Hi there,
I need some help with a couple of coding issues.
I have a password to my windows machine that my kid put on there and promptly forgot.
the code looks like this (this is only part of it)

I believe windows passwords are stored in an encrypted format. You would need a password cracker to break it. You might try just renaming the extension on the .pwl file (i.e., .bak). If I remember right, this will revert to a blank password. If this works, you can then delete the file.
