Most people usually only know how to create a new user with a strong password or change it. But they don't develop a habit to create a password reset disk for preventing lost password. It is a great and free gift from Microsoft. If you have created a password reset disk before for your user account, please follow steps below:

• Insert the Windows password reset disk to the PC.
• On the logon screen, click the Reset password link under the Password box.
• In the pop-up wizard window, click Next to continue.
• After you figure out which drive the disk is in, select the correct one for it.
• Choose a new password and its hint for the user account you are rescuing. Then, click Next to continue on.

Note: a. A password longer than 10 chars is recommended. Learn How to Create a Strong Password.

b. The new password hint should suggest you only.

6. Click Finish button to quit the password recovery wizard.
