Windows cannot change your password - BUT IT DID.
Hi all,

I'm currently using Vista Home Premium with 1 admin account and 1 guest account.

Sadly when I went to change my password for my admin account, I was prompted saying that my password was unable to be changed. I thought nothing of it. I tried to change it again but it said my "current" password is incorrect? It was right the first time.

I am forced to conclude Windows has changed my password.
I use my previous password - NOT WORKING.
I use the password I tried to change it to - NOT WORKING.

So I shut down my computer, only to open it the next day with every password attempt failing.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Can anyone recommend any fix. All I need is my files back, even if I do have to re-install Windows itself.

I really need my account back. It has my whole life on there; sadly not backed up.

Your help and patience is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Melissa.
