Simple tutorial showing how to reset any Windows 7/8/10 account password using Windows Recovery Environment.
Reset Windows 7/8/10 Password
===============================
The Ease of Access Center Method
Reboot into Windows recovery environment. If you don’t have one, create a bootable USB using the method described in or just burn a Windows 7/8/10 ISO to a DVD.
Boot using the USB / DVD.
Click Next – Repair My Computer – Troubleshoot – Advanced Options -Command Prompt
or Simply press Shift+F10 anytime.
Type the following commands:
cd /d C:WindowsSystem32
ren Utilman.exe Utilman.exe.bak
copy cmd.exe Utilman.exe
Here, we basically change the executable for Ease of Access Center with that of command prompt.
Type exit and click on ‘Turn off your PC’.
Now, remove the USB and boot into Windows.
Now, click on ‘Ease of Access’ icon. A command prompt will open.
Now, you have two choices. Either you activate the admin account, login, and then reset the password for other user, or, change password directly.
In case of 1st option, type this:
net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator *
..Type the password here. It won’t be visible, for security reasons 🙂
In case of second option, type this:
net user
..See the username of the user you want to reset password for
net user replace_this_word_with_username *
..Type the password here. It won’t be visible, for security reasons 🙂
Type exit and hit enter.
In the video, I followed the first method.
Time to revert back changes.
Click on ‘Ease of Access Center’ again
In case of 1st option, type this:
net user administrator /active:no
Type exit and hit enter.
In case of 2nd option, do nothing 🙂
Boot again, to the recovery environment. Open Command prompt. Now type:
cd /d C:WindowsSystem32
del Utilman.exe
ren Utilman.exe.bak Utilman.exe
exit
Now remove the bootable media and reboot back to Windows!
Done! 😀
That is all folks! 😀

Mine is windows 7 pro. The user name is AGAlnguyen. I did the same thing but did not see "Administrator" login option popping out.

i have problem windows is hibarnated refused to mount..
haven't been able to download an iso file onto my memory card or usb stick. I then have to change boot sequence which isntveasy on a Dell.
my Dell pc only has usb and card ports.
Msoft won't allow me to reset password as they won't accept my answers as good enough. even though I only sent test emails after setting up account.
whatever option I try from advanced options asks for my password b4 it will allow me to progress any further.
Didn't work as asked to enter password befor it will reboot to command prompt. Thoughts ideas desperate
After I did the first part, when I click on ease of access, nothing happens 🙁 please help
