I cannot begin to put into words the love and gratitude that I have for you for posting this video. I've spent DAYS working on this and finally gave up, googling it out of pure frustration. I had no hope when I started the video. I'm now in a desktop I haven't used in years, accessing records I need desperately. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
THANKS!!!!! This was a lifesaver for me, as I had 20,000 cd's on itunes 10!! The only reason I had the old XP was because of that. My brother, who has passed away, had made them and sent me them over a period of time.MEMORIES!!!!! I had not had the old XP set up for several years, and had totally forgotten the password... THANKS!!!
This has got to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on UA-cam. I hit play and walked over to my XP laptop, followed the audio only, and 3 minutes later, BAM! Thank you!
OMG, your video is a lifesaver! I followed your directions, step by step and got into my old laptop, despite having forgotten my password. I desperately wanted to access some old files, photos, and emails. I thought I was out of luck until I found your video. THANK YOU!

Recently moved house. Found old computer but couldn’t remember the password. Can’t believe how easy you made this for me as a 72 year old lady. Many thanks.
What do you do if the administrator needs a password? I clicked on the administrator on the log in screen. It asks for a password instead of opening up a tab asking to continue in safe mode.
I actually can not believe this worked!!! I had all my wedding photos, all holiday photos from our travels all around the world in my old HP laptop and forgot my password.. 5 years later using this video finally managed to access all my photos and documents. I am so happy I could cry 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much, dude. My dad uploaded a ton of digital photos to his account in 2006 and doesn't remember his password at all. I'm gonna give this a go.
I was a non- believer and it seems that Everytime I tried something It never worked, until now! WOW!! It really works if you follow everything he does. Thank You! 👌
Do the cmd prompt option instead and type into prompt “explorer” because it logs u in automatically I think as that is what happened with my windows 10 pc without my pin. Edit : DOES NOT WORK FOR XP
I can’t thank you enough!!! I turned off my old computer 10 years ago😂😂😂 I turned it off to see what pictures I have on my old Acer… and I couldn’t remember. God Bless you.

@@kelvinolmosierra1883 what you can do is turn off the computer 2-3 times by using the button on the computer, after that the menu for choosing recovery mode will show up by itself
I’ve seen so many BS ways on the internet of how to do exactly what you just did but by downloading these files on to a usb then using BIOS to boot up with the new program which never worked till I came along and WATCHED THIS! Thanks dude this laptop I saved now will be passed down to my daughter.
This didn't work in "Home Edition" until after I tweaked it a little. After opening in Safe Mode, in the Windows sign in screen, only the user account came up. After several trial and errors, I removed the name, and replaced it with - Administrator - and hit enter with no password added. After that I was able to follow your other instructions until I hit another snag. Even though I'd removed the password, the sign in screen appeared again on my next boot and wouldn't let me in. So I followed the same process again, except this time I added a new password. After that everything has worked. Thank you so much for getting me there! One thing I wish I'd remembered before I started this whole process is the "password hint". I'm sure I put one in originally, and it might have been enough. I'll never know, but that's okay. I've got the old computer open again so I can retrieve what I need. Again, thank you!
This worked flawlessly. One caveat - make sure your keyboard's F key function is working. In my case, I have a keyboard that has F keys linked to other operations (here, F8 is also Save). I had to activate the F-Lock to make F8 function. After I had that straightened out, everything was gold.

It worked for me! After many years, I forgot my password and did not understand my hint either. I have XP service pack 3. Not sure why it would not work for other people. Once you click on the user account, select remove password, and ensure you click on the other dialog box to remove password. It should then show you the password was removed.
Omg. The intro tune played! 😂 Forgot about that! Thank you so much for this 🎉 It worked right along with your video, few pauses needed. I can see my work from over a decade ago! Thank you.

When I click restart and hold f8 it doesnt take me to same screen as yours. It goes to a black screen then starts beeping then it just restarts back to the original log in screen.
Dug out my old Dell haven't used it for 8+ years and could not recall my password - this worked it was bang on thank you so much we have had lots of fun finding loads of old photos and music that we thought we had long lost :-)
I did the start with safe mode and it brings again a window saying : press the Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart. And then it takes me back to asking administration’s password
I was able to access my old files that I created over 21 years ago thanks to your tutorial! Now I can upgrade my desktop from XP to vista to 8.1 to 10 and 11. I also saw Windows 95 on my desktop as well!
After hours of trying different things this actually worked out for me. I'm not a computer smart person. So thank you very much for the easy easy way into the laptop

Super helpful and easy to follow. Thank you so much! I've had this little Acer Aspire One lying around for years and just pulled it out and realized I had a password on it that I couldn't remember.

Extremely useful, sometimes I find old PCs and laptops in the wild and I really get curious about their contents and this lets me explore them like timeboxes
Thank you so much for this. Thanks to you I was able to access my parents old computer and get to all of our pictures from so long ago that were otherwise lost.
