I'm on my Windows 7 computer and want to set up .NET Framework. However it's asking for an administrator password but I have no idea what it can be. I really need the .NET Framework. I hope there's a portable version but I'm worried there isn't.

Does anyone know how to run the setup without knowing the administrator password?

Tried programs and trick:

• Universal Extractor - it's only extracted not installed but they said it could install
• cmd - tried all commands
• Some password hack/viewer - none of them is working
• Searched the whole computer for some passwords or things that can help

To install .NET you must have administrator privileges. Perhaps your administrator account is just disabled.

1. Try to boot into Safe Mode (F8 at startup) - the administrator account gets enabled there
2. Login as Administrator (maybe no password)
3. Go to users and give your account administrator privileges (add to Administrators group) or activate the Administrator user permanently

Login as a user who is a member of group Administrators and you will not be asked for a password in the UAC prompt. Instead, you will simply have to click Yes.
