What is the way to use the Command Prompt to change
passwords? I forgot my administrator password in my PC and
I saw a tech guy one day doing that trick with the DOS-
Command settings. I am in my PC as a user but I can't as
adminstrator. What are the commands to follow at DOS?
Thank you for your help!
