Some people may prefer this method to the universal steps above. Follow the instructions below for your situation and operating system.
These instructions are for changing passwords for accounts residing directly on your computer, not for Active Directory passwords. This holds true even if your Active Directory account is an administrator on the computer. If you forget the administrator password for your computer, you'll need to contact a local computer repair shop, where they'll have the tools to administratively reset your administrator password.

Kon-Boot is an prototype piece of software which allows to change contents of a linux kernel and now Windows kernel also!!!

For Windows systems it allows to enter any password protected profile without any knowledge of the password.

This is very easy to do, but rather than explain it all here, ive found two articles that show you exactly how to do it.
This is the easiest method, but for this you need to have the Windows Setup DVD that came with you computer, if not go to the second link. If you dont have the setup DVDs, then follow this link to fix it.
This method requires a bit more work though, but is just as effective. Assuming you can log on, I have read that running explorer using the at scheduler in the command prompt gives you admin rights, I haven't tried it though :.

Use arrow keys to select XP installation if you only have one, it should already be selected and press R to begin the Repair process.

Just don't do anything, and it will boot automatically now when you see Installing Device Bar in the lower left bottom corner. Write command nusrmgr.
To edit passwords or remove them, you can also type Change userpasswords2 in the console to add a new user with any password. Now log in with new credentials after the repair process completes successfully.

Then do a double click on the newly created option and enter the value to 1 and press Ok. Now restart the window you will see a new Administrator user login without a password and make it to change the password of the lost account.
