Using a Password Reset Disk
If you have lost your password but have a password reset disk that you made earlier, you can use it to log on. Just attempt to sign on using the Welcome screen. When the logon fails, click Reset Password. Then, follow the Password Reset Wizard’s instructions to change your password and store the password reset disk away for another rainy day. You don’t need to remake the disk after using it.
