You can Google search

Reset Vista Password | How to Set and Reset Windows Vista Password

I remember I read a nice idea sharing about this title before, hope you get your answer.



And U can reset the password on your own with less than 5 minutes:



Prepare two things:

a CD or USB flash drive, Windows Password Recovery Tool 3.0

Step 1: Download and install Windows Password Recovery Tool 3.0

Step 2: Burn a password reset CD/USB with the program.

Step 3: Remove password with the created CD/USB.



Good luck! Hope this helps you and save you time and the frustration!

Does the computer have more than one administrator account? and if so does the other user have a Password?



One way you could try. Turn off the computer than turn it back on. As its booting up keep pressing F8. a window will appear thats all black with white text. Click "Safe mode with Networking" it'll start windows. Select the "Administrator" account. The user name will be administrator. that one should not have a password to it. from that user go to the Control Panel. Select USERS. click on MANAGE ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Select the admin's account the one that won't give you his password and hit Remove Password. >:) mission complete. just restart the computer and it will be back to normal just no password on the administrators account.



Don't log into your account. log into the Default Admin while in safemode and networking the account named "ADMINISTRATOR"



Oh and if you have trouble just removing the password. then Manage another account. Select yours. and set it as an administrator.

You can try to reset the password in Vista with command prompt.

1. Press F8 to enter Advanced Boot Options just before the Windows loading screen appears.

2. Choose Safe Mode with Command Prompt.

3. Log in with an administrator account when you can see the log on screen.

4. Type net user in the command prompt and then hit Enter. All the Windows account user names will be listed for you.

5. Type net user Helen 123 and hit Enter.



‘Helen’ is your locked Windows account user name. And ‘123’ is the new password you want to reset for the account.

If you cannot enter the safe mode, I’m afraid you have to create a password reset disk with a CD or USB drive as follows. Otherwise, reinstallation will be your only choice.



Step 1: Download and install Windows Password Reset Deluxe in any computer from its official site

Step 2: Use CD/DVD/USB drive to create a password disk via the program.

Step 3: Boot your locked computer from CD/DVD or USB

Step 4: Reset Windows password with the burned CD/DVD or USB flash drive.

Hello



If somebody change the default admin password that's mean you can't install the game until the administrator gave you the password.



If no body changed the default password all you have to do right click on the setup file the click on RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR should work.



If still didn't work just let me know.

Go and down load PCLoginNow. Yes, it's loose. Boot from it and the person account. Check the field "password is empty" and click on OK. Reboot again to vista and you would not be immediate of password and could log correct in.

I just want to say that WIndows password is not safe, some tools can remove it easily such as Windows Password Rescuer.

But you can just use it to recover your lost/forgot password.You also can use Windows Password Rescuer to add a new user with administrator privilege to your Windows without login. With this New user account you can logon your locked computer directly.



If your system is Windows 7/vista/xp,you can use "Windows Password Rescuer Personal/Professional'.
