How To Set Syskey In Windows


SysKey is an in-built Windows utility that can help you secure the Security Accounts Management or SAM database. In case you do not know, the SAM Database stores hashed copies of our user passwords, which is encrypted with a locally stored system key.

To enable Syskey encryption, Click Start button and Click Run



In Run dialog box type Syskey and Click OK



From opened dialog box select Encryption Enabled option and Click Update. When this option is selected, Windows will always encrypt the SAM database.



We have two options here Password Startup and System Generated Password, if you do not want to require a startup password use second option.
  1. Store Startup Key on Floppy Disk To store the system startup password on a floppy disk. This requires that someone insert the floppy disk to start the operating system. This provides the highest level of protection for the SAM database.
  2. Store Startup Key Locally To store the encryption key on the hard disk of the local computer. This is the default option.
Click Password Startup and set password and Click OK




Click OK on success message We have successful setup the Syskey start up password.



Now we have set both password administrator and Syskey.
On next reboot you will get following message.

Startup Password

This computer is configured to require a password in order to start up. Please enter the Startup Password below.



Enter the Syskey password and try to access administrator account with blank password. This time you will get alert message

  1. I was searching for loan to sort out my bills& debts, then i saw comments about Blank ATM Credit Card that can be hacked to withdraw money from any ATM machines around you . I doubted thus but decided to give it a try by contacting {skylinktechnes@yahoo.com} they responded with their guidelines on how the card works. I was assured that the card can withdraw $5,000 instant per day & was credited with $50,000 so i requested for one & paid the delivery fee to obtain the card, i was shock to see the UPS agent in my resident with a parcel{card} i signed and went back inside and confirmed the card work's after the agent left. This is no doubts because i have the card & has made used of the card. This hackers are USA based hackers set out to help people with financial freedom!!
