Minecraft password recovery. Change the password on the Minecraft server through your personal account and in the client

Minecraft players are famous for their collecting and storing a lot of things. This does not include what buildings and mechanisms they create. It will be annoying for anyone, even a novice player, to lose everything they have. This can happen due to a ban on the server or griefing (sabotage), but most often there is a loss of access to the character. Fraudsters and hackers use different methods to find out or select passwords for player accounts and appropriate them for themselves. Of course, bans and griefers can be avoided by playing honestly and following safety rules, but with attackers things are more serious.

Many users often create deliberately simple and weak passwords, which are easy for hackers to guess, which is what they do. To avoid this situation, you should change your Minecraft password.

Password requirements

Password requirements in Maina are no different from any other services. Attackers are everywhere, so you have to come up with complex combinations. Below is a short list with specific tips for creating a good secret combination:

1. You should not use popular and common combinations of symbols, such as “qwerty”, “159753”, “qazwsx”, etc., attackers have known about them for a long time and if you use such a combination, the chances of losing your account are very high.
2. The key must be easy to remember so that you can remember it without any problems. A complex key is good, but what's the point if the user himself cannot remember it.
3. In addition to the fact that the key should be light, it shouldn't be short. The recommended key length is from 10 to 16 characters. This will be optimally difficult to hack and easy enough to remember on your own.
4. When creating a combination you should use both numbers and letters different register. You need to understand that the keys “dima178” and “DiMA178” different passwords and the second is an order of magnitude more difficult.
5. Do not use the same secret combination on different services. From the point of view of remembering, this is convenient, but there is a high probability that if one account is hacked, you will lose all the others.

After carefully reading all the tips, you can proceed to changing your Minecraft password.

How to change the password in Minecraft on the server

To change the login key in Minecraft, go to the server, switch the keyboard layout to English language and do the following steps:

Change your password on the official Minecraft website

In order to change the secret combination on the official website you need to:

How to recover Minecraft password on the official website

If, after repeated attempts to log into your account on the official website of the game, nothing works, then most likely the password was entered incorrectly or attackers gained access to the account. However, it is possible to restore access. To do this, use the “Forgot your password?” function:

After which the key will be changed and you can easily log in to the site.

Today, the director of a neighboring enterprise asked me for help to reset his password. windows administrator server 2008. It turns out that he gave the employee the password for the admin account so that she could work in 1C. Do not create a new user so that a temporary employee can work for a couple of days)))))).

I don’t know how or why she did it, but she managed to change the admin password. Moreover, she assured that she did not do this and in general she is “YOU” with computers. Well, if they ask, then you need to help, especially since an extra “penny” won’t hurt.

In principle, there is nothing complicated. As in the article with, we will need to replace the file. But just as in the case of the seven, I couldn’t do it because I didn’t have it on hand installation disk With Windows Server 2008.

But I always have some on hand on board. I inserted the flash drive, booted into the LiveCD, opened “Computer” and voila, drive “C” is visible and available for reading/writing.

Now go to the \Windows\System32\ folder and find the file there Utilman.exe

Rename it to Utilman-backup.exe, so that you can restore it later.

Now we find the file cmd.exe copy it and paste it into the same directory so that it looks like in the screenshot

We will not touch the original cmd.exe file, but we will now rename the copy to Utilman.exe.

After these steps, the command launched by Utilman will open the command line. This is exactly what we need. Reboot the server and wait for the window for entering credentials. When it appears, click on the icon in the lower left corner of the screen

It was this button that displayed the accessibility panel, in which you can open on-screen keyboard etc. But, after replacing the files, it will open the command line.

This article discusses the situation of recovering a domain administrator password. For example, the controller was selected Windows domain Server 2008R2 (no need to be modest). Naturally, I don’t know the account passwords and I admit that they are quite complex, and therefore there is no particular point in checking the “sex,god,123,password” options.

Going to Google and entering “Reset Password Domain Administrator” in the search bar, the first line takes me to the Israeli MVP website, which describes in detail the process of resetting the domain administrator password. One thing, to use this method you need to know the DSRM administrator password. For those who have forgotten, I’ll explain that this account is stored locally on the domain controller and is used in cases when your directory service is “very bad”, i.e. recovery. But alas, I don’t know this password.

