Default Forgot logon password -- what do I do now

I forgot my logon password.
I know where it is in the windows directory but can't view
it. It is in a *.pwl file.

Can you help me, please?

Thank you.

Rename the usename.PWL file (replace username with your login name) to
username.BAK and reboot. You can now select a new logon password.
