NT uses one-way encryption. That means:

You enter a new password, NT encrypts it and stores the result in
the password file.

Next, when you want to log on:

You enter your password, NT encrypts it and compares the
result to what is stored in the password file.

Plus, if you were a tech, you should have the admin password.
You can then impersonate a user.
