Just installed - "Your password has expired and just be changed"

Dear all,

I have had a quick search for this and can't see an answer.

Just purchased the software for Mac. Clicked the "start" button:

Windows starts to boot, and then I get "USER - Your password has expired and must be changed", OK OR CANCEL.
Then it asks for old password, new password, confirm etc and has a link "Create a password reset disk".

What password? This is a new install. Have tried all passwords I've used in the last 10 years, no good!

Clicking create password reset disk does nothing. And my Mac doesn't have a disk drive anyway !

I would be very grateful for some assistance.
Thank you!
Adam
 
If it is a vm downloaded from Parallels: try parallels as the password.
If this is the case you should change the password to one of your own choosing.

Fixed

Not sure what the problem was, but easily fixed by removing Windows VM and re-installing. Note, I moved to trash and didn't keep any files. Despite this minor initial teething problem, I am amazed... Awesome software.
