Login password lost – Vista

Hi
My Step daughter bought a Vista Business edition Laptop. In her
excitement she set up a main account for personal use and a limited
account for work. She has used it for work and has forgotten her main
password. No recovery discs were made and she is not sure where the
documentation or accompanying discs are.

She is a lovely girl so what can you say. Any help getting into her
main account appreciated.

Re: Login password lost - Vista

I'm not the OP, but
FWIW, I tried this program, and it didn't work.
It said it couldn't find an installed OS.
I'm running Vista SP2, so maybe it doesn't recognize the beta.......
