Imagine losing access to your computer just because you forgot the logon password! Nightmarish as it may seem, forgetting your Windows logon password may leave you feeling quite locked up with little left for you than rebuilding your system all again. It may seem like the end of the world for many, but surely there is a lot of hope. Resetting your forgotten logon passwords on Windows 7/Vista/XP is easy and you can actually work around your system, to regain access. So if, you’re stuck with Windows logon password or wish to reset or remove it, here’s what you can do.

How to Reset Windows 7/Vista/XP Logon Password?

Before you begin the process of password resetting, you’ll first need a different computer with internet access to start your work. You also need a USB stick or a blank CD to make a password reset Live disc that would be used on your locked computer.

Step 1: Make a Password Reset Live Disc

Download the self-extracting archive of Reset Windows Password utility on to your alternate computer. Once downloaded, extract the ISO file (ResetWindowsPwd.iso) from the ZIP file. Feel free to do this using the integrated tool in Windows or a dedicated program like WinZip.

Now you need to burn the ISO image file (ResetWindowsPwd.iso) to a CD or USB stick. There are many free burning programs which can do it easily, such as BurnCDCC, ImgBurn, ISO2Dic, etc.

Step 2: Boot Locked Computer from the Live Disc

Insert the password reset Live disc into the computer that you’re trying to gain access to. Restart the computer and press the appropriate key (also called “BIOS Key”) at the start of the boot-up process – often when the manufacturer’s logo appears on screen – and you’ll be taken to the BIOS Setup screen. Change the boot order in BIOS to set the USB or CD as your first option for boot device and boot the computer from it.

Step 3: Reset Windows Logon Password

Once the locked computer boots from the Live disc, it will load the Windows PE operating system inside the Live disc and open up the Reset Windows Password program. The program automatically finds the Windows installations on your hard drive, and analyzes the SAM (Security Accounts Manager) database and displays all Windows user accounts existing in your system.

Just choose the user account which you want to do a password reset, and click on “Reset Password” button. It will reset your forgotten logon password quickly!

Conclusion

This should be the easiest method to reset Windows logon password in case your password is lost or forgotten. It works for all recent versions of Windows including Windows 8, 7, 2000, XP, Vista as well as Windows Server 2000, 2003, 2008 and 2012.

Forgot Computer Administrator Password

March 23rd, 2013 by Admin

On my computer, I have an administrator account and the guest account. Well my dad took my computer away from me for a while and he changed the password to the administrator account. The problem is, he can’t remember what he changed the password to. I only have access to the guest account now, so I can’t install or uninstall any unwanted programs, the quality is horrible and I don’t have any of my music!

I’ve searched around for password resetting programs, but that doesn’t help since I can’t even install anything on the guest account. Is there any way I can retrieve or reset my password? Thank you so much.

In Windows 8/7/Vista/XP, an administrator account has full control over the computer’s files, systems, and settings. Few things are more frustrating than needing to access the computer, but not being able to remember the administrator password. Thankfully, there is a handy utility designed to help crack forgotten computer administrator passwords.

Password Recovery Bundle works by creating a boot disk that you must boot your locked computer from in order to remove the password. The reason why a boot disk is used is because it allows the password recovery process to occur outside of the locked-out operating system so that the operating system’s various protective measures can be avoid.

To get started, you need to find another computer with internet connection. Download and install Password Recovery Bundle on that computer and the program enables you to use a CD or USB flash drive to create a Windows password cracking bootdisk. Once the bootdisk is created successfully, you can bring it to boot your locked computer from it. The password cracking utility inside the bootdisk will automatically locate all Windows user accounts existing on your computer, and you are allowed to remove the password of any user account instantly! Need to know more detailed instructions? Please refer to this tutorial: How to Reset Forgotten Windows Password with Password Recovery Bundle.

Forgot computer administrator password? No need to worry any more as long as you have a password cracking boot disk in hand. The boot disk created by Password Recovery Bundle enables you to easily unlock forgotten administrator password on any computer.

How to Reset Lost Mac OS X Password without an Install Disk

March 20th, 2013 by Admin

Forgot your Mac admin password? Or maybe you purchased a used Mac from someone else and they’ve got it locked down? There are numerous ways to reset lost or forgotten Mac OS X password. In my previous post we’ve covered how to reset Mac OS X password with a installation CD. If you’ve forgotten your Mac password and you don’t have an install CD laying around, there’s no need to worry! There are still a few options to reset your lost Mac OS X password easily without an install disk.

Option 1: Reset 10.5 Leopard & 10.6 Snow Leopard password

  1. Power on or restart your Mac.
  2. At the chime (or grey screen if your chime is turned off), hold down Command+S on your keyboard to enter single-user mode.
  3. This step is optional, but it’s a good idea because it checks the consistency of the hard disk before moving on. At the prompt, type fsck -fy and press Enter/Return. Wait for the checks to complete before going to the next step.
  4. Type mount -uw / and press Enter.
  5. Type launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist and press Enter.
  6. Type ls /Users and press Enter. This lists all of the usernames on the computer – helpful if you don’t know or remember what these are.
  7. Type dscl . -passwd /Users/username password and replace “username” with one of the users displayed in the previous step. Replace “password” with a new password of your choice. Press Enter.
  8. Type reboot and press Enter.

Option 2: Reset 10.4 Tiger password

  1. Power on or restart your Mac.
  2. At the chime (or grey screen if your chime is turned off), hold down Command+S on your keyboard to enter single-user mode.
  3. Type sh /etc/rc and press Enter/Return.
  4. Type passwd username and replace “username” with the short name of the user account for which you’d like to reset the password.
  5. Type your desired password and press Enter. It won’t show itself on the screen, so be careful what you type. You will most likely have to enter it again to confirm.
  6. Type reboot and press Enter.

Option 3: Create a New User Account

This will create a new account, but all of your documents, pictures and everything will not be accessible.

  1. Power on or restart your Mac (should work for any Mac OS X system).
  2. At the chime (or grey screen if your chime is turned off), hold down Command+S on your keyboard to enter single-user mode.
  3. This step is optional, but it’s a good idea because it checks the consistency of the hard disk before moving on. At the prompt, type fsck -fy and press Enter/Return. Wait for the checks to complete before going to the next step.
  4. Type mount -uw / and press Enter.
  5. Type rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone and press Enter.
  6. Type shutdown -h now and press Enter.

Although the above options will allow you to reset your own Mac password, it also means that others with physical access to your Mac will also be able to use them for accessing your information. To further protect your Mac, you should set an Open Firmware password using Apple’s utility.
