HACKING WINDOWS ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD

This article introduce very simple way to hack Administrator Password on Win
XP System.This tutorial tells you how to break administrator password and gain
access to admin account.Also if you need to crack/reveal the password you find
the
steps
here
to
accomplish
that
also.
First of all let us have a close look at the Security flaws/Loopholes in Win
XP
Microsoft stores all Security Information in many files but the main file is the
SAM file (Security Accounts Manager)! this file contain security information
about users(mainly Password).You can explore the SAM file here in this folder
$windows\system32\config
SAM is the file which contains the passwords in the form of a HASH.A HASH
is a mathematically irreversible form of encryption,so that theres no way of
decrypting the password back .Also there's a file called SECURITY that contains
a list of all users in the system & their related information
We will Not be able To copy them Under XP since it doesn't support any
attempt
to
copy
this
file.
The

Idea

Behind

Cracking

the

password

The Idea is simple I will explain it manually and it can also be

programmed.Here's
the
idea..
The SAM contain's a Security Information(password/s), so I have created a Free
Windows XP SP2 Logon account (Administrator Account without password) that
means when windows Launch it Will enter directly to the system without asking
about any password.So, this SAM file contain's an open password(no
password).This SAM file is available for download for your further use in
breaking
the
password
of
the
system.
So, the idea here is to replace the SAM file of victim's computer(which contain's
password) with the SAM file which contains no password.When this is done the
password of the victim's account is erased and it let's anyone to login to the
computer
as
if
there
is
no
password
set
by
admin.

But this SAM file cannot be manipulated(copy/rename/replace/delete) when the

operating system is running.So here are some of the ideas to replace this SAM
file.
1.If there are two OS installed on the computer we can boot from other OS and
replace
the
SAM
file
located
at
$:\windows\system32\config
2.If there is only a single OS then use the tool NTFS4DOS to access the location of
the SAM and SECURITY files from the boot command prompt.
NTFS4DOS creates a bootable floppy disk.You can use this floppy to access the
NTFS drives by booting the system and mounting it to DOS.
Here

are

the

steps

to

be

followed

to

break

the

password.

1- Download My SAM file which I have Included in Downloads

2- Go to the target Machine , and try to Access it by Booting from the
floppy created by NTFS4DOS or by other OS(incase you have two OS
installed)
3- After Getting Access to the Boot Command prompt c:> Go to the
config
folder
$windir$\system32\config
And Copy the SAM File and SYSTEM File(we will need it later) To
other any folder, Then replace the original SAM file(In
$windows$\system32\config) with the SAM file i have provided
5-

Reboot

and

Make

windows

enter

Normally

6- Yeah, Now you can directly enter the system without any
password.
ie:The
PW
is
broken!.

Now you have broken the system administrator password and you can directly
enter system.Now one phase of the password hack is over.If you need to
know/crack the admin password then you can use the two files SAM &
SECURITY that you have copied in the above STEP-3(This step is optional).It is
done
as
follows.
Download

any

1.LC4

of

the

(Lophtcrack).New

following
version

Password

crackers

is

LC5

OR
2.SAMINSIDE
LC5

is

better

according

to

me

You can also contact me sriki.crazy@gmail.com for those two tools if you don't
find
it.
Once you have either of the two password cracking tools,you can load the SAM &
SECURITY files and start the cracking process.This process may take a long time
since it is Bruteforce method depending on the size of the password.
NOTE: THE ABOVE METHOD IS ALSO APPLICABLE FOR WINDOWS VISTA
IF THE ABOVE TRICK FAILS AND IF YOU GET AN ERROR-HERE IS
THE
SOLUTION
FOR
IT
