Administrator Password

Hello Friends

I am using Windows 2000 Professional.

I forgot the administrator password.

Whether any free software available or any idea please reply

Thank You

you are in luck:

Get you self a cd-bootable linux disk. (I believe 2k still uses FAT32 which means any linux cd-bootable will have read and write drivers.)

Boot up in Linux, and navigate to Windows directory

Find the screen saver (.scr) file that you use for your logon. By default it's logon.scr (Let's just use it as the example)

Also find cmd.exe

rename logon.scr to logon.bak

copy cmd.exe to make a copy, and rename the copy to logon.scr

Start back up in windows. Wait till the screen saver comes on...
I mean the cmd will show up

Here you can type:

net user *username* *new password*

*username* replace it with the administrator's user name
*new password* type a password you want to use

After that's done. exit
login

Change your password in windows.
