@mancat Well, all the users are administrators on their own machines, but not on the network. We use Novell, so the windows-rights can be as admin as they want and still get nowhere.The administrator-account is usually protected with a password only known by the IT-dept., but on odd occations they are not.Usually when they f**k up we just use norton ghost on the machine, but sometimes password recovery is needed.
Compare to many password recovery solutions. Following solution is the best and the easiest one. 1.Download Windows Password Unlocker from Password Unlocker Official site <a class="user" href="http://www.passwordunlocker.com/products/wpu.html." rel="nofollow">http://www.passwordunlocker.com/products/wpu.html.</a> 2.Decompress the Windows password unlocker and note that there is an .ISO image file. Burn the image file onto an blank CD with the burner freely supported by Password Unlocker. 3.Insert the newly created CD into the locked computer and re-boot it from the CD drive. 4.After launched the CD, a window pop up with all your account names(if you have several accounts); select one of the accounts that you have forgotten its password to reset it. Just one press, you have removed the password.
I ever used a windows password recovery software to bypass windows password,it need not to reinstall or reformat the windows OS, with no data lose,by using "Any Windows Password Recovery 3.0 ",its easier,you could have a try.You could get the windows password recovery tool from the reference link: <a class="user" href="http://www.anypasswordrecovery.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.anypasswordrecovery.com</a>
The easy and fast way is to create a Windows password reset bootable CD/DVD or USB flash drive to reset forgotten Windows password, i have created a bootable USB flash drive with the tool Windows Password Breaker http://www.recoverwindowspassword.com/ and reset my administrator password successfully.
hum`` if you master computer technical so well,then i would recommend Ophcrack ,the free windows password recovery tool with complexity on operation.if not, you should try some Charge software, although they cost a little money , but they are now popular in the market because of their simple manipulation and high quality. It would reset the local administrator and user passwords on any Windows system quickly. In my eyes, It's worth a try!
