Change your user password without knowing the password
By Mitz

Here's a little trick to change a user password on a computer. However to do this you must be logged in as an Administrator.

For example I am an administrator on my computer which allows me to change anyone else's password, including mine, even without knowing the password in the first place. Sometimes  I like to change my children's passwords when I have banned them from using the computer..

 

  1. Go to the Start menu and choose Run....
  2. Type cmd /k net user. This will list the users on your computer.
  3. Then type net user mitz * This will let you type a new password in. Next time the user logs in, that will be the password. Mitz is the username. Replace it with the username of the account you want to change. If the username contains spaces like mitz ritz you must put the name like this net user "mitz ritz" *
