My PC OS and Forticlient Info -------------------------------------------- 1- Forticlient Endpoint Security 4.1.2.138 on window 7 64 bit. 2- Window 7 Extreme Edition R1 PC Thank you in advance for your help and assistance. Regards Azahary

    One thing you can try is to reboot the PC in Safe Mode and then go to the registry to delete the password under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Note\Fortinet\FortiClient\FA_FCM Let me know how it goes. Regards, L.C
