Knowing User password from Admin Login.

[writealexthomas]

In my home PC with Win XP, I have separate logins for myself and my cousin who uses my PC whenever he comes home. I have Admin controls. What I want to know is, is there any method by which I can enter his password protected login without resetting/removing his password? I want to check if he is not doing anything silly in my PC !

No....

Its Violation of privacy, so the password control was ment to prevent what u are willing to do...

So not possible...

I guess that I have to change the password from my admin login. Thats the only way out to enter the login. In short, password revelation is not possible, but password changing is !

Well said saurav and thomas...
It is illegal to hack into any password. However, being a administrator, one can wipe off or change the password.

yes u can change any user password without knowing their current password.. with this command.

net user administrator new-password

straightly go to "control userpasswords2" in the run and change the password without knowing the already password.
