Bitdefender Install on Windows 11

tzoller

I cannot remember the Admin password. Is there a way to install Total Security package without the Admin Passord on Windows11?

Hello @tzoller

You will need to be in Admin mode, and not as a Guest, Guest account in order to install Bitdefender.

I hope you eventually figure out your password.

Kind regards.

If you've forgotten your admin password, you can try the following steps to recover it:

1) Boot into Safe Mode: Restart your computer and repeatedly press F8 or Shift+F8 during startup to access the Advanced Boot Options menu. Choose Safe Mode with Command Prompt.

2) Enable Built-in Administrator: In the Command Prompt, type net user administrator /active:yes and press Enter.

3) Reset Password: Type net user administrator * and press Enter. You will be prompted to enter a new password.

Additionally, if you're looking to recover or reset your admin password, reaching out to the Microsoft Community (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us) forum is a good idea. They often have detailed guides and active community members who can provide assistance tailored to your specific situation.
