Can you do that on a limited account,to change an admin pass?

knight_47 · 07-Oct-2006, 07:10 PM #3

I don't think it can be done with a guest account, but I haven't tried. I'm pretty sure you can't though.

Empire2500 · 07-Oct-2006, 07:31 PM #4

Not a guest,a limited.

If you have access to CMD, I would think it could be possible.

changing the admin password using this method under a guest or limited account will not work. you will receive an access denied error message.

Is there a way then?Cuz a friend of mine is stuck with limited and his XP CD is lost..

knight_47 · 08-Oct-2006, 05:15 AM #8

Has he tried booting into safe mode? And accessing admin from there?

Hey Empire

The tried and true methods are still the best.
Try Offline NT Password and Registry Editor.

I've bought several used computers in the past with out login passwords. This little jewel lets you change the administration password to 'blank' so you can then boot in as administrator and do what ever you need.

This is not "hacking" an XP password, it is merely "changing" a password on an XP box. You still don't know what the old password is.

The same can be accomplished by right-clicking My Computer, going to Manage, then expanding out the Local Users option, highlighting the Users folder, then right-clicking on a user and choosing "Set Password".

Stoner · 12-Oct-2006, 06:42 AM **#13**

Don't you have to be 'administrator' to do that?

SouthParkXP101 · 12-Oct-2006, 07:39 AM **#14**
