Locked out of Windows XP, how do I get back in?

How to Get in to my computers that my parents locked with there user name and password?

  • my parents locked the computer with a user name and password and I cant figure out how to get in it would be great if some one know like a master password or something like that its for a windows XP edition computer Thanks

  • Answer:

    I think this might help. It works here on my computer, I think it will work for you too. So, don't even think you can find the password for your mom's and dad's user accounts. Unless they keep them somewhere on the desk, off course. Just start Windows in safe mode. If you don't know how to do that, push the power button on your computer, and then push and hold F8 button on the keyboard. After couple of seconds, instead of the Windows loading screen, you will see a screen that will allow you to choose different start options. You should pick the safe mode, press enter, and after that besides your mom and dad's account there will be account called Administrator, which doesn't require password. Just log on with that account, go to the controll panel, under user accounts, create your own account with your own password, and then restart the computer, and that's it. You will have an account, that your mom and dad couldn't delete, because you will be the only one who knows the password. Off course, they can beat the hell out of you, but that's another story. If you don't want to be cought, just do the same safe mode thing, log in as Administrator, and delete the account you have created, so nobody can see that you've been messing with the computer. That's it. Another hacker has been born :)

I don't know the user name, but the password is probably *punctuation*.

Ask them the user name and password. If they've locked it, there is probably a good reason.... to keep you safe and shielded from improper usage.

Well, they obviously locked it for a reason. If they wanted you to be able to get into it, they would have told you the password. Don't violate their wishes.

im not computer nerd or geek or something but if the computer is locked u should get a screwdriver and try to open it. if theres a lock in the back get a hammer or crowbar and smash it until it opens.
