Oh my god this was so simple, why are all the other guides so complicated? Thank you so much
I'm using this for more than 10 years.. great piece of tool

Great video! Thanks for guiding me through the password reset.
Brilliant guide, nice and clear and takes you through every step. More importantly its the only guide that actually worked after hours of searching! Thanks a lot.
Thanks Chris! Downloaded this video. EXCELLENT info!
Thank you very much, this worked.
rufus couldn't create a bootable USB drive that would work on a gigabyte motherboard, tried changing Bios to only boot to usb and all the different USB ports, the USB drive was there to select but it wouldnt boot to it.
Thanks
thanks chris youre a life saver as always
Worked like a charm, thanks
Can't get it to work. no options will work and it just scrolls and stops at Kernal Panic Not sync
Hoping this still works Chris, thank you so much for posting!
THIS WORKS YOUVE TRIED IT ?
I really love this video teacher from now on will be following you alot
Thanks a lot
Why is it that you can't use this on a VM?
Yep..have used this for years, mainly when CD boot was popular, but now on USB is nice.
big thanks for you sir, this is really helpful
The Windows reset password screen does not appear for me 4:49 point.

hangs for me at booting the kernel...
What a time saver! You sir have provided such an awesome service and I can't commend you enough! Now my mom can use her laptop again! Cheers to you!
OMG works in win 10 x64 thanks you very much !!
Worked great. Had a locked out 'boot' drive and all the other tricks failed. This came right up and allowed me to reset the computer admin!
I was like "bet this is pogostick" click show more "pogostick, yep"
Thank you, help me a lot. You help to fix my computer, I could go through to my laptop even without the password.

Very helpful. liked and subscribed
@Chris , thank you so much, this was amazing, very useful!!!

