2. using kon-Boot

One of the most obvious and easiest ways to add another layer of protection to your computer is protecting your account with a password. It’s easy enough to do and you can either supply a new password during install, on first run of your new computer or later on through User Accounts in Control Panel. Although not quite as important on a single user machine, passwords are essential when multiple users have access to the same computer or when trying to lock down your child’s user account with parental controls etc.

One of the most common and also frustrating problems you’ll encounter when attempting to troubleshoot or repair a computer, is either the user has forgotten or doesn’t know the logon password or they’re not available to give you that important piece of information. Knowledgeable users will know this actually isn’t as big a problem as it seems and there are various ways to get around a Windows logon password without knowing what it is.

For example, if no-one knows or remembers it, the password can be removed from the user account and reset by using a utility from a boot CD. If you want to find out what the password is without resetting it first, you can try to crack it with a tool such as Ophcrack. A few years back we also wrote about a program called DreamPack PL where you can hack into a Windows XP computer without changing the password. Each method has its plus and minus points, but there’s also another way to login to a computer where you don’t actually make any permanent changes to the computer or need to reset/remove the password at all.

Kon-Boot is one of the way to bypass authentication of your windows xp machine.

Kon-Boot Free Version

Kon-Boot 1.1 is free version, But it lacks some features found in subsequent versions and it is limited regards with windows OS.Kon-Boot 2.4 is latest version of Kon-Boot, and I have tested it on windows XP/7.

Kon-Boot is free and easy. You just burn live ISO file to CD or pendrive.  

After you Download Kon-Boot Free  and write it onto CD or USB, simply boot your computer to that device (you will need to set the boot device in the BIOS) an whid ate screen will popup. Press any key and a black screen will popup showing the process of hooking BIOS functions (the version number 2.4 appears to be an oversight by the developer). After a few more seconds the computer will start to boot normally.

Now the login screen will appear press or type anything in password or hit enter.  Not every computer’s BIOS will allow Kon-Boot to work but the majority will be fine if the operating system is compatible.
