Create a password reset disk in Vista.

This is one of new features in Vista which lets users reset the passwords if they forget their passwords when they log on. All you need is one removable disk. USB memory stick is very suitable to use as reset disk. Note that you don’t need a 1GB or larger USB stick coz the size of the file to be created is juz 2KB. To get started, go to Control Panel and then choose User Accounts. On the left side, click ‘Create a password reset disk’ link. The Wizard will pop up and follow the on-screen instructions. Remember that you need to insert USB stick to create reset disk. After successfully create the reset disk, it’s very important to pace this memory stick in a safe place becoz anyone can reset your password using this disk. When you can’t log on, all u need to do is to insert the disk and click the ‘Reset password’ link and follow the instructions to create new password. You also don’t need to update the reset disk again – you can use the same disk whenevry you can’t log in.
