What is the Administrator password for Windows XP?

In every installation of Windows XP, there is a built-in and default account named Administrator, which is equivalent to super user or root in Unix/Linux system. By default, the default Administrator account has no password.

Right-click on My Computer. Click on Manage. Expand Local Users and Groups. Click on Groups. Double click on Administrators. Click on Add. Enter the account name on this machine that you want to assign administrative privileges to.

In Windows XP Pro, that Administrator account is not listed on the login screen, unless it’s the only account on the machine. You can still log into it, though … by rebooting into ‘Safe Mode’. Press F8 when Windows begins to boot, and you’ll be given a list of boot options, one of which is ‘Safe Mode’.

In the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools . In Administrative Tools, open Local Security Policy . In the Local Security Settings window, expand the tree for Local Policies and select User Rights Assignment . Right-click the required user right, and select Properties.

Right-click the required user right, and select Properties. The appropriate properties window appears (for example, Log on as a batch job ). To add permissions: Click Add User or Group. The software opens the Select Users or Groups window. Specify the user ID that requires this permission.

Open ‘My Computer’. Click System Properties on the toolbar , and Click here to activate Windows in the activation area. If it is asking for the administrator password or a verification, type password and Click Continue to proceed further. The user gets a choice to select the Windows XP activation method.
