• look for Guest. click it if you found it, after you click it it will ask you “Do you want to turn on the guest account?”, click Turn On the Guest Account button. Done.

1. Click Start->Run->Type cmd and click OK.
2. Input the following command and press Enter. Net user guest password
3. Go to Control Panel->User Accounts. Click the Guest account and now you can change the password.

That’s it…it does work for I have done it many times.
