    I had forgotten my password to my old Toshiba …tried for 2 weeks trying everything I could think of as my PW. At 70 years I thought I would never get the PW right. Then I found your video. Long story short you talked me through it. Thanks to you I actually did it. My friend don’t ever think no one appreciates your video. I see lots of other happy people like me. Now you helped to fix my problem what can you do to get world peace and fix climate change. I am truly thankful for your video and the help you gave me.

    Worked on my 7 year old computer running windows 7. Got my files back. Thank you!
    Actually, the first portion didn't work for me. I downloaded an iso of Kali linux and a program named "etcher". Used Etcher to make a bootable flash drive for Kali linux with ease. The old PC boot right up with that flash drive and it gave me full access to the files in the win32 directly. (First time I used Linux actually. Pretty Cool!) I renamed the 2 files with ease and the rest was as you described. The command line interface worked like a charm.

    Thanks!.... I want to mention something here... I couldn't access the files the way you did in the video because my screen "where the magic happens" was different. They must have removed that option as a security measure so what I did was a workaround. I used a "Mini XP" boot CD which allowed me to access the system 32 files and then change the file names around. Once this was accomplished everything else worked as you outlined it in the steps to change the password. Once again, thank you.

      It doesn't matter if it's a virtual machine or reap one. Maybe it's even better, that you have it on a virtual machine. In that case you have to rename those files by any means available to you. For example, you can boot from a USB flash drive which contains a portable Windows like Hiren's boot CD or use a bootable USB drive with Windows 7/10/11 or you can use an ISO image. And then just follow the instructions on the video. Try my new updated video for Windows 10 and Windows 11 which will explain how to do that: th-cam.com/video/-0crAEE-6hA/w-d-xo.html and you can apply that technique to windows 7 to rename those two files.

    Didn't work for me (Dell laptop W7 Ultimate). When carrying out the repair, it goes through 'loading files' then comes to System Recovery Options (asking for country keyboard setting etc) then says 'To access recovery options log on as a local user'. I will never get the the 'unable to repair' option. Looks like I might have to buy software to get past the sole account password.

      Go to the BIOS settings of your laptop/desktop and make sure that the USB keyboard/mouse support feature is ON. In the recovery mode your system doesn't boot drivers for your peripherals so we need to turn on hardware support. If it's old Desktop computer you can also connect keyboard with PS/2 connector. They don't need any drivers or settings.

    My old HP didn't allow the full path, but the reset during boot got me into the HP fixit screens. One of the options was a command prompt, which allowed me to make the file-name swap, then to complete the process.
    Thanks!

    This didn't work for me. I followed to the letter and i get an explorer.exe and another error on login, followed by a black screen with just the mouse. I feel something went wrong with sys32. I even reverted the filenames back to normal after resetting the password in cmd and still same problem. Just a word of warning to others that things can go wrong.

    Hi, im really bad at technology so forgeting my password it was a trauma for me since i was unable to get any help from anywhere. SO this video was recommanded to me by a friend( Thank you Aryan) . I saw it many times untill i learned the steps, i even write then down to make sure im not skipping anything. And it worked. It took me more than one hour cause i wasnt sure what i was doing and made some mistakes( that bad i am) but at the end with a bit of helpfrom another friend(thank you Vish) on typing the last 2 commands i succeded. You cant imagine how happy i am. Its life saving! Millon thanks and you really did a great job explaining it so simply and clearly even for people with no knowledge in this field! May God bless you! Really helpful, i learn a lot of things also! I only hope my kid will not see this video😅.

    IMPORTANT DETAIL: Your computer must be connected to the internet via a network cable before launching the Startup Repair process. If your computer is not connected to the internet, the "Send information" window, visible at 1:14, will not pop-up at the end of the repair process, and you will not be able to click "View problem details" button and this method will not work. PS: I have not tested whether internet connection via WiFi will work. I can only confirm that it works via cable.
