Top 10 Windows Password Recovery Tools


If you ever forget your Windows password or you just want to recover the lost password or in case you need to enter a system for which you do not know the password, you would like to take a look at the following list of top 10 Windows password recover tools.

Ophcrack: The Ophcrack Windows password cracker is one of the best free Windows password recovery tool available. With Ophcrack, you don't have to access Windows in order to be able to recover your lost passwords. You just need to visit the site, download the free ISO image, burn it to a CD and boot from the CD. The Ophcrack program will start, locate the Windows user accounts, and proceeds to recover (crack) the passwords - all by itself. Ophcrack supports Windows Vista, Windows 7,and Windows XP.

OfflineNTPassword & Registry Editor: Offline NT Password & Registry Editor works more as a Windows password reset tool since it erases your Windows password instead of recovering it. Like Ophcrack, You just need to visit the site, download the free ISO image, burn it to a CD and boot from the CD. After running the program, you will be able to log in to your Windows account without entering a password at all.

It supports Windows 7, Windows 2000, Windows Vista, and Windows NT. It also works with 64-bit versions of these operating systems.

PC Login Now: likeOffline NT Password & Registry Editor, PC Login Now erases your Windows password instead of recovering it allowing you to access Windows without a password.

Another advantage is that PC Login Now causes Windows to detect a possible hard drive problem on the first reboot after deleting the password.

Kon-Boot: Kon-Boot is yet another free password reset program, much like ONTP&RE and PC Login Now but it works differently than the two password reset tools. You just need to burn the program to a disc, boot to it, and you will have a password free access to Windows. It's very, very easy to use and probably the fastest password reset tool available.

It supports Windows Vista PC and Windows XP but unfortunately, Kon-Boot 1.0 does not work with 64-bit versions of Windows.
