We all know that we must have a strong password to protect are private data. A strong password must have letters, numbers, and symbols. The greater variety of characters that you have in your password, the harder it is to guess.
You can use some online password generator to get a strong password. But did you know that in Windows Xp you can generate a random password.
Here's how:
- Go to Run on the Start menu and type ‘cmd’ (without the quotes)
- A DOS like command prompt window will open. You must see the flashing cursor.
- At the command prompt type ‘net user administrator /random’ (without the quotes)
Note: There is space before the slant(/)
Command prompt will now generate a strong password for you to use.
You can also use this if you forgot your admin password
Please Take Note Of The Generated Password It will Reset Your Admin Password
