    How do I require a password to open command prompt in safe mode?


    I have a Legion Y740-17IRH Laptop Lenovo - Type 81UG and I am running Windows 11.When I boot in safe mode and go to advanced options, I can open elevated command prompt and access my local drive. This is a security issue as anyone with physical access to my computer can run commands in my drive or enable the built in administrator account. An admin password should be required to open command prompt from safe mode, but on my computer it is does not ask for a password. How do I enable the password?I don't want to have to encrypt my drive, although I know that would be an alternative.

    :)

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    I am repairing a laptop for a friend and I need to access windows in safe mode and the owner has forgotten the password to the main user. I tried logging on with the administrator profile in safe mode but it is not showing up so I was going to use command prompt in safe mode with command prompt but command prompt will not open when I boot that option. Does anyone have any hints for me to figure this out?

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Command prompt is only accessible from the Administrative Profile, this is to prevent general users from accessing and bypassing controls.
    One method is to remove the drive and connect it to another system.
