How to Reset Windows XP Administrator Password After Forgotten

If you have forgotten your Windows XP administrator password, there are a few ways that you can reset it. One way is to use a program called Kon-Boot. Kon-Boot is a program that allows you to bypass the Windows XP password authentication process. This means that you can log into your account without having to enter your password.

Another way to reset your forgotten Windows XP administrator password is to use a bootable CD or USB drive. You will need to create a bootable CD or USB drive that contains a copy of the Windows XP setup files. Once you have created the bootable media, you will need to boot from it. When the Windows XP setup screen appears, you will need to press the F6 key to install the additional drivers. After the drivers have been installed, you will need to press the Enter key to continue. On the next screen, you will need to select the Repair option.

Once the repair process has begun, you will need to choose the Command Prompt option. At the command prompt, you will need to type the following commands:

cd \windows\system32

ren sethc.exe sethc.bak

copy cmd.exe sethc.exe

Exit the command prompt and reboot your computer. When your computer reboots, you will need to press the Shift key five times. This will bring up the Command Prompt. At the command prompt, you will need to type the following command:

net user [username] [password] /add

Replace [username] with the username of the account that you want to create and replace [password] with the password that you want to use. Once you have typed the command, press the Enter key. You will then be prompted to reboot your computer.

Once your computer reboots, you will be able to log into your account using the new password that you just created.
