Is it possible....

.... for me to access another users account on Vista if i'm the Administrator on the computer??

If so, How???????????

Control Panel>User Accounts>Remove Password?

_______________________________________________________________________

Access the account itself or the files in the account?

Erm, the account itself - As if i am the account holder....

Oh & @ matt3454 - Thanks but i suppose i should have mentioned that i'd like to do it without them knowing.... :-/

Thanks for your help guys!

snooper!

Unless you know their current password (and you don't, obviously) so you can reset it back to it afterwards, there's no way of doing it that I can think of.

Haha! Well I do have a good & moral reason, but if there's no way then there's no way!!

Thanks anyway tho guys....

You would have just asked her then.

I'm sure there is a way to get what you want. Probably by copying the profile to be the default admin profile, then using a boot cd to reset the password, but it would be quite messy, you do risk bricking the install and if that user account is the default one then she'll still know the password has changed, as you still won't know what to change it back to.

Wow sounds a bit too complex for me lol!!
