You cant really talk about trying to disable security features, as that is considered hacking...

However, assuming that this is your computer, you have two options:

1. Try to find a utility online to disable the password at startup so that you can log in; Im not sure that I would trust a utility like that, but it really depends on how desperate you are.

2. Slave the drive into another computer, recover all of your data off it, reformat the hard drive, and take it as a lesson learned.

This sort of question is not allowed on the board as we have no way of knowing if the request is real. The thread is closed.

However, if you are the administrator of the system, then you can change the password for any user on the system from the control panel.
