If you yourself are administrator, and you can’t remember the administrator password, the problem get a little tricky, and probably hard to recover the ‘forgotten password’ again. Before you search for recovery CD or Windows DVD to format and reinstall Windows onto the computer, here a few ways you can try to unlock the Windows to gain access to the system again, at least by resetting the password.

Method 1: Take a rest, and try hard to remember the forgotten password

Sometimes, human being is a little weird. You won’t get the thing that you urgently need. So have a coffee, take a snap or even come back after a few days, you may found that you suddenly ‘remember’ your Windows password.

Method 2: Try No Password Administrator Login Backdoor

In Windows XP (not Windows Vista as Administrator account is not enabled by default), there is built-in Administrator user account, that has administrative credentials, enabled by default, and without any password to protect the account from been access. If you didn’t change this Administrator’s password, then try to sign in to Windows XP without password.

Method 3: Reset password from another user account with administrator credentials

If you cannot log on to Windows by using a particular user account, but you can log on to another account that has administrative credentials, follow these steps on how to do the trick:

Log on to Windows by using an administrator account that has a password that you remember. You may need to start WinXP in safe mode.
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type “control userpasswords″, and then click OK.
Click the user account that you forgot the password for, and then click Reset Password.
Type a new password in both the New password and the Confirm new password boxes, and then click OK.

Method 4: Do-It-Yourself (DIY) third party recovery tool

There are a lot of tools and utilities that can be downloaded and used to recover, reset, retrieve or reveal existing password. These password reset or retrieval utilities, free or paid, are usually a Linux boot disk or CD that able to comes with NT file system (NTFS) drivers and software that will read the registry and rewrite the password hashes, or can brute force crack the password for any user account including the Administrators. The advantage is that there is no fear of leaking your password to outsiders, while the process requires physical access to the console and a floppy or CD drive, depending on which tool you choose. And it’s not easy, although it always work!

Method 5: Third party password recovery toolkits

Windows Password Recovery 6.0–Windows Password Recovery 6.0 is an easy-to-use tool designed for resetting local administrator and user passwords on any Windows system. If you have forgotten your password, or are locked out, or you do not have access to the password of the system.

You only need to boot from Windows Password Recovery 6.0 CD/DVD, and reset forgotten password to Blank . Then you can get back into your system with blank password.

Warning: If you change or reset password by using any method above, all EFS encrypted files in Windows Vista or Windows XP will be unreadable and no longer recoverable unless you remember the old password that used to encrypt the files. So if you have any encrypted files, it’s best that you try to crack the password first in order to retrieve and get back the existing password first, before you attempt to reset the password to a new one.

How to Recover Your Forgotten Windows Password?

You have to admit that we often tend to forget our passwords. And how could not we? We have to remember our PC passwords, our email passwords, mobile PINs, credit cards PINs. The list gets longer and longer. And the worst thing is that we always forget them when we urgently need to use one of these things. There is always possibility to write them down, but opposite there is always the possibility to forget where we have written them down.

How can we handle this kind of situations?

Let’s focus on our Windows Account password. There are few possibilities we can try.

First, we can always create Password Recovery disk, but most of us don’t even think about this possibility or we have the propensity to think that we don’t need it since we will “never” forget our password.

Next, we can always call for a technician, but we have to be aware that the costs of this option might not be that low as well as time consuming.

Finally, there are few tools on the net that can help us with our problem. The hard thing however is to figure out which is the best. On the other hand, not all of us are computer “geeks” and are not quite familiar how to operate these tools. Furthermore, we can never be sure that these tools would not mess up our computer even more and delete all the information we desperately tried to access. Do these tools even work on different Windows platforms, like Vista, XP or Windows 7? So which one do we choose?

After long search I was able to find the tool that helps you recover your forgotten Windows password in less than a minute. It is completely safe and supports any Windows Installation. I have used it and I think it is a great help to all those who have a tendency to lose their passwords.

Learn more about this safe way to reset your forgotten Windows password on http://www.passwordresetter.com, before you try any of the options we discussed above.
