Find Lost password for windows 98?

Answer 1

Passwords are completely useless in Windows 98. If you would like to recover a personal profile, all you need to do is delete the password file. It will be follow the syntax of USERNAME.PWL, where [USERNAME] is the name you log in with. Just delete this file. Then log in using a blank password, and change it in the Control Panel.

1st Method:

The first thing which you check if you forget login password. When we install Windows, it automatically creates an account "Administrator" and sets its password to blank. So if you have forget your user account password then try this:

Start system and when you see Windows Welcome screen / Login screen, press <ctrl>+<alt>+<del> keys twice and it'll show Classic Login box. Now type "Administrator" (without quotes) in Username and leave Password field blank. Now press Enter and you should be able to log in Windows.

Now you can reset your account password from "Control Panel -> User Accounts".

Same thing can be done using Safe Mode. In Safe Mode Windows will show this in-built Administrator account in Login screen.

2th Method:

There are many 3rd party utilities for password recover.
