How to Hack Windows Administrator Account Using A Boot Disk?

1. Download the zipped ISO image of PCUnlocker on an alternate PC you can log on to. Unzip the download file and you’ll see a bootable ISO image file: pcunlocker.iso, which need to be burned on to a CD or USB drive using ISO2Disc program.
2. After you’ve created a bootable PCUnlocker CD/USB drive, connect it to your locked computer that you want to hack the administrator account on. When the computer is booting, you will need to press the correct key to get into the Boot Menu. It is usually F12 or Del key. Once in the Boot Menu, select the boot disk that you just created.
3. Now comes the easy part. Just sit back and wait for the computer to load the WinPE operating system which is in your boot disk. After about half a minute, you’ll see the PCUnlocker program which displays a list of local user accounts that are detected on your computer.

   

4. Choose the administrator account and click on Reset Password button. The program will hack into the Windows SAM registry hive and remove the existing password for your administrator account. It will also tweak your account’s settings in case the administrator account is locked out, disabled or expired.
5. Restart the computer and remove the CD/USB drive. Now you can log back into your Windows administrator account with a blank/empty password. You’ve successfully hacked into the administrator account using a boot disk! It’s so easy!

This method is easy enough for newbies to follow – it doesn’t require using the Recovery Console or any complicated commands. And it’s free – I mention that because you can pay $20 for an emergency download of Reset Windows Password utility which can help you reset/blank forgotten administrator password on all versions of Windows.

Let’s get started to learn how to hack Windows XP password for free during a Windows XP Repair. Here’s a step-by-step instructions to hack Windows XP password with a installation disc:

1. Place your Windows XP CD in your CD-ROM and start your computer (it’s assumed here that your XP CD is bootable – as it should be – and that you have your bios set to boot from CD)

2. Keep your eye on the screen messages for booting to your CD Typically, it will be “Press any key to boot from CD”

3. Once you get in, the first screen will indicate that Setup is inspecting your system and loading files.

4. When you get to the Welcome to Setup screen, press ENTER to Setup Windows now

5. The Licensing Agreement comes next – Press F8 to accept it.

6. The next screen is the Setup screen which gives you the option to do a Repair. It should read something like “If one of the following Windows XP installations is damaged, Setup can try to repair it”. Use the up and down arrow keys to select your XP installation (if you only have one, it should already be selected) and press R to begin the Repair process.

7. Let the Repair run. Setup will now check your disks and then start copying files which can take several minutes.

8. Shortly after the Copying Files stage, you will be required to reboot. (this will happen automatically – you will see a progress bar stating “Your computer will reboot in 15 seconds”

9. During the reboot, do not make the mistake of “pressing any key” to boot from the CD again! Setup will resume automatically with the standard billboard screens and you will notice Installing Windows is highlighted.

10. Keep your eye on the lower left hand side of the screen and when you see the Installing Devices progress bar, press SHIFT + F10. This is the security hole! A command console will now open up giving you the potential for wide access to your system.

11. At the prompt, type NUSRMGR.CPL and press Enter. Voila! You have just gained graphical access to your User Accounts in the Control Panel.

12. Now simply pick the account you need to change and remove or change your password as you prefer. If you want to log on without having to enter your new password, you can type control userpasswords2 at the prompt and choose to log on without being asked for password. After you’ve made your changes close the windows, exit the command box and continue on with the Repair.

13. Once the Repair is done, you will be able to log on with your new password (or without a password if you chose not to use one or if you chose not to be asked for a password). Your programs and personalized settings should remain intact.
