My grandfather lost his password?

My grandparents have a computer they always loose but they went away for the summer and now that they are home they can't remimber their password. I guess they didn't write it down anywhere either. Is there anyway to log on with a password so they can get a new on?

    What kind of computer are they using? Windows? Mac? Linux (that'd be cool).

    Regardless the answer is yes to all of those operating systems but the task is a little different for each one.

    I'm gonna take a guess and say it's probably Windows so using another computer get yourself a copy of the NTOffline Password Recovery tool and use that to reset the password. As long as you own the computer or have permission to use the tool on someones machine it's totally OK to use this tool :-)

  • Password to what? The computer? To log into Facebook? The Internet? Their Email?

    Being specific would be helpful.

    You need to give more information about the computer ( brand/model ) and the operating system that's installed.
