Since you forgot the password the only way will be to gain access and change the password in the process. You will need to have your XP Disk to perform this procedure. It does work. Several of my friends have had to use it to get into the computers their children changed the password on.

It depends on what verison of windows. If you are using 98 then just click cancel. If you are using XP, does anyone else have access to your machine? If not try logging on as an admin as most people do not lock this account out. When the welcome screen pops up press ctrl+alt+delete and a Login window should open. Username Administrator and no password. If that does not work try doing a Yahoo search because there are many way around it...but mostly illegal (we can only take your word that you own the computer...you probably do but better safe than post illegal things on Yahoo Answers)

there is a way to find out. If you put a hint for your password then go to the question mark you see. And a bubble should pop up and give you a hint of the password. Or you could reinstall everything back into your computer.

restart you computer and boot into safe mode by hitting the F5 key several time til your computer squaks at you. Once there find the administration program in the start menu. I'm sorry I can't remember the name. It should be in the start menu, bu tonce you find it go to users select you user name and you should be able to remover or reset your pasword. I am assuming that you have windows xp.
If you are using 98 or 95 just clic cancel and you will get right in secure huh. Good luck

I believe when you enter the password, there is a hint for the password. This only works if you gave yourself a hint when you created the password. Good luck with that.

Log on to another user name if you have one. Then go into user accounts and change it.
