Can you bypass the start-up password in Windows 7?

Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. The only way to reset your windows password 100% safe is to use a software called Reset Password Pro.

The software allows you to create a boot-disk, that can be made on a CD/DVD or USB stick. The boot-disk can then be inserted into any locked machine, and it's a simple case of pressing reset. Here is their official site: http://www.resetwindowspass.com/

You can DIY a reset CD! It is very easy.

Log onto another computer that is linked tp Internet and the free download Windows password reccovery from www.windows7password.net ; Note the included .ISO file.

Burn the .ISO file onto a blank CD.

Insert the newly created CD into the locked computer, then just do as the process of instruction. So you can reset the previous password within steps.

No. If you could then there wouldn't be any need to have a password. That's what the password is for. So

unauthorized people can't get into the computer.

Not without the password. There are password reset tools that you can use. They have to be bootable. Google it

you can always access the user files by booting from cd/usb using another OS like linux or bart-pe
