If you’ve lost your Windows password and you’re locked out of your computer, you can use the Ophcrack LiveCD to recover your password(s). This tutorial will guide you through doing just that.
- Start by downloading the Ophcrack Live CD. This is the longest part of the entire process, as it’s about 455MB.
- Burn the .iso file to CD. If you need help creating a boot CD from the .iso file, see this tutorial.
- After you’ve burned the .iso, set your computer to boot from your CD/DVD drive (make sure the CD is in the drive).
- You’ll be presented with the Ophcrack LiveCD menu. Leave the default selected and hit enter on your keyboard (or just wait 5 seconds for it to automatically boot).
- Slax, the version of Linux that is packaged with Ophcrack, will start up.
- Ophcrack will start on its own, and the passwords for each of your Windows users will be cracked and displayed on screen.
- Write down the password(s), remove the CD from your CD/DVD drive and restart your computer. Now you can log in to Windows again.
Great. But do this work with all versions of windows??
Segui os passos, mas vejo que o tutorial está incompleto. Entre os itens 5 e 6 não existe nenhuma ação? Como faço para chegar na tela onde encontram-se os usuários e as respectivas senhas?
Por favor, completem esse tutorial.

4.After launched the CD, a window pop up with all your account names(if you have several accounts); select one of the accounts that you have forgotten its password to reset it. Just one press, you have removed the password.
Hey, I also got locked out of my computer several days ago. I tried several free software. It took me two days and got quite messy. Unfortunately none of them work for me. Finally I made it work with password genius. The good news is that it works. The bad news is it is not free.
