It does the job literally within a few minutes and hasn't failed me to date.

Ok im trying to change the administrator password on it
It's on a domain lets me change the password but the thing is it needs to connect to network but when connecting to internet it says dns check router for connectivity issues

Wait, is this machine part of a domain? Its likely logging into a server that enforces authentication, via AD DS.

That's exactly what it is..
It's linked to a domain but it doesn't connect to the internet something about dns proxy ..
Is there a way to bypass this issue or would it be simpler to reinstall iOS.

I get a syntax command and it shows a help screen

Bootlegronin47 · 04-03-2018, 04:39 PM

I tried net user username {password}

Username could not be found

Just through cmd not the other steps

It shows that line in the syntax help

# net user (note: the username is next to administrator under the line) then type {password} and reset

Example

Cmd

Net user administrator username {odoyle rules}

Update successful

Restart

IT'S THE SAINTS PATS CRACKERS

DON'T ADD THE BRACKETS AND IF YOU DO ADD THE BRACKETS THEY WILL BE A PART OF YOUR PASSWORD

does this really work and you have access to the files on the pc? I don't think so, it will only allow to login.

That's the point- to reset the password and log In to access the PC as you normally would.

sure, but it's also a security problem, so that might be the reason we should always encypt the drive with bitlocker.

It's definitely a security Issue, of which Microsoft have neglected to patch.

Personally, I don't trust any security features native to the Windows platform, In this case namely BitLocker. You never know for sure whether It's backdoored. I use VeraCrypt as my main form of encryption- both boot and removable drives.
