    I'm having trouble creating a password reset disk


    I'm using the search function in the taskbar. I type in "Create password reset disk." Then I click on the only option (which is correct) but nothing happens.

    1. What could be wrong?

    2. Is there another way to create this disk?

    Thank you......

    :)

    Nisko,

    A Password reset disk only applies to a local user account not an MSAccount-linked user account.
    - Searching allows non-local user accounts to find the PRD creation wizard. This is a bug. I don't know if anyone has told MS.
    - The PRD creation wizard appears, for local user accounts only, at Control panel, User accounts, User accounts [again, if nec]
    - The PRD creation wizard works for local user accounts only
    - The PRD, for local user accounts only, is not entirely useless. It is an expensive method of emulating a piece of paper with the password written on it.

    Your other problems should be resolved by these tutorials

    But, if not, please would you restate the remaining issues because it's all got a bit murky for me.
