Leuk probleem.  Autologin ingesteld op Windows 7, maar het wachtwoord is verlopen. Dan kom je er dus never nooit meer in. Tenzij... je op slinkse wijze Super User Privilege (System User in Windows) kunt krijgen om het admin's of autologon account te wijzigen.

Steps:

1. First of all rename this file located in system32 sethc.exe to sethc.exe.old and create a copy of cmd.exelocated in same directory. Now rename the new copied cmd.exeto sethc.exe. These files are locted in C:\Windows\System32\.
   Note that Windows 7 does not allow you to modify system files. To do that you can get any Live Bootable Linux which can be booted through USB. There are tons of them, choose any of them. Now when system is booted in Linux mount Windows Parition and perform above task.
2. Now Reboot into Windows. At the login Screen. Press ShiftKey 5 times. A Command Window will appear (This Prompt will be having System User privileges). Now type following command to change password.

C:\> net user admin new-password

Replace adminwith your username and new-passwordwith the new desired password.

3.  You can now Login with New password. You also need to revert back the changes you made in 1st step. You can again login through live bootable media and change the files to their original state.

Hope It helps. Let me know if this worked for you. :)
