    Kambiz salvation,

    If you forgot Windows login password, then you can login as administrator to assign a new password to your account, or you must have previously created a password reset disk of the computer.

    I suggest you to see the following link for more information:

  • I forgot the administrator password on my netbook windows 7 son´s

    I forgot the administrator password on my netbook windows 7 son´s. I can connect as long as him, but parental control is set so that it can not download anything without my password. I tried using Ophcrack, but it does not support windows 7. Does anyone have a suggestion?

    Thank you
    Emma

    Here are the usual methods to solve this problem:

    • Restart the computer with your CD to repair Windows, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if the problem occurred recently).
    • Logging in as a different admin account and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if create you an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you have activated the account administrator and know its password).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have created such a keyfile).
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    Note also that you can lead to permanent damage to your registry files when you use crackers from third past.

    If you do not have a CD player, then you must burn a repair flash bootable disc. Here's how to make one:

    Hi Marina,.

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft forums.

    From the description of the issue, I understand that you forgot your account password. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

    If you have forgotten your Windows password and you are on a domain, you must contact your system administrator to reset your password. If you are not on a domain, you can reset your password by using a reset disk of password or by using an administrator account.
