Team,

Is there an accessible tool to reset or break or change a windows 7 or windows 10 password that has been lost for a specific user?

Thanks, now that makes sense.

If you're doing this in the enterprise bear in mind you might be dealing with a drive that's been bitlockered which is going to complicate things. I know I bang on about hardware a lot, but one of the many reasons I do is because stuff like this becomes incredibly easy if you know how to use a screw driver. I think the last time I booted into any kind of environment to remove a password was about 11 years ago; I just pull the drive, connect it to another box and access the data like that. No fiddling with Linux, no worrying about sound drivers, no hacks to enable writing on NTFS etc etc. On 11/24/17, Anatoliy Shudrya <anatoliyshudrya@hotmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

TRK (Trinity Rescue Kit) works very well, but it's not accessible. I've had to get sighted assistance to go over menus/wizard when using it. It works with Win 7 100% and as I recall I think I might have used on windows 10 machine as well. I don't know how it performs with encrypted files or HDDs.

The last time I open up a computer was eleven years ago. Regardless, you still have to dig in to the system file. Why take the extra step? Of course; If you are doing this in the enterprise, there are tools your organization can purchase.

If you slave the drive you don't have to deal with system files at all, unless you count the users documents, pictures, favourites etc as system files. Granted some organizations will have out of band ways of recovering data but how many of those are accessible? On 11/24/17, Ratha Moeuy <rm5587@gmail.com> wrote:
