Solved Idiot user needs help with Windows 11 defaultuser0 password


For years, I've had one fix or another for any new PC that has gotten messed up.

But one thing remains: Windows as it comes first from MS and then from the PC manufacturer, is loaded with Bloatware, stipulations, and just a lot of stuff designed to tie you to Mother Microsoft's apron strings.

Give me a brand new PC, laptop or desktop, and I'll dig out my USB Flash Drive, with the latest After Market Windows on it, and do a CLEAN Install.

Today, my favorite OS is Windows "Micro 11", Pro/64. It's small, it's fast, and it has ZERO MS BS. And, best of all, it doesn't come from Microsoft.
I just installed that OS on to an HP Envy Sleekbook, that came to me as an inoperative shell. It had no HD, only 4GB of ram, and a dead main battery and CMOS Battery.
Now, with new batteries, a new Crucial 120GB SSD, and "Micro 11" installed, it's a great running little PC.
My total investment in this little laptop, is less than $100. (NO licenses, keys or passwords)

TechnoMage2021, Wow, that's cool! I didn't know that such a thing as Micro 11 existed. That's very interesting (I used to be a techie [not with PCs] although I am in my 70s now and have few brain cells still firing).

It produces a list of all user accounts [including ones that are only used by Windows itself so don't be worried by the entries in there. I can explain every single entry if you want me to].

I urge you to take no other action yet.

Thanks, Denis.

Unfortunately, I had already started down a different path before I saw your post.
