Cracking Password With OphCrack

If no request for help from my friends, I probably would never learn about this Ophcrack ... hehe .. : D. I would like to thanks on his software development.
Ophcrack is a Linux-based software that can be used to crack password on Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac OS, but of course with different versions.

In Windows, Ophcrack Live CD (bootable) is usually more frequent use than Ophcrack Nonbootable .. (due to be installed in advance using admin access) .. hmm ..

How to run Ophcrack?

First step Download Ophcrack...

Ophcrack Download here for (all platforms) or (live CD)

then burn the ISO files on a CD ..

This time we try to use a Live CD ..
(case: we are an administrator who forgot the password)

1. Booting Live CD Ophcrack 2.3.1, to show 3 options:

Ophcrack Graphic Mode

Vesa Ophcrack Graphic Mode

Ophcrack Text Mode

2. Select -> Ophcrack Graphic Mode

3. Wait a while, until the location of the Windows installation is found .. (you should make the black coffee, or buy snacks first,, or want a cigarette ..):D

Once completed in found, the system will run Ophcrack 2.3.1, then will break the Windows password automatically.
