If you have powershell installed on XP I'd suggest you use that instead - it's much more readable. But VBScript has the advantage on being installed on every supported PC-Windows by default. It also activates the administrator and disabled expiration. Note that this snippet only works on Windows-Versions where the admin-user is called "Administrator". If you use French, for example, you have to use 'Administrateur': dim PW PW = "myPassword" Const ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD = &h10000 dim objUser, objUserFlags, objPasswordExpirationFlag set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://./Administrator") objUser.AccountDisabled = false objUserFlags = objUser.Get("UserFlags") objPasswordExpirationFlag = objUserFlags OR ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD objUser.Put "userFlags", objPasswordExpirationFlag objUser.SetPassword PW objUser.SetInfo -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
