Windows cannot change your password - BUT IT DID.

Posted: 04-28-2008, 12:07 PM

Hi all

I'm currently using Vista Home Premium with 1 admin account and 1 gues
account

Sadly when I went to change my password for my admin account, I wa
prompted saying that my password was unable to be changed. I though
nothing of it. I tried to change it again but it said my "current
password is incorrect? It was right the first time

I am forced to conclude Windows has changed my password.
I use my previous password - NOT WORKING
I use the password I tried to change it to - NOT WORKING

So I shut down my computer, only to open it the next day with ever
password attempt failing

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Can anyone recommend any fix
All I need is my files back, even if I do have to re-install Window
itself

I really need my account back. It has my whole life on there; sadly no
backed up

Your help and patience is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Melissa
