If you forget the password that you have previously set up to protect the configuration settings of ActiveExit, you can reset (erase) it by choosing the Start - Programs - ActiveExit - Reset Password command from the Windows Start menu. Or, simply run the Active-Exit.exe file with the command line switch /PW to achieve the same result.

This command displays a prompt for your registration information (registered name, number of copies included in the license, and your license key). If you have not registered ActiveExit yet, simply press the Continue button, and it will reset the password (that is, the password will be erased).

Having erased the password, run ActiveExit configuration utility, and use its Security page to set up a new password. Please remember or write it down this time!

If you don't want anyone to be able to reset this password, you may wish to delete the Reset Password shortcut from the Start menu. Be sure you know how to run Active-Exit.exe with the /PW command line switch before deleting these shortcuts!

Or, better yet, register ActiveExit (that is, purchase a license for using ActiveExit in the licensed mode). This way, only you will be able to use the Reset Password command, since it will not allow to erase the password unless a valid license key is entered into it first.
