Ophcrack Live CD for Windows 10?

[gnatys27]

I need to recover my lost password on unused laptop that comes with Windows 10. I searched a bit and a lot of people recommending Ophcrack. Unfortunately, I can't find the Live CD for Windows 10. Any suggestion?

If it's a local account just use hiren boot disc and NT Offline password utility you can just blank out the password.

Appreciated. It seems more complicated. I will read the tutorial first.

It's actually pretty easy. Should only take a minute or 2.

You can read about it on their website, both Ophcrack and NT Offline password are overly complex .
You'd better read some simple tutorials first ,just like this :How to Reset Windows 10 Login/Administrator Password If Forgot
Which will help you a lot .

The structure of the SAM database hasn't changed in Windows 10, so if you're using a local account the NT offline tool works fine. Hiren live boot also comes with a GUI based tool that works called Lazesoft Recovery Suite. If you're using a pin or MS account they are not stored the same and the tools won't work.
