Answer 5

I HAVE ALREADY TRIED THIS @estudier

Answer 6

If those programs don't work, your only choice is a professional recovery service.

That's expensive but you may want to do it if your data is valuable enough.

Answer 7

@estudier I know thats the last thing i can do but i hope there are more options :(

Answer 8

Nope

Answer 9

I got a bootable drive i hope that works :(

Answer 10

Answer 11

What happens when you start your machine?

Answer 12

The welcome page where you have to type your password appears @estudier

Answer 13

So there is only 1 user, you, and your user password is the same as your administrator password, is that right?

Answer 14

I dont have any other accounts :(

Answer 15

What I mean is the pasword you have for signing into Windows the same one that you gave when you set up windows in the first place (the administrator password)

Answer 16

@estudier Yes but i changed it after that

Answer 17

So you have forgotten both of them?

Answer 18

take ur harddisk out and put it in another 2 harddisk system, then u can access ur data.

Answer 19

its same as bootable drive thing, you wil be able to access ur hard disk data, but not sure how to retrieve ur password back

Answer 20

unless u forget ur harddisk password also :)

Answer 21

Answer 22

Answer 23

Answer 24

@estudier Its just that i changed my password last night and now its not working :(

Answer 25

I know my password but i dont know why isnt my new password working :(

Answer 26

What I want to know is whether or not you know the administrator password (the one you used to set up Windows at the very beginning)

Answer 27

I dont remember :(

Answer 28

And you did try this program?

http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/download.php

Answer 29

Yeah i did try oph crack

Answer 30

It should work, maybe you have to run it several times...

Answer 31

OK, you can still access your data (I thought before that you could not get the machine to work at all).

You need a utility to access the data in DOS and then you can copy it to another drive.

Answer 32

Actually there are no free software's when you run them they either work partially or dont work :(

Answer 33

This software has worked for many people before, it is the best.

Answer 34

So you get a usb drive loaded with DOS commander etc and copy your files to it or to another drive

Answer 35

Well my laptop holds a lot of data :(

Answer 36

Like I said, you will have to copy it, it will take a long time if there are a lot of files, but iot will be done eventually.

Answer 37

My games cover 320 GB space and there is alot more data :(

Answer 38

Like I said, it will take a long time.....

Answer 39

A very Long Time, Btw if i crack into the system will it have any system loses :(

Answer 40

I don't understand?

Answer 41

the best thing for you to do is to boot your os in starting screen

Answer 42

Ok thanks alot everyone ill be back after i try this

Answer 43

@hba use this program http://www.pcloginnow.com/

Answer 44

@hba there are a few programs online, I have actually tried one already and it worked, really simple to use, would you like the name of it. but you must have little knowledge of programming, very little that is

Answer 45

@heedcom I have tried every single program none of them is free when it comes to change password so they ask for purchasing if i want to change password to access my account

Answer 46

I am currently checking out the program which clcaps gave me i hope it works

Answer 47

Well the app that colcaps gave me isnt working :(

Answer 48

Ophcrack

Answer 49

Does not ask you for money

Answer 50

I have it and it is not working :(

Answer 51

Just checking, have you actually tried going into your prelogin screen (the one where you can select various options including to go back to an earlier version of Windows)

Answer 52

Well with another software and when it said you have to buy the software i was like wtf

Answer 53

I am not talking about using another software, I am talking about when you boot up, there is a key you can press that takes you to a screen with various options.

Answer 54

yeah we have to press the F9 Key to go to the Boot Option

Answer 55

I don't know if it will work or not, there is option to restore back to previous settings that worked (somethinglike that), you could try that.

Also do you have win restore active?

Answer 56

Do u have Windows Installation DVD (it is bootable)?
