    After watching two other videos with pretty much the identical procedure, I watched yours: your video was so much better than the others. Rather than some annoying music you actually narrated the procedure in a very clear and helpful manner. Thanks. Seems like this is a pretty major security flaw for windows 7...

    thanks! 2 things to add:
    - if sticky keys doesn't work, click on the red button on the bottom right and check box for sticky keys
    - if your user name is 2 words, surround it in double quotes: net user "name1 name2" *

    Worked flawlessly. You couldn't have provided a more simple and novice-friendly tutorial. I appreciate the help and I look forward to following your channel!
    (FYI for those of you reading, once you have renamed the system32 files, you can reset the passwords of additional users by simply clicking shift 5 times again and repeating the cmd prompt steps)

    I love you really, found my broken laptop after 7 years and apparently its working again, I was relieved to fin out.
    Only, I had forgot the password.
    I am not very good with IT, but I have tried resetting the password with a USB with different programs, it took me hours to find out I had to actually buy the software so I got frustrated and almost gave up,
    until I came across your video!
    Thank you so much for sharing your skills!

    Your a lifesaver. I was able to login to my computer after trying your method. I have never changed my password to my local pc and it’s kinda complicated password but I was unable access my computer with my password. Since, I was desperate to access my pc and your method worked like a magic. Unsure if I lost few data during the process but does not matter. We appreciate your video. God bless.

    Precise and direct video for the lost pass for Win7. Only note I would add, on my 2 laptops anyhow, is that after closing the notepad window and hitting "don't send" button, instead of having the option to click "finish" button, it just powered down/shutdown my laptops. I just restarted them, hit the "shift key" 5x to open command prompt and continued your instructions from there. Both laptops now have new passwords. Great job on your video.

  • @topone4655
    @topone4655 8 лет назад +7

    so once you change the files that you have renamed do you need to change it back or can you leave it as it is?
    meaning if you forget your password again all you will need to do is press Shift 5 times and pop up cmd
    or would you need to do the whole process everytime if you forget or lose your password again

    • @Altoelder
      @Altoelder  8 лет назад +4

      Interesting! I'd never had to break in to the same computer twice. You don't have to change the file names back. I believe that if you leave the files, all you would need to do is press shift 5 times and change the password. I don't believe you would need to do the whole process again.

    • @topone4655
      @topone4655 8 лет назад +1

      aha ok thanks that's is what I figured you would not have to redo the whole process but just making sure
      say what if you had another account on the computer that does not have a password you could then access cmd that way and it would work I would think.
      and another thing is I have heard of a way you can set your phone or email to recover the password
      ok 1 more question about about just viewing the password instead of changing it? I believe this is achievable no?

    • @Altoelder
      @Altoelder  8 лет назад +1

      It's also a good idea to make copies of setup and cmd and paste them in a different directory other than system32. The process in the video worked only once. When I tried to change the pword for a different account, every time I typed in "net user user name *" I would get a syntax error message listing the options for the command. I finally had to do the repair option system restore to get things back to normal

      @@ambargonzalez83 same thing happened to me, but I named the files exactly as you showed. I changed setch to setch0. Then I copied cmd, pasted it at bottom of files in system 32, named it sethc. Then I restarted and was so happy until when my machine restarted pressing shift 5 times did nothing.

    Can I ask 2 questions of non technical description.....
    1. The 5 shift button entries - will this entry ensure cmd exe is activated. Under normal circumstances it comes up with Sticky keys option?
    &
    2. Most importantly- if the laptop had or has a reserved drive or encrypted files heretofore is it possible to determine if in eliminating the password successfully the hard drive files and folder access would be prevented? Instructions well presented and very clear Thanks in advance E

    For everyone looking for SethC... When you are in your system32 folder make sure your file of type says ALL FILES at the bottom...then you will see SethC is in the applications...not the folders. Then you should also be able to find CMD as well.
