- Forgot Administrator password in Windows XP Pro
- Posted by Kamal on October 13th, 2005
Hi All,
I have administrator account on my windows XP pro box and also its a
standalone PC. I don't have password reset disk and also tried to delete the
sam file after booting up with the floppy but didn't helped so far. Is there
anyway i can get into my machine without reformatting it?
Thanks in Advance
Kamal

Hi,
You can reset lost password using Active@ Password changer tool. Ti
works really great. Give it a try, you won't regret it.

The Linux based method is free. Not $39.99 US.
