Recently C&D Sign Company sold their business to a local church. Now I have this machine in my shop, and all my efforts to reset the password, including Ophcrack, and many other methods, changing utilman.exe to cmd.exe are to no avail.

C&D Sign Company is the Administrator. Two other accounts are standard users. The hidden Administrator account is not accessible because I don't have the password for C&D.

Net User error "The command completed with one or more errors. It has to be the user name, C&D Sign Company!

Trying this: net user command ... I entered net user C&D Sign Company none ...

Generated Report is as follows: account active - YES Account Expires - NEVER Password last set - 2/13/19 Password expires 3/27/2019
Password changeable 2/13/19
Password required - YES The user may change password - YES
Workstations allowed - ALL Last Login - 2/1/3/19
Login Hours allowed - ALL Local Group Memberships *Users
Global Group memberships *None The command completed successfully. 'D' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. (referring to C&D, I assume.) There is an account on the machine with nothing in it, a standard account, non-admin labeled "C."

Please help me. The Church has all the hardware to make the signs and needs the computer to program the equipment. Thank You.

I found a program called Offline NT Password and Registry Editor. This little GEM did the trick, cleared the password, and got me back on track with the machine.
