Answer» hi, Use the following steps to start Windows 7 in Safe Mode when the computer is off:The hidden administrator should be visible. Also see: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17419/windows-7-advanced-startup-options-safe-mode Quote from: DaveLembke on August 26, 2016, 09:02:53 AM Do you have an antivirus installed to run a scan? And anything detected? Yep I have avg and the Norton that comes with my cable provider. Scanned and nothing.. Quote from: Geek-9pm on August 26, 2016, 11:00:38 AM Did you do this?The hidden administrator should be visible. I was trying this... But after I hear the beep... But ill try it as soon as I turn on the computer later... I heard windows 10 automatically disables that f8 thing? Also I've tried the windows 10 way to get to safe mode (shift+click restart") I went to the boot mode , pressed restart but it doesn't pop up with a safe mode option... Only a blue screen flashes and windows starts up as normal.... But I'll try the F8 key as soon as I turn on computer... I think k I've read that someone else messed with the netplwiz application and this HAPPENED to them as well... So if I can only get it in safe mode ill probably be able to fix this by going back into netplwiz... It's Shift +F8 for safemode... Quote from: patio on August 26, 2016, 06:24:55 PM It's Shift +F8 for safemode... ive tried multiple times.. mashing the two keys at the same time.. then holding them... nothing works UPDATE* I've enabled the F8 safe mode through command prompt under the recovery mode i went into command prompt and type "C:" press enter... then type "BCDEDIT /SET {DEFAULT} BOOTMENUPOLICY LEGACY" press enter.. that enabled the f8 key boot menu..... so i restart the computer... when the manufacture's screen comes up i do shift+f8 ... the next screen that comes up has the REGULAR type text... "choose operating system" i choose windows 10.. its says "press f8 key to see advance booting options for selected operating system" i press f8 it restarts the computer..... it doesn't bring up safemode menu... ugh... what now...i think i've given up... im currently saving everything i want to keep in a flash drive... going to reinstall windows, CAUSE i've tried the recover but keep my personal files.. and it failed... From time to time people come here for password changes. Some, like myself, are reluctant to give out 'hacks' to bypass the security of Windows. For a number of reasons. One: Elsewhere it has been documented tart Windows 10 has options available help users use passwords.Two: The "hacks" destroy something that is needed. Sorry your had a bad bad experience. Epilogue: Windows 10 allowsyou to give a hint. Possible easy password with hint: Password = NewYorkNewYork Hint = NYNY Make your password easy for you.
