I am always pleased to help them with useful solutions for Vista password reset. In fact, there are many solutions can be found on the internet, but some of them are complex for a computer new hand. Now I collect three methods which are easy to use to you, these methods may be the most helpful way to reset Windows Vista password that I have tested.



Solution 1. Prepare a Windows Vista password reset disk and use it to reset lost password.

Windows XP and further versions also provide another method to recover forgotten Password by using “Reset Disk”.If you created a Password Reset Disk in Past, you can use that disk to reset the password.

Solution 2. Use free Vista password recovery tool to recover Vista password.


There are two popular tools: Ophcrack and Offline NT Password & Registry Editor. The former which is based on rainbow tables will spend you much precious time to download but just can reset passwords less than 14 characters. The latter supports Windows NT/2000/XP, but not AD password recovery. Once you forgot Windows 7/vista/xp password, Ophcrack is a good choice to recover lost password. However, many Windows users failed to recover Windows password as its large ISO file which is more than 496MB.

But the problem is you need operate in Dos environment, which is more suitable for PC expert.
