Here is a Windows password recovery software program I am downloading right now and hoping it works because I have no USB memory stick I want to use to recover/reset the Windows 7 password I have forgotten.  Now with that all said has anyone used this program?  Has anyone used something else that will work well off of burned media?

I would say use Kali linux on a USB then use Ophcrack, I used it once on my laptop for fun and it worked.

Yeah, I use a copy of Ophcrack. But that's the only real "password recovery" tool I've ever used.

Download HirenBoot 10.6 if it didn't work.

Well I didn't know how to use all the features of Ophcrack but it attempted to recover the password and it didn't happen for me.  If my son would have only behaved and listened when he used my pcs and consoles as so much would not have been locked down so many times and left me wondering what the hell today's password is.

I am trying this one now as I was already burning it to media and so yeah if this doesn't work I will try what you recommended.  I already have the website up and ready in case.

I think it is getting to the point soon where just installing Windows 7 again is the best option. Still I don't mind trying these different tools as I am having fun over the last few days dealing various pc hardware and software issues.

This one worked and was a breeze to use.
