Answer 1

Make sure that you do the following on your computer or another computer with the owners permission only.



XP:

1 >> Log into safe mode

2 >> Log in as the computer Administrator, "Administrator" for the username

3 >> Leave the password blank

4 >> Control panel and change the password for your account



If that does not work:

All Version:

1 > Get Trinity Rescue Kit

2 >> Download the ISO version - http://trinityhome.org/Home/index.php?wpid=5&front_id=12

3 >> Burn the ISO to a CD using an ISO burner

4 >> Bootup from the CD

5 >> Remove the password



If you don't want to change the password:



1 > Get a program called Ophcrack

2 >> Download the liveCD (ISO) - http://www.ophcrack.sourceforge.net/

3 >> Burn the ISO to a CD using an ISO burner

4 >> The Live CD's come with the free rainbow tables, so you might need to download other tables (cost money)

4 >> Bootup from the CD

5 >> Crack the SAM and System file

If you could use another computer which could download from Internet, you can create a windows password recovery disk. Third party windows password recovery software windows login recovery could create such a disk. Only four steps:



Step 1: Download Windows Login Recovery and install it on the available computer

Step 2: Run the software and use it to burn a Windows password recovery disk (you could burn the file into the blank CD/DVD or USB flash drive)

Step 3: Change the BIOS setting of your locked computer to make it boot from the CD-ROM (Start computer and press F2 or Delete to enter BISO setup)

Step 4: Boot your locked computer from the created disk and remove the Windows password



It is easy and safe. Hope to help you.