This was very helpfull and compared to other solitions you find on youtube very easy! Thanx a lot! :-)
Man... Love your videos, you’re awesome ✌🏻
Thanks! I just got this to work on an old Dell Optiplex (Vista) machine. It was a little different, and I had to go back a few times, but finally figured it out. It is easier than most other procedures I found, which most wouldn't work on Vista.
Thanks this was very helpful
Thanks a lot it really worked for me.
Thank's You Are Very Thearal You Are Right It's long And Intemedating,Like U Say It's A Good Process,Though.
Thanks a million bro. You are the best! It did work. Now I just need to know if I can redo the account I forget the password for.
Yep, worked great mate!
It worked great thanks!!
Thank you very much for this info.
Just saved my tokens.
Didn't see how he created his new password. I know he wiped the password, but he typed a password when it logged back in. Didn't see him create it.
well ,it did not work for me, i did all step by step as u say to the download on the USB, then i did rudus as well all till i connect to the computer the is lock, still not goind to the CMD , and if i go to the repair part on any icon is ask me is is that the administrator the i want to work on it, and ask for password, so as well use another usb to see if i can go to that part the will run the usb first, but is ok , only run an other start up, (macrum) is a software to clone the i use on the past, but that work, open cmd but cant the one u show here, pls help
Great tool. I've been using a custom linux distro where I can just do it in a few clicks with a GUI. Sometimes the SAM file isn't in the right location and cmd line doesn't work right. I think it should be worth mentioning that if the drive is encrypted, you will fubar the entire thing by doing a SAM file related PW reset. You also cannot unlock accounts that use a Microsoft Account login with any tool that I've used/found.
Thank you for your amazing video
It's funny you made this video today. I was tasked to install something on a work machine with lost admin password. I just booted Kali and used chntpw only to discover the only admin was the Administrator account.
We discovered that a previous staff was using Administrator as normal user with her personal Gmail logged in and League of Legends installation files in her download folder.
I removed quite a lot of things before proceeding
Work on imac
the program seems to hang at booting the kernal after hitting enter
I've used this before and can tell you that it works however I'm currently having this same issue with a clients PC. Was this ever resolved?
Thank you brother
It worked
i did everything canot get it to boot from usb even though i selected boot from usb
I am using this tool ever since as well. Always saved the user from depression :)
Thank You , needed this so much . I just had to put hard drive in another computer , could no access bios , to boot to usb . I was like 3 days later and like , why didn't I just slap the hard drive in other computer .
bro, haven't seen this reset in a few years, I used on Hiran Utility CD, man great stuff, I was wondering what I did with that CD lol, thanks again.
Trying to reset a HP pavilion x360. It will not boot off the Flash drive I made following the instructions. Boot menu won't recognize it, and when i set it to boot in bios, It just will not boot. any thoughts would be appreciated.
Really work's.... Tq so much
This is the best bacon saver ever!
freezes on
Booting the kernel.
what's wrong?
I posted an alternative that involves copying over the files to another computer, resetting then copy them back
I keep getting laptop is in hibernation mode so it would not work even after forcing a shutdown.
Thanks .♥️
Thank you for the idea on how to reset the password. my case was Win 10 on Virtual Box, I had to use Hiren's Boot Cd and go to the settings of Virtual Box to add a new hard as IDE then map it with the image of Hiren's boot cd.
Thanks Chris, this was really handy to know as I've just "upgraded" my fairly old (2006 vintage) machine from Win7 to Win10. It became apparent that at some point I'd set a password for my default user account, and that I'd totally forgotten that I'd done that, and of course what the password was (I tried everything I could think of, but nothing worked).
Anyway, I followed your instructions and apart from a problem I had with the USB thumb drive I was using (it was one of those which converts an SD card to USB in an adapter), and used a "proper" one, it worked exactly as it should.
A possible side-effect was that the next time I ran MS Outlook, it seemed to have "forgotten" all the email passwords for my email accounts, and I've had to put them back into the config.
Assuming this is NOT a coincidence, I presume Outlook is using the same file for its email account password that the Windows account manager is using?
Thanks for your hard work, Chris, and I hope 2020 is a good year for you and yours.
my usb wont boot this is anyone having this issue?
Same here !
Excellent Video, I used it for a computer at work that disconnected from the domain, i enabled the Administrator account reconnected it to the domain and logged in and then turned the Admin Off, Thans Chirs!!
Bro when i in de admin account what is the next step to reset my personal account? I'm not seeing that step in your video
Net user [your account name] new password then hit enter
How do u turn off the narrator on a winbook tw700 intel inside
Totally just saved me! THANKS
I spoke too soon. Was able to open and get in as admin. Looks like the previous user loaded win 10 pro without activation. So one in it won't let me make user changes. Using your script, I noticed password not required has an X. Admin does not. The user pw is on "blank" but it ask for a pin or pw.
Trying to help a recent widow get in so she can take care of business.
it stucks in the booting the kernel
seems to get hung up - last line says "Kernel panic - no syncing: attempted to kil init exit code=0x0000000000b"
I downloaded both to a jump drive plugged jump drive into laptop i'm locked out of but nothing new happens.. Can anyone help me ?
How do we open that black screen at 4:50 ??
50k subs! Amazing!
Dvizz zzivD Hows that relevant to anything ? Lol... Btw, what distro do you use? (Assuming you use Linux)
Dvizz zzivD True, and thank you for your answer. I’m currently using Arch + Manjaro, and its awesome! Im never going back to Windows (unless it’s some type of a need)
Civil RUclips Replies... Now I know this is a dream...
Rufus does work well If you are trying to get through to "Windows Password" However if you are locked out at the HDD (hard drive) password that is set by the computer manufacturer, then you must call them to get the master password that is set on the "hard drive" when it was bought.
almost auto fill in the option you need very easy for looks like nasty command line program
Thank soooooooo much. You really saved me a lot. I joined my PC to a network and after some months, I had to change the account user name and password from the domain AD for my own reasons. After doing this successfully, I got this error "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed " when I tried signing in using the new username and password so the only option was to unjoin it from the network and join it again BUT I had to first login with the local Administrator account which I did not Know and this stressed me a lot but you saved me. Thank You so much. God Bless you for sharing this.
it works.......THANK you very much
Hit enter in first boot and get kernel panic init not found
Smart Dude
Once again didn't work. PC wont boot from the USB. Same with lazysoft.
I am stuck on booting the karlen
Not working... there's an message "Kill init"?
After plugging in the usb to the locked computer, all you have to do is reset it? I tried that and nothing happened. I wen the boot menu and secure boot is on idk if that has something to do with it.
it is not workable on uefi bios sir.
Whaaaaaattttt??? Wow very confusing, are we supposed to do them to a usb then take to the cup we can't get into??? Can't get in safe mode or any other mode because everything leads to sign in needing the PW we DONT have
Nice, no muss - no fuss. Also complies with my daytime employer/s, "no use of third party software" rule. One more usb drive to put in my quick fix stash. I'll have a rash of lockouts in the last week of August/first week of September and again from a week before Christmas until New Years Day. This will save me a lot of time.
Stuck at booting the kernel help!
Can't read the pages, they'r all blurred
Windows is hibernated, refused to mount. The system was properly shut down.Failed to mount sda4.
I cant access windows/system32/config
It's hard for me to do with the narrator is on
This is why you should have a bios password to stop people booting from usb. Also this won't work if the drive has bitlocker enabled. Microsoft know the passwords can be easily reset which is why they advice you use bios passwords and encryption.
just pull the battery, reset bios
@@haydenborst6272 The battery is not for BIOS its for CMOS. But you will have a problem if your System/Mainboard uses NVRAM to store BIOS configuration parameters because there is no separate battery...its in the NVRAM module an you can not pull it out.
@@haydenborst6272 The bitlocker encrption is less easy to get around. This is why you do both.
My son changed the password and then left for another state and doesnt remember the password.
I've been using hirens boot CDs tool to do this with minixp interface for years till I realise that there was an updated version with win10 interface
Kyhi’s rescue disk is awesome as well
Mine stops at 'booting the kernel' Any suggestions?
Me too... How'd you fix it?
link is down, any mirror link to download the tool
please provide the solution
looks exactly like "Trinity", I've used for over a decade... worked on a Win10 box recently. it's old AF, meaning Winders never bothered to fix anything.
can i download it with a MacBook pro then use it on windows 10
Hi. I try to boot from USB but it doesn't detect in in boot menu but if I put something else bootable on the USB it will detect it, just not the bootable reset program. Any idea's? Cheers.
Yeah, same here, tried a different partition style too
I created the thumbdrive but when I reboot, my PC just goes right back to the signon screen?? Help??
same did u found any solution?
So, I got a computer today and had this very issue. Problem is, when I try to boot this thumb drive, I get a Kernel Panic message. So, it probably doesn't work on everything. Back to the search for a Windows 10 password hacker...
