Sometimes it happens that you forget the password to log in, log in or log in to Windows or the file in which the password is stored is corrupt and therefore Windows cannot authenticate the user.
On Windows, the login password is important to avoid unauthorized access.
Staying out of the concepts of networking and the possibility of intrusion from the outside, entering a computer can be very easy if you can physically access it, for example if you have forgotten your Windows password.
First of all, it must be emphasized that most people have no idea who a user called Administrator is also because it is not even shown in the default Windows Logon.
The Administrator user, on the other hand, exists and, as the name implies, has all the possible privileges in using a Windows system; entering a computer as an administrator can therefore be very simple if the owner of the computer has not put any password for the Administrator user .
So, if you want to physically use another person's PC or if you have forgotten your password, you can press, in the login access screen that lists the users, CTRL-ALT-DEL twice, then enter in the username space "administrator" and in the password field, nothing.
In other cases, I report 4 methods to reset or find the Windows password:
1) The first is described in the guide to access any Windows 10, 7 and 8 PC with administrator login and password, without using external programs.
If you want to reset an existing password that has been forgotten, for example, there are some programs to reset the Windows password and reset the local administrator or any other user's access. it is also possible to check all the permissions for each user and change the related security settings.
Offline registry tools and password resetter has a size of about 3 Mb (would you have thought that an entire operating system could be in that space?;)) And is little more than a bash script that asks a series of questions to fulfill the task of recover or reset a windows password including that of administrator . The system also contains a windows registry editor and, necessarily, four virtual consoles bootable via ALT + F1 - F4.
Without making changes, without changing passwords or resetting it, you can access the Windows or Linux computer without a password with Kon Boot a program that also works on Linux, not discovering the password but directly, with login without any password, both for normal users and for administrators, without making differences and discrimination.
with this program you can, if you want, enter without permission the computers of others or be of support in case you forget the password to access Windows.
OphCrack, on the other hand, is a much more massive distribution, around 450 Mb.
I prefer to use Live-CD versions that allow you to completely isolate the operating system in which to recover the password. Account password recovery time is variable and can go up to 30 minutes in difficult cases. In this guide some operating modes are illustrated.
The operating modes for use are quite simple: after downloading these Live distributions, you need to burn them on a CD and restart the PC instructing the bios to start first from the CD and then from the rest of the available devices. To burn a Live CD, read the article on the best programs to copy a CD / DVD.
