   If you didn't set any password then you simply need to press the [enter]    
   key when promted to enter the password.   
      
   By default, the first account created on any XP, Vista, Windows 7,    
   Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 10 is always an Administrator user. Password i    
   normally optional but most people create one anyway.  I always do.     
   However, if there is no password then try pressing the enter key.   
      
   Hope this helps.
