Freecat Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 This is how I do it in my shop: From windows 10 disk Simply press SHIFT + F10 to open a command prompt at first install screen. Make a backup of the file utilman.exe (Ease of Access) and then replace it with cmd.exe (Command Prompt), by running the following commands: copy d:\windows\system32\utilman.exe d:\ copy /y d:\windows\system32\cmd.exe d:\windows\system32\utilman.exe You can now add a new user account in Windows 10 so you can regain full access to your system. Enter the following commands and replace {user_name} with the account name of your choice. net user {user_name} /add net localgroup administrators {user_name} /add Restart into new admin account Put CMD and UTILMAN back where they belong Do your work, remove other user passwords, create a new account, etc.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzinie Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 OP, what is the most effective method to reset the password according to your test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-ee Jones Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I use a method similar to Freecat's - the difference being I replace the sticky keys program (sethc.exe), then once you've booted to Windows on the local HDD you can just tap Shift 5 times and you've got an Administrator cmd. Create a user, or reset the password to the current one, and you're in. Stupidly easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_ Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Here is a step-by-step of how I would reset the password: //using Kali, run main hard drive in terminal (right click on it and select "open in terminal"), then type: cd Windows/System32/config ls -l SAM* chntpw -l SAM chntpw -u <USER> SAM //you are now able to change all passwords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they fail on the latest Win 10. You can use now create a password reset with other tools (mostly commercial), then use it to crack the password. The other option is via command prompt or enable the default admin account. Resource: https://www.passmoz.com/reset-windows-10-password.html It is great. I just did it with command prompt and it worked like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linodavis Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Safe mode is a simple and convenient method. I have used it and it works. You can reset the win 10 password without a disk in 4 steps. In addition, after putting this issue on Google, I also found a method such as Security Questions, Built-in Administrator Account, etc., which is said to reset the Windows 10 password.

barbywindys Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hello, Firstly, you can try to get back into your Windows 10 by using a Microsoft live account. If you lost your live account password, you can recover it from: Microsoft Live website. If you cannot log on Windows 10 for that you need the password for your local admin account, you can use a Windows 10 install disk to copy cmd.exe and rename it to utilman.exe, then open it from Windows 10 login screen. So you can unlock Windows 10 admin password by using command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, did you really just reply to a question you asked?? I meam, the purpose of JtR is to crack hashes. So you need the login hashes. You can't just "crack login with JtR" without having hashes.

This method is not my choice. If this problem makes me feel helpless, I would rather make a clean system safe, but if you do what Cikimi said, if you make a mistake, it will make the problem more troublesome.
