Windows XP Logon Trick If Forgot Password

Here is a simple way to access Windows XP with Administrator rights and privileges if you have password protected your User account on your Windows XP system and can't remember the password(s) to login. Whenever Windows XP is installed on a system, it creates a default account called "Administrator" and by default this account is not password protected. Therefore, if you bought a brand name computer (such as Dell, HP, Compaq or Sony)or you have installed Windows XP yourself. You should be able to login to the computer through the unprotected Administrator account.

5. Click through several self-explanatory screens until your reach the
familiar 'Welcome' screen.

because the primary graphics will have been set to the Windows Safe Mode software
VGA adapter. You will not be able to change this mode even in Display options,
while Windows is running in Safe Mode.

7. Find the icon for the Administrator user. If the default settings of your system
haven't been changed, there should be no password for this account.
The Safe Mode Welcome screen might display some of the other users on your
system.

8. Login as the admin.

9. Press Yes at the prompt asking if you would like to continue using Safe Mode.

other passwords for user on the machine. Make any changes you want.

boot-up the computer will startup normally.
