Setting DD Password

Thread needs solution

I am presently having trouble using disk director; it requests a password. This is new for me. Neither my administrator password nor my Acronis on-line password work. I tried to get something requesting info on Disk Director Password, without usable results. Help Please!

Hello Bonnell,

Thank you for using Acronis Disk Director Suite 10.0

If I correctly understood, you launch the program and see the password requirement, and you are unable to bypass it.

To resolve the issue you should modify one registry key to blank password for Acronis Disk Director:

- Click Start->Run;
- Issue the regedit command;
- Open the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Acronis\Acronis Disk Director\MAIN

Set the following string for the password value:
" 16 85 56 85 37 85 33 85 44 85 5 85 52 85 38 85 38 85 34 85 58 85 39 85 49 85"

NB: There should be a space gap before the first digit. There should also be two space gaps between the digits 85 and 5. The string needs to be entered without quotation marks.

The issue should be resolved. Please let me know if you need a further assistance.

Thank you.
