I lost my Vist password

We did ultimately arrive at the right username, and the "<un> *" command successfully changed the password allowing us to log in to the account, whereas "<un> <pw>" did not. While I cannot rule out user error in entering the "<un> <pw>" command, I can only personally vouch for the "<un> *" command.

I'd like to personally vouch for "net user <un> <pw>" as I've used it multiple times on multiple installations of windows vista and windows 7 :armflap:
