Re: Reset Windows XP password
Funny,
Most people FORGET to make a password for the default "ADMINISTRATOR" account.
If you happen to be one of those, it can be as simple as going into safe mode ("F8") at boot, click on the "ADMINISTRATOR account id, and enter "NUSRMGR.CPL" from the command line there as well.
Since it never shows up in your user list normally it's easy to forget to add a password, so that's also a little less stressful to use to recover, but then I would also give that account a password as well, if you left it BLANK all this time.
