Whether you work from home or are in a business setting there may come a time when you need to password protect access to your account. This means there may also come a time when you'll forget your password! So, to save you from yourself... let's create a password reset disk.* This disk will enable you to log into your computer!
  • Click Start
  • Click Control Panel
  • Click User Accounts
  • Click your User name
  • Under Related Tasks - click prevent a forgotten password
  • Follow the Forgotten Password Wizard to create a password reset disk.
  • Be sure to put this disk in a secure location! Anyone who finds it will be able to access your account!

And... there ya go!
