How to change password without knowing old password



 In this article I have given the tricks on how to change the password without knowing the existing one. This trick is mainly used for the people who forgot their admin password. The trick is also used to change other user’s password because it will allow you to change the password without knowing the old password. I hope everyone may use this trick for good purpose.

How to change password without knowing old password

Step 1: Follow the below steps to view all user accounts.

    Go to Start & Run Then type ‘CMD’.
    In the command prompt window, type ‘cmd net users’. This will show you the user account on that computer including the hidden accounts.


Step 2: Just follow the below steps to change the account password

    Logged into the computer that has administrative rights. Then go to Start & Run type ‘CMD’.
    In the command prompt window type ‘net user’ space ‘the name of the account’ then * and press enter. Example: net user administrator * or net user "TRICKS GOD" *. (Put the name in quotes if it contains spaces)
    It asks you to enter the new password. Type the new password very carefully because command window won't display what you type.
    Reenter the same password once again to confirm it.
    Then you will get a success message.

You’re done. Now you can access the user  accounts.
