| | Administrative Password I'm in need of some help figuring out what my administrative password for Vista is!!! I work for a small company and the girl that set everything up is no longer here and therefore we cannot access the admin accout and as I'm sure you are all aware you can't do anything without accessing that account. I have looked everywhere and it seems very confusing. I can get by on a computer but I'm not professional. Does anyone know what I can do about this...I've been at it for 2 days and would like to either just get the password and be done with it. Thank you in advance... |

| Vista Business SP1 x64 | Re: Administrative Password The password is whatever it was set to by whoever set it up. You'll need to contact that person, regardless of if they are with the organization anymore. It's true, there are ways to hack into the system - but one, we have no way of knowing if you are asking help for a legitimate use or not, and two - you admitted you are not a professional by any means, and the procedures are very long and complicated and cannot be done by anyone less than a professional. So again, you have to contact the individual who set it up. They are obligated to help you out. |

If you are not on a domain at your work, then you can use Method Three in this tutorial to reset the password. If you are then, you will need to contact the domain Administrator to do this for you.
