Help! I'm locked out!!!

I did some tinkering with Tweak UI and now cannot get logged on. I get the welcome screen and my administrator screen but must place a password in the space to proceed. I didn't think I had ever put a password in my account but the hint seems to indicate I did. So, I put that password in and get a window that says I cannot get logged on because of account restrictions. How did my administrator account get restrictions placed on it? I am the administrator! Does anyone have any idea how I can unlock this and get into my computer??

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Did you try just hitting enter (i.e. no password)?

 

Or "Cancel"??

Dont know what could have hapened anyway avoiding autologon in tweakui is by holding the shift key while system starts.
This may not work as you dint have any pasword and therefore tweakui autologin doesnt apply.

 

How do you login usually?Is your username administrator or someting else what other accounts do you have?

 

This can be used to remove/Blank or change windows password, Admin or user, recommend blanking then once in windows can rename or disable password login.

This utility will remove some windows updates, so after using reinstall updates, all other data is left untouched.
Works for W2k, XP home, XP pro, that uses NTFS file system.
