Recovering the password? Its possible but its not worth the effort. As long as you dont have your files encrypted through windows you can use hiren's boot CD to remove the password for your account.
You must login or register to view this content.

I've personally used this a few times in the past and can say that it does in fact work.

There is another way if all you want to do is bypass the password. For that session

You could use the CMD method and get the hidden administrator... or just get a CD boot recovery password.

go into bios (restart computer and a message would pop up about your computer manufactor, spam f12 and it will give you options to boot from disks.) Also, you need to change the hidden admin password i think

you must of done something wrong with burning the files to the disc, you used PowerISO? When you check the CD, it should have files and not just one big file.
