Using LinuxLite to repair Win 7 password
#9
Another thing you can try is to rename SAM to SAM.old and then copy the version of SAM from ../system32/RegBack over to the ../config folder. This should give you your previous password back if the date of the backup SAM file predates the problem.

The entries, Last Known Good Configuration, and ~Revert to Restore Point~ in the Win7 Advanced Boot menu (F8 as Windows just begins to load) might do the same thing, not sure.
