    As far as I know, there are a lot of tools and utilities that can be downloaded and used to recover, retrieve, reset windows password. However, I've tried a couple of these utilities through the years. The free software can help you, but you have to learn some computer skills and waste a lot time on learning.

If you can not remember the windows admin password, try to reset it with a reset disk. Free download windows password unlocker from http://www.passwordunlocker.com/products/wpu.html and there is a .iso file included. Burn the .ISO file onto a blank CD which is so-called windows password reset disk. With this disk, you can reset the unknown password without erasing anything

SOURCE: I can't log in

Hey there - Try booting into safe mode (hold F8 during boot up) choose the safe mode option. This should bring the administrative account available at the login screen. Hopefully you have not password protected it. If you can log into that account you can remove/change the password settings for the your account under the "users" in the control panel settings.

NOTE* This fix assumes you're operating in Windows XP

I forgot my password on my Dell Latitude 131L laptop, how can I reset w/out reset disc?

Start your computer into safe mode and log in as the built-in administrator account. If you can get in, open up the Control Panel and it lets you reset the password of any other account.

If you forgot Windows password and couldn't sign in with any account, you have to use the bootable utility like PCUnlocker, Chntpw, Ubuntu, Hiren's BootCD.

On your computer, point your web browser at http://www.facebook.com then click the "Forgot your password?" link located just below the password box.

After resetting your Facebook password, you'll have to log out of Facebook on your tablet and then log back in using the new password.

For got password to login in how do i fix this

brendapace3,
What are you trying to login into? Your Windows computer or a website?

If you are trying to log into your computer and forgot the password.
Try starting in Safe Mode, by restarting the computer, and as soon as you see the Computers Manufacturers logo start pressing F8 on the keyboard. Select Safe Mode from the options (usually option 3). When it loads select the Administrator account (unless you set a password when you installed your operatinsg system, this should not have a password set. Leave the password field blank and log in. Once logged in, go into Control Panel, Select user accounts and remove or change the password for your user account. Save changes. Exit control panel and Restart the computer.

If you forgot the password for a website, most sites have a Forgot Password or Need assistance with Logging in link. That link is usually under the login boxes.

Hope this helps
