Most computers I repair are running XP Home OEM and the user most often has no
clue as to what the Administrator account is. My goal and objective is to
recover all data in the Favorites folder and the My Documents folder. Many
have the user account password protected. Many can not boot Windows due to a
crashed hard drive, messed up Windows or bad motherboard.
Another nice thing if you find a user account screwed up and are using
fast user switching withthe welcome screen: If no one is logged in you
can press CTRL-ALT-DEL Twice on the Select your user screen and the normal
windows login prompt will come up.
Way too often using username Administrator with no password gives you full
access to their system, even if they have a user account they forgot to
give you the password for.
