Run it to create a boot floppy then follow the instructions. If you choose to do this then you are doing this at your own risk. Just change the admin pw and login then change the account pw’s that you desire.
Make sure you have a floppy disk in the floppy drive and let the program create the boot floppy. Now restart the machine a let it boot from the floppy. Now follow what it instructs you to do.
Use it like a bootdisk.

NTAccess can replace the administrator password of a Windows XP, Windows NT or Windows 2000 system by rebooting the computer with a special set of boot disks or CD-ROM (XP only). This is useful if you forgot the administrator password and cannot access the Windows XP/2000/NT system.

Windows XP / 2000 / NT Key is a program to reset Windows XP / 2000 / NT security if Administrator password, secure boot password or key disk is lost.

Or you could, if you have a FAT32 file system, just boot to a Win98 bootdisk and rename the SAM file (registry Hive) in the C:\WINNT\system32\config folder to something else. Of course this will remove all accounts on the system and you will need to rebuild them. If you are using NTFS then boot to the Win2000 CD and do this from the Recovery console.

Sir;
I used your excellent SW (Offline NT Password & Registry Editor, Bootdisk / CD) to reset the Admin account on my home PC. It worked very well indeed; after booting from the CD, I was in, did the edits and back in business in about 10 minutes. The only slight problem I had was determining how to access the quit option, I didn’t realize at first that the ! was the input required.

Long time ago , I was confronted with the password problem. Finally , my friend Jane introduced the Windows password Reset.It helped me access windows. It’s great!
http://www.resetwindowspassword.com
Just wanted to say thank you! I had to unlock my account and it worked great! Just finding my way out was a little tricky using ! instead of q or Q. Anyway, I am grateful for you posting the tool.
Queers are fucked up in the head. People that are gay are just mentally ill and depressed by their ugliness that they where born with. People who are gay should be shot in the head. Every gay I have seen acts really fucked up like they’re high all the time, depressing and disguisting. Penis and vagina sex is the best. Thank god man+man or woman+woman can’t make a baby having intercoure. One day a evil bastard scientist will make a killer virus that travel by having sex with someone with the same chromosome
I am happy I found your website on google. Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my husband were just preparing to do some research about this. I am very happy to see such great info being shared freely out there.
