I’ve been locked out of my admin on the pc since windows 10 sort of forced me to create separate access privileges for my admin account a couple of years ago.

As of 16/02/2022, this general process still works on windows 10. It is true that you no longer can access a system-wide command prompt in the very beginning to rename files like he did in the same way he shows you, but there are still other ways, namely using a usb-stick that has windows installation media on it, then in the BIOS booting your computer through that usb stick. Once your windows is in the boot up menu for windows 10, press shift + f10, and it brings up the command prompt. Then just follow his steps for the rest of the video and it'll work.

@slovenc0417 4 жыл бұрын

Kirt your solution is very detailed and easy to follow, but I cannot get into the Command Prompt from the Advanced Options Window. When I select Command Prompt, I get two options. Option 1 is to "Choose an account to continue". If I select my account, I am asked for a password. Option 2 says "Forgot your password or don't see your account?". If I select this, it basically says that accounts listed are only admin accounts that have previously signed into this PC. And, you need to be signed in as an admin to use some repair and restore tools. Finally, it says that if you do not have a PW you can try restarting and logging in as an admin. It's worth noting that when I get to the Advanced Options window, the same options (as shown in your video) are available, but in a slightly different order. I know that should not matter, but I wonder if there was a Windows update that closed this loop hole. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

After resetting the user password while the cmd window is open you can delete the file utilman.exe and rename utilman2.exe because you are System authority

For all watching this worked despite them having only the admin account active which was password protected. I am an I.T. guy who regularly has to crack passwords but all my usual tools failed as the laptop as it has a Ryzen chipset, aaarrrgghh! I followed Kirt's instructions and now I am in. How did I not know this trick? Kudos to you sir, thank you very much! P.S. I watched several other videos with roughly the same idea but was thwarted because the user was using the admin account with a password so the 'system restore' method was unavailable.

Thank you very much for this video. It worked like a charm! It was actually a Windows 7 machine I was working with, (which I was unaware of) but worked well.

When I hit the option for command prompt, it still wants me to login which defeats the purpose of trying to go around the not having a password

If you can, load windows onto a usb with a different computer. Then insert it into your computer. When it gets to the screen that looks like the video at 3:14, click “Next” at bottom right. Then at the next screen, click repair at the bottom left. You should be able to use the command prompt now without needing the password.

You are the best. Even after purchasing a software, it still cannot reset my password. Your instruction is clear, and best is that it works.

I got farther with this video than any other solution I've tried, however when I get to the applet window to change the password, everything is greyed out, and it says "the password for this user cannot be changed". And it is the only user set up.
