| Hello Brink
I have gone thru the "Method Three". Before I attempt it, my questions:
- does it work with Vista Home Basic (32 bit)?
- do I need a blank or any boot disc sort of thing? It seems like that.
Please confirm
Seems more complicated than it had sounded.
I do not have emails associated with the forgotten password, but I remember
whenever I had to download something, I had to provide this password. After I
reset the password, would I still be able to access those programs that I
have downloaded and installed using the existing (but forgotten) password?
Please help before I go completely crazy with this.
Thanks | |

Seeking,
Yes, it will work on all Vista versions. It shows you how to create a boot DVD (or USB flash drive, etc...) to use on your computer to reset the password. If you have no access at all to your computer, then you will need to create the boot DVD on a friend's or another computer and use it on yours.
If your email messages have not been encrypted, then they will be fine. It only applies to encrypted files since the encryption certificate is tied to the user account password.
Hope this helps,
Shawn
