Hack administrators password through guest login


Learn to hack administrators password through guest login
Ever wanted to hack your college pc with guest account/student account so that you can download with full speed Hack Administrator there? or just wanted to hack your friend’s PC to make him gawk when you tell your success story of hacking? well, there is a great way of hacking an administrator account from a guest account by which you can reset the administrator password and getting all the privileges an administrator enjoys on windows, Interested ? read on...

Concept:

Press shift key 5 times and the sticky key dialog shows up. This works even at the logon screen. But If we replace the sethc.exe which is responsible for the sticky key dialog, with cmd.exe, and then call sethc.exe by pressing shift key 5 times at logon screen, we will get a command prompt with administrator privileges because no user has logged on. From there we can hack the administrator password, even from a guest account.

Prerequisites
Guest account with write access to system 32.


Procedure To Hack windows XP administrator Password

Method 1 (Change Admin Password)


Here is how to do that:

1. Go to C:/windows/system32

2. Copy cmd.exe and paste it on desktop

3. Rename cmd.exe to sethc.exe

4. Copy the new sethc.exe to system 32, when windows asks for overwriting the file, then click yes.

5. Now Log out from your guest account and at the user select window, press shift key 5 times.

6. Instead of Sticky Key confirmation dialog, command prompt with full administrator privileges will open.

7. Now type “ Net user administrator aaa " where “ aaa " can be any password you like and press enter.

8. You will see “ The Command completed successfully " and then exit the command prompt and login into administrator with your new password.

9. Congrats you have hacked admin through guest account.

Method 2 (Access admin without changing password)

Also, you can further create a new user at the command prompt by typing “ NET USER How to hack /ADD " where "
 How to hack " is the username you would like to add with administrator privileges. Then hide your newly created admin account by -

Go to registry editor and navigate to this key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList


Here create a new "
DWORD value ", write its name as the “How to hack" (the username that you entered in the previous step),now you can live with your admin account forever :)

Note: For the ones that are having problems with step one. What I would do because you do not have write access to the directory you can use a live version of Linux. Copy the cmd.exe to a flash drive. Boot into Linux and copy the cmd.exe to the file that needs to be replaced. In Linux you can bypass those read/write permissions.

Reset / Remove / Bypass a BIOS or CMOS Password

BIOS passwords are used to add some extra security to computers. You can either set a password to prevent access to BIOS settings or to prevent PC from booting.
But sometimes this extra security might become a pain when you forget the BIOS password or someone changes your system BIOS password intentionally.
But there is no need to worry. There are many known ways to reset / remove / bypass the password:

  • By removing CMOS battery
  • By using motherboard jumper
  • By using MS DOS command
  • By using software
  • By using Backdoor BIOS password

Now I'll try to explain each method one by one:


DISCLAIMER: This information is intended for experienced users. It is not intended for basic users, hackers, or computer thieves. Please do not try any of following procedures if you are not familiar with computer hardware. We'll not be responsible for the use or misuse of this information, including personal injury, loss of data or hardware damage. So use it at your own risk.


* By removing CMOS battery:


Almost all motherboards use a small coin sized CMOS battery to store all BIOS settings along with the password. To reset the password, unplug the PC, open the cabinet and remove the CMOS battery for approx. 15-30 minutes and then put it back. It'll reset all BIOS settings as well as the password and you'll need to re-enter all settings. If it fails, then try to remove the battery for at least one hour.


* By Using Motherboard Jumper:

Almost all motherboards contain a jumper that can clear all CMOS settings along with the BIOS password. The location of this jumper varies depending upon the motherboard brand. You should read your motherboard manual to check its location. If you don't have the manual then look for the jumpers near the CMOS battery. Most of the manufacturer label the jumper as CLR, CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, etc.
When you find the jumper, look carefully. There will be 3 pins and the jumper will be joining the center pin to either left or right pin. What you need to do, is remove the jumper and join the center pin to the opposite pin. e.g. if the jumper joins center pin to left pin, then remove it and join center pin to right pin. Now wait for a few seconds and then again remove the jumper and join the center pin to left pin.
Make sure to turn the PC off before opening the cabinet and resetting the jumper.


* By Using MS DOS Command:




This method works only if you have access to the system when its turned on because this method requires MS DOS. Open Command Prompt from Programs menu and provide following commands one bye one:
debug
o 70 2E
o 71 FF
quit

NOTE: The first character in the above commands is English alphabet "o" and not the number 0.
After providing the above commands, restart your system and it should reset the CMOS Settings along with the BIOS password.

If you are curious to know how it works? then let me explain the above commands:
In this method we are using the Debug tool of MS DOS. The "o" character present at first in these commands, outputs the values to IO ports. The number 70 and 71 are port numbers which are used to access CMOS memory. By providing FF value we are telling CMOS that there is an invalid checksum and it resets the CMOS settings as well as BIOS password.


* By Using Software:

There are a few software which can also reset CMOS settings or BIOS password or both within a few clicks. But as stated above you should have access to a system which is turned on and should have access to MS DOS or MS Windows:





* By Using Backdoor BIOS Password:
 
Some BIOS manufacturer put a backdoor password in BIOS which always works irrespective of what password you have set in BIOS. Its a master password which is used for testing and troubleshooting purposes.

Computer account password removal using PC Login Now 2.0

PCLoginNow is an easy-to-use tool to reset local administrator and other accounts passwords on Windows system. No need to reinstall the system. It resets Windows passwords and Windows security settings instantly. All version of Windows are completely supported. It’s an incredible CD for Home users and Businesses. And most of all, it’s the most popular and safe solution for removing your Windows password until now. Besides the abilities of resetting passwords, PCLoginNow can also help you maintain, change accounts policy setting and properties. You can easily upgrades an general account to administrator level, lock or unlock those accounts you don’t need anymore, And moreover, all of these are done without booting your tedious, time-consuming Windows System.The most powerful feature PCLoginNow have is to support Syskey. SYSKEY is an optional feature since Windows NT 4.0 SP3. It is meant to protect against offline password cracking attacks so that the SAM database would still be secure even if someone had a copy of it. Even though the system registry is protected by Syskey, PCLoginNow can easily bypass this mechanism and reset the Windows passwords.

Only 4 simple steps are required to turn a limited user account into administrator.


1. Download PCLoginNow & Free ISO Burner

2. Burn the ISO image to a CD/DVD.




3. Boot up the computer with the CD/DVD.

4. Click the Next button when you see the message that says “PC Login Now! is ready to

start, please click NEXT to continue…”

5. Select the Windows system that is found by PC Login Now program.

6. Select the user account that you want to edit, check “is Administrator” and click Next.




7. Reboot and the user is now a local administrator of the computer.

I find this tool amazing because it can turn a user from zero into hero. I understand that some students are adventurous and would like to install or configure the system the way they like it but they cannot do it with a limited user account. Hence, they find a way to secretly upgrade their limited account to a local computer administrator and now they can do whatever they want. We cannot set a BIOS password because if the students entered the wrong security password for 3 times, it’ll be locked and we’ll have to contact HP support and get them to reset it. If you have a way to prevent from the students from editing user accounts without logging in as administrator, please share it with me.
