- Click Start > Control Panel > User Accounts.
- Left-click your account name.
- Under the Related Tasks left side options, click Prevent a forgotten password.
- Follow the directions in the Forgotten Password Wizard to create a password reset disk.
- Store the disk in a secret location, because anyone can use it to access your local user account.
