Changing XP password without old password

[Batistabomb]

Here is a technique to change XP password of your friend's login pc without knowing any hint or old passwords:

just open CMD PROMPT and type as shown below

C:/ net user username newpassword <----|

for example...

I F UR FRIEND USER NAME IS " Cena" ....u want to change itz password to "Batista"

TYPE AS SHOWN BELOW

C:/ net user Cena Batista <====

tats alll u have successfully changed ur friendz password to "Batista"

If you are the admin of pc then go to CMD prompt and type
"""""control userpasswords2""""""
here you can change the password

I respect you my senior member navjotsingh,but at the appearance of QNA it was written like this "This is the place to share what you know, and learn what you don’t. If you have questions that do not qualify as either Hardware or Software questions, post them here..."

So i thought posting of tips n tricks may valid here,i also took suggestion from one of our super senior member who has 3000 above posts to post tips here,also in our forum, members viewing QNA are more compared to other sections

you can reset the password by doing this too

run --> control userpasswords2 and reset password.

i think you guys should report the thread when you want it moved. Just writing in the thread itself does not means that the mods will get the news from you..
