Hey Sup Forums my older brother died and left me his old ass windows 7 computer, but no password...
You got trolled
Time stamp
Respect his privacy and wipe everything. Then reinstall.
OP here
Why not just wipe it and reformat the PC?
You take the hard drive out and take a hammer to it, Then put an ssd in it and start your own porn collection. Thats the circle of life. Nature really is beautiful
What do you expect on the pc
Just install new OS and win or boot up from Linux through USB and try to get his files
format the HD
reinstall new OS
enjoi old new komputah
Take hard drive out, put it in slave drive slot of your pc. Start your windows like normal. Browse all the files in his drive. Once you take all the good stuff off the pc, do a fresh install.

OP here.
My brother was a photographer/tattoo artist and my mom wants to make a memorial to him using his art
As I remember there was a trick pressing some F key while booting, safe mode and then you can remove the password of other users
Look at the two posts above you.
The broken English really adds an air of legitimacy to your malware.

Thanks a bunch for the advice. I'm currnetly on the other side of the country cleaning out my brother's house. I was looking for a more immediate solution.
Open command prompt and use net user, change password for account needed
>use net user
You may want to explain that one.
>op tell me how to do this
>op tell me how to do it easy instantaneously
Jesus dude just find a computer and slave drive it, don't be such a picky bitch
Well there's your problem! You gotta put a beta fish in that mason jar. Otherwise it won't let your beta ass access the pc.
Fucking KEK
open cmd
type "net user"
look at all accounts
type "net user ACCOUNTNAME *"
type in new password
confirm new password
reboot + login

Download Hiren Boot CD onto a CD or flash drive. Go into BIOS by spamming F2 or some other key when the computer is turning on. Change the boot order to USB/CD instead of computer. Change password
ntpasswd
Nobody here asked how the mother fucker died
Really
Install DSL(damn small Linux) on thumb drive or cd drive boot up with it and access his drives and files through linux... done this many times for file recover and computers with a bad drive or bad OS
I told you he was a tatto artist, but he was also wrapped up in gang violence. He was shot in the heart by a gang member, thats all I know
this
if linux is too scary, you can also just plug the drive into another windows computer where you're an administrator, and you can read everything that way
Windows literally takes 4 minutes to reset admin account.
Holy fuck can't you just take a screwdriver and take the side panel off? Are you people okay? You need a doctor?
You give love a bad name.
Was he to blame?
This is the easiest OP
I did that backwards
Slitaz + ophcrack + decent rainbow table.
Any bootable Linux distribution on USB will give access to NTFS partitions.
All other advice here will not work.
YES
careful looking too hard through his pictures
you may find something you wish you didn't
Well that's impressive
take the hard drive out and put it in another rig, then you just click on it and it asks would you like to make all the documents accessible?
you say yes and it takes 3-7 minutes then boom you're in
That one
Password is:
Little brother is a faggot.
Used it a few days ago to get into a Windows 7 computer, burned to a USB drive.
You know it's legit because it looks shit and isn't trying to sell it to you.
Beat me to it.
Plus, faggot op already has several good options available to him.
Trust this software, op. It's gud.
Unless he had full disc encryption, just take out the HDD and plug it into your machine. And if you are unable to do that then put any Linux distro of your choosing onto a USB drive, do a live boot so you have a live Linux desktop, and access the HDD as you please.
If it is encrypted then you will have to find a backdoor in or you are shit out of luck.
to clarify, if it's encrypted, op is definitely 100% out of luck
he needs to ask Sup Forums how to get files off a probably unencrypted drive, so he obviously knows just barely enough about computers to use a web browser
>format disk
>install Ubuntu
>forget about password
Reboot in safe mode. Sometimes there is an admin account without a password.
Log into it and remove the password on your brothers account.

You are right. I just knew if I said "encrypted = you are fucked" then some other fucktard would be like pic related.
OP here
Thanks for all your help so far!
I tried to activate safe mode with command prompt, but all it did was load up regularly with a lower resolution, what am I doing wrong?
Jesus we have an op haxxor here. You think you need a fucking rainbow key to wipe a Windows password. Even with a beefy computer it would take hours rather than the two minutes the hirenz mentioned above would take.
is the desktop black with a little "safe mode" in the bottom right corner?
>take the hard drive out and put it in another rig, then
Bewm.
Konboot has worked great for me. never tried on Win7 but it's supposed to be compatible.
You are clearly not reading the replies to your own thread. Stop booting directly into the HDD. Either put in a live Linux USB/CD, so you can access the files from outside of the Windows installation. Or take out the HDD and plug it into your machine, and access the files that way.
Fucking suave.
Kekd and checkd
Put it in safe startup. Restart it. Unplug it mid restart. Turn it back on. When you go through the startup and repair menu theres a way to open notepad. Then you can navigate through files to the command prompt and reset the password. Im sure im missing a step. But it works. Had to recover computers around the house likw that

You just put it on a disc or a USB and boot from it. Should get you through the password thing.
try trinity rescue kit, boot on to that from a CD, then set password to be blank
just realized Konboot is only free for the 32-bit version. if you have 64-bit OS, you might find the pirated version on torrent sites like TPB.

Now post nudes
Nigger please. Look up the control interface password retrieve. Google it. Fucking amateurs.
> just download this software from a mega link posted on Sup Forums and use it as a boot disk giving it full control over your computer
seems legit
IT Sec expert reporting in.
To what do you want access ? Data or System ?
Data i imagine
>seems legit
most likely its a virus so new it hasnt been classified yet by the AV engines, cpz virustotal.com says its clean.
OP here
I'm guessing the Data. I want to retrieve his photos and art. I'll probably have to take the hard drive back home and plug it into my computer.
OP is a troll, abandon thread
Ive used this one for years. Didn't work in a windows 10 system. Works fine on 7
3 words...hirens boot cd
>I was looking for a more immediate solution
bc makking a memmorrial is an immediate task
stop trying to hack in someones computer you fucking slag
your occupation is a joke, and you're a dolt.
carry on.
OP here
Lol, I ment "immediate" as in I'm at my brother's house on the other side of the country and all I have is my phone. I'll be here for about a week and a half and my mom wanted to make a small memorial for the viewing next week.
OP here
Well, the thread is dead now. I just wanted to say, thanks for all the support and dealing with my faggotry
Ophcrack
look up "live cd"
burn one
boot to it
mount windows partition
look up "location of windows passwords"
look up "online ntlm hash"
hash "letmein" copy the result
open windows shadow file (joke for the people that understand) open the file you looked up.
change the hash next to the user acount you want to compromise
enjoy finding out that your brother slept with me and looked at diaper porn
priceless memories
Your brother didn't die, you're just a dirty thief who stole this from someone.
I'm OP's brother and I promise I just died!
wat the fuck its really him...tell your dumbass little brother your password you faggot. your mom want to memorials your shit or look at your cp stash
