Windows 7 Password Reset Help

[b422063]

About once a year I boot into Windows for something or other. Unfortunately this means I frequently forget my password. I've once again forgotten my password.

I have access to the hard drive through a Linux boot, so can modify files as needed.

Anyone give me a helpful solution?

Thanks

Any alternative methods as I don't have a CD drive or a USB stick?

I always use the utilman method. Guide is for win8 but same applies for win7 (as well as many many versions of windows server......)
