| | RE: forgotten password! Hi AlecGreen; Just after reading yor post I browsed the different discussion groups in Vista amd noticed the very first one is titled "Administration, Accounts and Passwords". I don't have an answer other than to ask if she has both an Administrator and her own User account. If this is the case; ask if she knows the Admin account PW. But you'll have much greater probablility of getting a quality/accurate/helpful answer in the foremention group! Great Days...

Since you are locked out, you may need to do Method Three.
