Alright I need help resetting a Windows Password where I work. It is on a standard user account. I know admin passwords I just don't know the userpassword . (Windows 7 if it helps)

Is it a local user, or a AD-User?

Please quote me in any answers to my posts, so that I can read them easily and don´t forget about them. Thanks!

 

I love spending my time with PC tinkering, networking and server-stuff.

Local

There are 2 accounts. A admin and a standard and I need the standard reset 

Go into Computer administration (at least acording to google translator, it's called "Computerverwaltung" in german) -> Local Users and Groups -> Search for the user -> right-click

 

There you should be able to reset it.
