Hi,

Does anyone know of a way to recover the login password for Windows 7 without using a reset disk? Our nextdoor neighbour can't access a laptop belonging to her deceased husband. He wrote all his passwords down except for this one it seems.

I have tried:
  • Booting into Safe mode (didn't work also password protected)
  • Using software from the internet to recover the password (didn't work)


I am wondering whether I can use my Windows 7 disks to boot in to Windows then either create a password reset disk or enter safe mode and reset the password that way. Would either way work? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,


Nightwalker
