(I'm going to skip the part where they teach you how to make a Restore disk. Nobody here should need their hand held on that)
3- On the screen choose to open the Command Prompt:
4- Type copy c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe c:\ and hit Enter key:
5- Type copy c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe
and hit Enter key, when prompted to Overwrite, Type : Yes and hit Enter key again, close the command window, and restart your PC:
6- When you reach the LogOn screen hit the Shift key 5 times, a command window will open, Type the following, see the picture below :
net user (type the name of the account) (Type any password)
and hit Enter Key, and when prompted to overwrite, Type Yes, and hit Enter Key again, and close the command window, and log on with the new password you just created:
7- After that you might want to put the original sticky key file back in its place, so go ahead and boot your PC with the repair CD or USB that you made early in this tutorial, and in the command prompt window type the following ( see picture below ):
copy c:\sethc.exe c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe
press Enter, then when prompted to Overwrite, type Yes and hit Enter key again, then close the window, and restart the PC.
================================================
My own thoughts: This won't work if you've turned off StickeyKeys. It also just crossed my mind to tweak a system when I've got it to facilitate this (probably wouldn't but...)
