XP log on
« on: July 21, 2008, 03:33:54 AM »
I have a password for logging on to my computer (Windows XP account), but I have forgot it. It doesn't matter that much, cause I have set Tweak UI to remember the password and log on automatically. However, it doesn't feel very safe. For example I could make a mistake once and stop the automatic log on, or I could be in need to stop it.

Please let me know if there is any way for me to make a back-up plan, in case I might need it.

Just make another admin user account, log on to that one, and change your original pass.

Just create a reset account password using a floppy disk.
