEWPASSWORD) AND HIT ENTER. Then Login normally using your new password
i used this at command prompt - net user administrator 1234 and rebooted the pc and login as Administrator with password 1234
I used original win 2003 CD to load the computer
you can also check the computer users by typing - NET USER at the command prompts
hope it helps someone
Im almost there but the usernames i know are jot found. How would i know my username used in the laptop since i cannot remember my password. Please help

I'm not getting the "cannot repair this computer automatically" screen that has the "View problem details" tab. Please assist.
Same. Been trying it
Hello ! I have an azerty keyboard and the shift key (press 5 times) does not respond, so I cannot access the command prompt. Any idea? Thanks, I'm desperate :(
So for me it runs the repair and i cancel the first pop up window and it continues but the next window does not show as yours does with options. There's only one link that says click here for diagnostic and repair details. I click and it gives the details but no links. If i close that window my only option is to click finish so it'll restart or if i do nothing the timer will restart automatically. Can you help please?
Before I can select cancel, it keeps jumping to HP recovery manager. :( Cancelling from there doesn't yield the same results that are shown. :(
This worked for me up to command prompt. I found my user name but it would not allow me to change the password. I found a guest account under command prompt but I cannot use the guest account under the log in screen. It only shows my main account and command prompt won't let me change password. What do I do?
For those who had a problem with the name of the computer To write this ( hostname) order to find out the name of the computer
