Hallo there I m using win XP proff, I recently created a new account with a new name & password, as soon as I logged in the next time the settings was totally changed. i had only 3 Icons on desktop. So I tried a method (by typing control passwords2 in run than deleting the created account) & got my settings back….but now the problem is as I start my pc i.e. while logon I need to put the admin password (which I had entered while I created a new acc) below the administrator n then it will loading personal settings as usual.I see password protected in user accounts ie on Administrator icon. I want to delete/reset the password completely. The only thing I need is that I don’t want the password to enter each time I login. 1 method was Direct Boot up Without Typing Password by typing control userpasswords2 in cmd prompt the USER ACCOUNT application opens then On the Users tab, clear the check box “Users Must Enter a User Name and Password to Use This Computer” and then click OK Then this opens a Automatically Log On dialog box Here in Automatically Log On dialog box that appears, we need to type the user name and password for the account we want to be logged on each time you start your computer So again the password are there in registry…...i need to delete them completely So what do I do plzzz guide me….. Thanks

Do a Ctrl+Alt+Del 2 times and you should get a normal NT login window where you can type in Administrator and the password.

The convenient and easy way is to use the Windows Password Reset that can do all the job for you within a few minutes automatically! http://www.resetwindowspassword.com/

I think if you login safe mode as administrator you can go to the control panel and manipulate the admin and the rest of the user passwords. if there is Administrator and 2 users active then there will be a request on which user is to boot. 1 user 1 admin remove the passwords while in safe mode . Try that
