Notes

1. Any information can be used for good and evil: it all depends on who uses this information and for what purpose ... I hope that you will need this information to good purpose: you forgot the password to her (!) PC, do not reset same OS! ..

2. Using a password increases the security of your computer. If your computer has multiple users, personal settings, programs and system resources will be better protected if the login name or user account name assigned password.

3. Built-in Administrator account is present in the Welcome window, only if there are no other accounts (except the guest account) or if the computer is booted in Safe Mode.

4. You can try to "crack" the password using special programs (but that's another story !..).

5. You can reset the password using the previously created disk recovery / reset the password.
