Create a Windows 7 Password Reset Disk
If you forget your Windows password, you can use this password reset disk to create a new password. It is recommend that you create a password reset disk when you create your password, so you don't lose access to your files and information.
Note
A password reset disk can only be created for local user accounts. If your computer is on a domain, a system administrator can reset your domain password.

You must have either a USB flash drive or a Floppy drive; it will not be created on a CD or DVD.


Information
The disk can only be created from within Windows.

The disk is will only work in the OS that it was created in.


Warning
Care must be taken where the disk is stored; anyone that can gain access to the disk can reset the password.


1) To get started, in the start menu start search box type, "password reset disk" (without the quotes) select the link that apears, there will be no UAC prompt.
2) Insert the desired media you intend to use, then select it in the wizard then click next, then next again when it completes.
3) Then click Finish to close the wizard.
To use the Reset Disk
4) At the Windows logon screen, you'll get the "Reset Password" option when you enter an incorrect password, or if you just want to change the password, do as I did and type 1 in the password box and hit enter, then select "Reset Password".
5) In the wizard that opens click next, you'll then be prompted to create a new password then a conformation, then click next.
6) Then when it's done click finish to close the wizard.
You have now reset the password.
Enjoy! :)
