Most of us have experienced a situation
where in we need to gain access to a computer which is password
protected or at times we may forget the administrator password without
which it becomes impossible to login to the computer. So, if you are
somewhat in a same kind of situation, here is an excellent hack using
which you can reset the password or make the password empty (remove the
password) so that you can gain administrator access to the computer.
You can do this with a small tool called Offline NT Password
& Registry Editor. This utility works offline, that means you need to shut down your
computer and boot off your using a floppy disk, CD or USB device (such
as pen drive)
How it Works?
Most Windows operating systems stores the login passwords and other encrypted passwords in a file called sam (Security Accounts Manager). This file can be usually found in \windows\system32\config.
This file is a part of Windows registry and remains inaccessible as
long as the OS is active. Hence, it is necessary that you boot off your
computer and access this sam file via the boot menu.
This tool intelligently gains access to this file and will reset/remove
the password associated with administrator or any other account.
The download link for both CD and floppy drives along with the complete instructions is given below:
