Choosing a HP desktop computer when decided to buy a computer? Nice choice! Forgot your HP desktop computer login password after a long time of no use? Feel sorry for it bringing you bad mood. But now you can get rid of that easily with the guide I give in this article. Now let’s see how you can reset HP desktop computer password for Windows 7.

No matter which Operating System your HP desktop PC is running, Windows 8, 7, Vista, XP, Windows Server 2012, 2008, 2003 or 2000, the following methods I recommend are all applicable. Here only take Windows 7 password reset as an example.

Method 1: Reset HP Desktop Computer Password for Windows 7 by another Administrator Account

To adopt this method, its precondition is that you must have another administrator account you can access to. If you have, then follow the following steps to operate.
1. Login to that administrator account whose password you remember to get into your HP desktop.
2. Click Start button and choose Run.
3.. When the Run box pops up, you type in “control userpasswords2” and click OK to continue.
4. Then you will see a User Accounts window, here you select the user account that you want to reset password for and click Reset Password item.
5. After that a small Reset Password window will show, now you can reset a new password for it by typing in a new password and confirm it. Lastly click OK to finish.

If there isn’t another administrator on your computer or you have no password for it, in fact, there is still a built-in administrator account helpful. The built-in administrator account allows you to login without a password if you have never changed its password. Now follow the following steps.
1. First of all, you start your locked HP desktop normally.
2. When it comes to Windows welcoming/login screen, press Ctrl + Alt + Del twice to login the built-in account.
3. When you have login your locked HP desktop already, you can voluntarily and easily reset your lost or forgotten password from Control Panel or the way above or other workable ways.
