Windows 8 Password Recovery Tips

According to Wikipedia, a password is a secret word or string of characters that is used for authentication, to prove identity or gain access to a resource. The password should be kept secret from those not allowed access。 If you forgot Windows password without a password reset disk or an accessible administrator password, it's often suggested that you should reinstall Windows to get back in your PC.

Under this circumstance, don't you think it's a big disaster for you if there're many confidential files on the computer? What should you feel lucky is that various third party Windows password recovery tool could bring you out of this disaster, like Rekeysoft Windows Password Recovery. It can help you instantly reset forgotten password on Windows 7/Vista/XP.

But what if you forgot Windows 8 password? Although the new operating system hasn't come out, you can imagine some Windows 8 password recovery solutions. A "detect human presence" API is in an early copy of Windows 8, according to an article on Slashgear. Details are scarce, but this could be related to facial recognition technologies noted in mid-2010 in Windows 8 planning documents that Microsoft shared with partners.

When you logon the Windows 8 operating system, two ways are available: traditional text password and graphical codes. If a device of touch screen is in use, users can logon directly with touch on it. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said that Windows 8 will launch in 2012, but the company hasn't been any more specific than that.

Log into Windows XP with this account, and then open the User Accounts window using control userpasswords2, and then select the target user account and click Reset password button to change the forgotten password.

If the default admin account is locked and forgot the password, you have no choice but resort to additional Windows password recovery tools. These tools allows you to burn a boot CD/DVD or USB drive to bypass your forgotten password in Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 2008, 2003, 2000.
