This
tweak gives a user the opportunity to use it for good or bad. It
enables the user to re-password any account without having to know the
existing password and also shows you every account that exists on the
machine (even the ones that are hidden). This is a good tool to use if
you forgot a password to say your administrator account and you needed
to be logged into the admin account for any reason. To view all of the user accounts: 1) While logged onto the computer, click on Start>Run>and type in CMD. 2)
From the command prompt window, type in net users. This will show you
every account that is made onto the computer whether it is hidden or
not. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To change an account password: 1) While logged onto the computer to an account that has administrative rights, click on Start>Run>and type in CMD. 2)
Type in net user then the name of the account then * and press enter.
heres an example: net user administrator * or net user "Joe Smith" * .
Put the name in quotes if it contains spaces. 3) From
there it should ask for a new password. Type in your new password (type
very carefully - the command window won`t display what you type) and
once more to confirm it. If you get the message that the command
succeeded successfully you`re all set!! Tags: Application Performance Enhancement SetBkMode re-password
