Forgotten Word PW

[MichaelF81]

We recently found some files on my companies network that need to be accessed, but they are password protected. They are windows 2000, but the employee no longer works here to give us the password.

Without buying software does anyone know how to use a hex-editor to find the password?

I personally user UltraEdit-32

No-one on this site will help crack a password for any reason I'm afraid.

A quick Google Search can turn up various ways to circumvent the MS passwords without resorting to hex editors. May I recommend you try this approach?

Cheers,
Dave
