I want to recover the password of the administrator account of Windows XP network without having any memory loss, without having the password reset, and without upgrading or downgrading any acounts. However, I am willing to insert boot floppy disks / CDs or anything it takes. I tried LoginRecovery.com, but it seems like I have to pay like 20+ USD. <_< 50 creds to someone who gives me a working method.
ask the pc store people //// they will do it for free .... well here does for free to check and do something
Ok, Firstly I hope that your Administrator account is not named Administrator. If it is then this will not work. If it isn't then read on. Turn off your computer completely. After you do so turn the power back on and boot it up in safe mode (By holding F8). When you come to the login screen you should see a new account named Administrator. This account has full access. Login and go to your control panel > user accounts and then change the password of your other account. It will not ask for an old password, just require you to type a new one. After that turn off your computer and reboot normally and you should be able to login to that account with your new password. ~bLiNd
Since he does nto know the current password he cannot just change the account's password he has to go to Start > Run then type cmd then in the Command menu type net user "Username" * then type the new password. edit: you need administrator rights to do this so boot in safe mode under the Admin account.
I got you a program that boots off a floppy that will delete the password completely if none off these methods work.. I just tried it myself and it works perfectly.
Guys. I don't want to change the password. I want to find out what it is without changing it. If I wanted to just change the password, I could just go here http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/
Why don't you wanna change it? You obviously can't remember it, therefore you shouldn't be using it...just my opinion....
