Hello, how do I recover my password in XP, Vista and win 7?

Hello,

 

In Vista, XP and win 7, let's say that i forgot my password as admin or a limited user. How would i be able to get back in with each of these operating systems. i think this would be a good thing to know.

 

thanks,

I am having trouble locating these resources. If you could guide me to the proper links for XP, Vista and Win 7 it would be really cool. If anyone else has any ideas, please print them here.

I'm glad to see that you have a detailed answer, more than I could have given.

 

Of course they may require you to know the password when you make the disks ..... so it's no bad idea to use a Password archive tool ... even a piece of paper ...
