How to Bypass Administrator Password on Windows 11?

[JKnessary1220]

I am wondering if anyone knows any methods or tools for bypassing administrator password on Windows 11. I am looking for a safe and free solution that does not involve any complex technical processes, as I have forgotten the administrator password. I have tried a few password recovery methods but none of them seem to work. I do not want to reset my device as it would result in loss of important data. I need your advice. 

Thanks.

[Update] For quick reference, here is the working method suggested by Joseph220. It is quite easy and effective to reset Windows 11 password on my computer and here is the screenshot:

Hello,

If you're using Microsoft account, try to reset the password online using another device, visit this link:

https://account.live.com/password/reset

After resetting the password, see if you can login to original device with new password.

If you're using local account, refer this support article:

Ouch, that's a tough spot to be in. Been there before, and it can be super frustrating.  First and foremost, always remember: never try to bypass passwords on a computer you don't own or have permission to access, for obvious ethical and legal reasons.

Now, onto a few methods you could consider:

Offline NT Password & Registry Editor: Despite its intimidating name, this is a pretty straightforward tool. It doesn't actually recover the password but rather removes it. You'll need to boot from a USB drive created with this tool, and then follow the steps it provides. It's free and has been around for quite a long time. Just make sure you're following a good guide and, again, have backed up your data in case things go sideways.

Windows password recovery tool with GUI:

iSeePassword Windows password recovery tool is a graphical tool that allows you to bypass, reset, or change forgotten local / Microsoft account passwords on Windows. It also lets you enable and unlock Windows accounts that are disabled, locked out, or expired.

Ophcrack: This is a free Windows password cracker based on rainbow tables. It's a bit more complicated but it's been proven effective many times. You'll need to download the LiveCD ISO, burn it to a USB or CD, and boot from it.

Password Reset Disk: If, in the past, you've created a password reset disk (I know, who remembers to do that, right?), you can use that to reset the password. It's the easiest method if you have the disk, but if you didn't create one before forgetting your password, this won't be an option.

A few tips:

Backup: I can't stress this enough. Whenever you're doing anything related to system passwords, there's always a risk, so make sure your important data is backed up.

Safety First: Download tools only from their official websites or trusted sources. There are many "fake" tools out there that can make things worse.

I hope one of these solutions works out for you. It's a tough situation, but with a bit of patience, you should be able to get back in. Good luck!
