Hi Robert, thanks for your explanation, the steps were perfect. I was cracking my head brute forcing our office's old Windows Server 2016 hosting an old DB. Almost one week staring at it drains my soul. Once again, please accept my thanks.

You helped me a lot with my HyperV (Just for training purposes)! Funny though that I just remembered the forgotten password right when I was about to change the password in Windows GUI, that I entered over cmd...

@Robert McMillen What if i use windows server 2016 DVD instead of server 2019 only to enter cmd, will it work?
Please advise >>>

Thanks a lot for this. I also added /domain /Active:Yes in order to unlock the administrator account at the same time as changing the password.

After resetting password, do I need to do anything else in order to have those files back to normal state?

Nice work and thank you for the video. I have followed instructions to the letter, on windows boot up the ease access will not work. Tried safe mode works in a manner will on change the password on the domain level. Look like windows defender kicks in and removes the utilman.exe (CMD.EXE). Any pointers to get around this. Cheers in advance.

Sir, I have followed the steps but on typing C: it says 'the device is not ready'. I checked the diskpart as well but it says 'Disk 0 and No media'. I'm really stuck. Could you please help?

Wont this be a security flaw? Anybody can get a win server installation drive and change anybody's local admin password?
