Most of the people use a secret password to secure their
computer. Techews is back with it’s tricks, the first one of the year, but this
time a bit “Wicked”. This article will help you geeks to Hack a password locked
Windows 7 system using CMD. If you don’t know what is a CMD or what is the
purpose of it, check this link for info: CMD-Command Prompt
This method will allow you to remove the existing password
(which you have forgotten/don’t know) and reset the password to your like. It’s
Simple but effective. Just follow the given steps properly.
Steps to be
followed:
1) Make the system have a hard shutdown. This can be done by
pressing the On/Off button on your computer while the “Starting Windows” screen
is active. Do this as many times until you get the ‘Windows Error Recovery’
screen as shown below.
2) In it select the “Launch Startup Repair (recommended)”
and a startup recovery option will appear on the screen.
3) Cancel the “Do you want to use System Restore?” prompt.
4) Wait until Windows has finished repairing your computer.
This repairing process will not harm any files present in the system.
5) After waiting, a window will appear saying “Startup
repair could not repair your computer.” You will also see an arrow pointing
downwards in the bottom left corner (Problem Details). Click on it.
6) Scroll down and click the 2nd link. (Highlighted in the
figure below)
7) After completing step 6, a Notepad will open up. Follow
the given route shown in bold: File => Open => Computer => Local Disk
=> Windows => System32
8) Switch from Text Documents (*.txt) to All Files.
9) Now, in this folder, System32, find an application named
sethc and rename it as sethc-bak (creating a backup file). Sethc is an
application for the Sticky keys program and renaming it won’t do any harm to
your computer.
Also, find the application named cmd and create a copy of it
in the same folder(system32). Rename the copy file as sethc.
10) Close all opened windows and select ‘Finish’ and Restart
your system.
11) When the Password screen appears, hit Shift 5 times.
Command Prompt(Cmd) with admin privileges is opened by doing so.
12) Enter this code into cmd: net user[username]* to change
the [username]’s password. You will not be able to see the new entered
password, so enter it wisely and carefully.
13) After you have successfully changed the password, you
can close the cmd screen.
14) Enter the new password you’ve set in the password screen
of Windows 7, that’s all, you will now successfully enter the system.
