    Netbook I would like to find out who is the admin their pass.


    I have had a netbook for a while it is my backup i have been to several forum looking at what to do but i just can not figure it out
    This netbook was somebody elses and now they have move out of the state and yes i tried to ask them for their pass when i had it they just put it in for me.
    They have some high security i can not install nor uninstall programs i need/don't need
    I am restricted to go in to folders
    I can not manage accounts
    I am under some other users account (my mom no this was not her netbook)
    i can use two other users accounts my mom and my sisters (it was my sisters first)
    They are all on a domain and if i bring this thing there it will log them out and me in
    I would like to delete the domain and start from the beginning (this is a netbook there is no cd rom)
    where can i find the product key it cam with it i guess
    that's all


    Sorry I saw the edit to late I was just wondering this is my backup my labtop will be here I am having an Internet fubar

    Welcome to the Seven Forums

    The key should be on a sticker on the bottom or under the battery.

    Who owns this netbook? If the owner of the netbook would not give you the password their must be a reason.

    It was my cousins (and sorry if this is not the way to edit) she got a new labtop for Christmas when she was here. When she was here she must have used the same password or something but she would not give it to me. the only other thing I can think of is SECRETS she is using at least half of the gb stored on here. She moved back to Michigan. But I can not even change the time without her pass. Yeah I am going to go with secrets

    1. Boot into safe mode
    2. Press start
    3.type run
    4. in the run menu try typing Control useraccounts2 (i think. It may be Control userpasswords2)
    5. see if you can change the pass from there :)

    Why did she give you the machine and not the password? You could always do a clean install of w7.