Therefore, I open the second bookmark in the browser and again enter the text “linux cd for reset administrator password” into Google and look for the image boot disk which will allow me to reset my DSRM password. And on the website of the American specialist Petter Nordahl-Hagen I find required disk. You can download it.

Select a section hard drive with the system. I have two of them and this is not surprising. Windows Server 2008 R2 creates a 200 megabyte partition in case Bitlocker is enabled.

I select the option “ Password Reset” and press Enter.

Next I say that I want to edit the account.

I indicate that I am interested in an account Administrator.

And in the end I come up with a request for what to do with this account. I reset the password to empty, although you can simply set your own password.

Don’t forget to save the changes you make, otherwise your actions will be of no use. After saving, I go to reboot and when the computer starts, I press F8 to get to the selection of download options.

Naturally, I select the download option “ Directory Service Restore Mode” to log in as a DSRM administrator.

I select “login with a different account” i.e. local login and enter if I changed the password or leave the DSRM administrator password blank.

Next I do the following: create on disk C: folder named “ tools” and copy into it the contents of a set of utilities borrowed from MVP, although all these utilities are in the Resource Kit from Microsft. You can download it. And I add the file to this folder cmd.exe, taken from the catalog C:\Windows\System32.

Then I open the command line and run the command

instsrv PassRecovery “C:\tools\srvany.exe”

This will give me the opportunity to run srvany.exe, as a service with a name PassRecovery and it will start with SYSTEM privileges.

Only a little remains. Open the registry editor and expand the branch

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\PassRecovery

This branch was created when installing the service a step above.

In it we create a folder for our future keys with the name Parameters. That's just the name.

I create two registry keys with names Application And AppParameters.

Application points to let to command line in our folder.

AppParameters describes what should be executed on this command line. And the command “ will be executed there net user” and reset the password account administrator(this time domain) on Pa$$w0rd. Such a wonderful password was not chosen by chance, it simply meets the complexity requirements that will be checked when the password is reset.

name: Application
type: REG_SZ (string)
value: c:\tools\cmd.exe

name: AppParameters
type: REG_SZ (string)
value: /k net user administrator Pa$$w0rd /domain

Finally I find the service I created PassRecovery and its properties I put a tick “ Allow Service to interact with desktop" You can reboot in normal mode.

When I booted and made sure that the password was reset, the service must be stopped and deleted, followed by all files from the C:\tools folder.

net stop PassRecovery
sc delete PassRecovery

Conclusion: The method is clumsy (+ button accordion), but as effective as a Kalashnikov assault rifle.

Many gamers do not know how to change the password in Minecraft. Each player approaches this task, albeit not immediately.

The thing is that servers usually give out passwords that are not very memorable and convenient.

A it is impossible to change them in any settings, because this game is special in every sense, including in matters of all kinds of settings.

Let's look at the procedure for changing the account access key.

Changing the key step by step

This procedure looks like this:

1 Create your new password immediately.

2 Open the console by pressing the button «/» , it is also called "slash".

3 Enter a command in the following format: “/changepassword [current key] [new key].” That is, if you now log in using the key "ghbdtn2", but want to change it to "ghbdtn", then the command will look like this: "/changepassword ghbdtn2 ghbdtn". This is shown in Figure 1.

These instructions are relevant for MineZ: Villager VS Zombie servers, as well as DayZ, Area 52 and servers with creative 1.5.2.

If you are using the BuildTeam or MineZ: Land server, you must enter "changepassword", but just "password".

That is, the command will look like this: "/password [current key] [new key]".

In this case, you also need to go to the central hub.

Advice: Try both instructions. One of them will definitely work in your case.

After successfully completing the above instructions, a corresponding notification will be sent.

What if I don't remember my old password?

In this case, you need to contact support and describe your problem. After this, it will be restored and you can safely change it.

Perhaps the administrators themselves will change your login key.

About choosing a combination

To keep your login key secure, it is advisable to follow a few simple instructions, namely:

• length – minimum 16 characters;
• use different case (large and small characters);
• use different languages for words, but only in Latin;
• use the key only for this game;
• change it every few months.

In this case, the possibility of account hacking will be minimal. This is especially true for experienced players who have invested a lot into the game.
