This user-friendly password recovery software efficiently detects and recovers passwords from multiple SAM databases across different operating systems and hard disk drives. The newly released version includes a Linux-based Active@ LiveCD for added convenience in the Ultimate package.
This software becomes particularly useful when an Administrator's password is forgotten or lost, as it allows you to easily reset the password without the need to re-install and re-configure the operating system. This saves you time and effort.
One of the most remarkable features of Active@ Password Changer is its ability to reset your password without losing any data or files. You can rest assured that your important information will remain intact.
The software automatically detects and displays all SAM (Microsoft Security Databases) files, making it convenient for you to choose the one that corresponds to your specific system. Moreover, it also offers a manual SAM file selection feature, giving you precise control over the files you want to reset.
Active@ Password Changer supports various disk partitioning styles, including MBR and GPT, as well as file systems like FAT, exFAT, NTFS, and HFS+. It also caters to different hard drive types, such as IDE, SATA, eSATA, USB, SSD, SCSI disks, and RAIDs.
In cases involving older operating systems, the software provides support for DOS versions like MS-DOS, PC-DOS, DR-DOS, FreeDOS, OpenDOS, as well as Windows versions for Windows 95, 98, and ME.
Furthermore, the ultimate package includes a Linux-based Active@ LiveCD that can boot on the latest x86 & x64 UEFI secure boot systems, granting users even more flexibility.
With Active@ Password Changer, you have the ability to log in as an Administrator or a specific user with a blank password. This makes it a vital tool for password resetting and system maintenance, ensuring the integrity of your system.
