Change anyone's User Account password in XP

 To change a password of any user account just follow the steps below:

• Reboot your computer in safe mode.
  
• Log into any user’s account. (It will not ask you for any password)
  
• Go to Start -> Run and type cmd
  
  
  
• It will open Command prompt. Type cd C:\windows\system32 in the command prompt and hit Enter (If you have installed XP on a drive other than C drive, then change your drive name accordingly)

• Take a backup of Logon.scr file by typing Copy Logon.scr Logon.bak on the command prompt
  

• Now type Copy cmd.exe Logon.scr in the command prompt and you are all set to change any user’s password on that computer
  

• If you want to change the administrator's password you can type net user administrator YourPassword (Here YourPassword is the new password that you want to set)
  
  

• Likewise if you want to change the password of a user by the name “Student“, you can type net user student YourPassword to change it’s password.
  
• Restart your PC in normal mode and log in to administrator’s account with your hacked password.
  
• You are done.
