Hi Guys, Does anybody know, how to find and change the Administrative password other than from control panel option, if the Windows XP is corrupted, this was a question asked to my friend for his interview
You can do this several ways, one would be to right click my computer and go to manage, this will pull up the computer manager where you can then go into users and groups, then users and right click the administrative user to change password.
You can also be logged in as administrator, ctrl-alt-delete and click change password.
There are also netsh and net commands to perform this function from the command line, google net and netsh for those answers
If you cant right click my computer you can pull up your MMC by start > run type "mmc" into the box and enter, then add the computer management mondule and do it there
Lastly you can open computer manager on another network system, then right click up top where it says computer management (my computer) and click connect to remote computer, enter the other systems IP address or name and it should let you connect and change password with correct credentials

You can change any passwords for that matter, there is a window tweak command which you can use. Just type usercontrolpasswords2 in the run command and hit enter. Then a screen pops up where you can set passwords for any user on that computer.

yes it can be changed by repairing the window.
while repairing when blue sreen works over then the installation process starts on graphical mode.
press shift+f10 when the option comes "Installing Devices.
