How do I change my network password on win98 after it has been reset? I know in win2k and xp you just hit control alt and delete to change it but what about 98?

THank you!

Go to c:\windows and delete your current login.pwl file (or delete *.pwl files).

Then reboot and reinput your old login and new password... and you should be good-to-go.

Its in the Passwords applet in Control Panel. That's all you get for one point.

If you have forgotten Net & Window Password, Go inside with Cancel (without giving passwords). then find the *.pwl files. Delete the login.pwl or *.pwl files and restart the PC. It will ask to set your Network password and Window Password. Are you satisfied ? If not mail to speak_me_now@yahoo.com.
