How to remove Reset password link at logon window?

[grofaty]

Hi,
when starting Windows 7 Professional logon window appears to enter userid and password. If password is typed in incorrectly the link "Reset Password" appears. How to disable this link? I don't want someone is messing with my password reset.
Thanks

How do we know that you are really you and not someone else trying to hack in?

@goombawaho, don't understand what you try to say. I would like to disable "Reset Password" option on logon window, so nobody could reset password from logon window.

I don't want someone is messing with my password reset.

The main point here is my password. If nobody knows your password, nobody can reset it to anything else. You need to provide your present password in order to change it/reset it to something else.

Have fun.

no you don't you just need a repair disk or the original windows install media, windows password is a joke. A 6 minute youtube video will show you how to bypass it and reset it to whatever you want. no special utilities or anything. using a hack of the stickykeys function. I won't link it here but any one with a brain can search youtube for it.

Thought the stickykeys method only worked on XP and earlier? Regardless, you are correct of the password being a joke. I have two commonly used testing discs that are free, and commonly recommended here for HDD and RAM testing, that have password resetting capabilities. Can be bypassed in a couple minutes....
