Your files are locked with a password.
That password is hashed
for example apple = $1$u6LCexMv$BXha6te1tEk3dBMqjju6F0
it is the hash that you files are really locked with
when you change your password your new password gets a new hash
for example bunny = $1$XVqEBQYz$1GETn25VbpjZGtmJfTmGk1

if you change your password back to the oreginal it may or may not work depending on what hashing algorithm you compuer decides to use.

Basiclly you are screwed, I suggest you get a computer forensics expert to help you but their services are not cheap.

Great tool and I’d like to use it in a .bat file I have to check to see if a specific application is running on a couple of the computers in my little home network. The problem is that I don’t have passwords, no logon password, and so when I do:
TASKLIST /S remote-computer-name /FI “imagename eq myapp.exe” or
TASKLIST /S 192.168.rrr.r (remote computer’s static IP)

I am prompted for the password for the local_computer_nameuser. This nor the remote computer have passwords assigned.

Both computers are in the same workgroup. It works fine if the /S is left off (local computer) or if /S 192.168.lll.l (local computer’s static IP) is used

Any suggestions?

Thanx in advance, Skip

Unfortunately, it appears that the tasklist command is not available in the home edition of XP. I appologize for not trying the command in both versions before I wrote the recipe. Of course, there are currently five different editions of XP (that I know about).

I must be doing something wrong, as I tried to use this command from the dos prompt and the windows dos prompt with no results.
I went to full dos and typed tasklist (then enter)
Then I went to start/run and typed cmd to get a dos prompt on the desktop and typed the same. No list.

I am using Home XP.. What am I doing wrong.

thanx
