Windows PASSWORD Recovery [for All Windows Version]

[KRATO$]

Hello Dj
Somehow if You Forgot your WINDOWS Password , The First Thing a user come up in his mind about FORMATTING which may cause the lose of DATA.
Few Methods like Hiren's Boot CD , Many Alternative Recovery like Ophcrack Live CD for different Versions of WINDOWS consumes alot of time and doesn't get always successfull.
Here m gonna provide a simple and HANDY Solution for this.

Requirements : Any LINUX LIVE CD only , for simplicity i Suggest PUPPY LINUX. [LIGHTEST LINUX of about 200-230Mb Only]

Steps :
- Insert Live CD and BOOT from it. You may Make it Bootable either by USB Flash by using this.
[ You may need to turn OFF Security BOOT Features for UEFI Bios ]
- Locate the drive where WINDOWS is installed.
[ Goto Windows/System 32 Folder ]
- Search for a File named "cmd.exe" and just rename it.
[ Let it be "cmd0.exe" ]
- Search another File with name "sethc.exe" and rename it to "cmd.exe".
- Finally rename "cmd0.exe" to "sethc.exe".
- SHUTDOWN and reboot your System.
- Press Shift Key 5 - 6 Times a the login screen.
[ This'll open the Command Prompt ]
- Type "net user" without Quotes and hit ENTER.
[ This'll shows you the list of Active Users Accounts ]
- Type " net user<space><Your User Account Name><Space>* ".
[ This'll display you to enter New Password ]
- Enter any New Password and Confirm or leave it blank to remove password.

DONE !!
Please Don't Abuse it.

Note : Don't forget to change back sethc.exe to cmd.exe afterwards and vice-versa

There is another option by downloading the passwprd reset disk and booting from it. Its a mini linux distro and very easy process.
