Where I work we use Activ@'s password recovery software. There is no machine that we have used it on that it didn't work. Granted it isn't free but it is real fast and easy to use.<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
I had a issue with vista where there was an issue where I changed some network settings i.e. joined a new workgroup this caused a problem with some legacy software (funny that). The login process on the laptop never had any passwords i.e. just logged in. When I rolled back 5 days using vista system restore the machine boots now asking for a password. Never had login screen before for password when I issue a blank password it asks to &quot;contact network administrator&quot;. I now cannot log into laptop.

Vista Ultimate completed system restore rolled back 5 days now wants password to log in but there was no password ever created on laptop

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
