Title: ?Forgotten windows xp password
Post by: Markie on 04 August 2007, 20:48:41

Any way around this ?

Junior has forgotten his xp password on his pc, we suspect he has changed it and perhaps mis spelled it...

tried all previous ones, upper case and lower case....

any way to resolve this ?

Can you log onto it with admin rights? Just not with juniors account?

Coz that easy peasy......control panel....user accounts  :y

If not then its boot it up in dos mode.....cd to a directory and delete a file.....this resets all the passwords
