peliqueen,
Is your daughter's pc networked and is this a wfwg client log on password?
If it's a net password and you're not connecting to other computers
you can disable that entirely.
If you mean one of the screen saver passwords,
you can disable that by editing Control.ini ...
The password is stored in encrypted format after the "Password=" label...
Look for that line and delete it. Then look for the label "PWProtected=1"
and change its value to 0 (zero.) Save the file and reboot.
If you need more info on doing this, or if these aren't the passwords you mean,
please post back with the dialog messages you get when entering the password.
You mention that your daughter "changes and plays with the password feature often"
and "can't get into her PC"... Just wondering at what point the password prompt appears...

I'm pretty sure Windows 3.11 uses the standard pwl file. Try booting from a boot disk, changing to the Windows directory and delete files named *.pwl. Do the same in C:\Windows\System.
