Password Recovery Services

 

What & Why

Being locked out of your own computer can be incredibly frustrating—and potentially costly if you lose access to important files or business data. Our Password Recovery service is designed to safely reset or recover lost Windows, macOS, and Linux account credentials without data loss. Whether you’ve forgotten your login after a long break, inherited a machine with unknown credentials, or suspect malware has compromised your access, our certified technicians use secure, industry‑approved methods to get you back in faster than you’d think.

Our Process

We follow a five‑step workflow that prioritizes data integrity and security:

1. Initial Assessment & Backup

   • Access Check: We determine your operating system and account type (local, Microsoft account, Active Directory, FileVault, etc.).

   • Optional Backup: If disk health is questionable, we create a quick image of critical user data to protect against unforeseen issues.

2. Credential Reset Techniques

   • Windows Local Accounts: We leverage offline password reset utilities to clear or change your password without touching your files.

   • Microsoft & Azure AD Accounts: We guide you through official account‑recovery flows, assisting with email/SMS verification and secure two‑step resets.

   • macOS FileVault Accounts: If FileVault is enabled, we use recovery keys or Apple ID integration to unlock and reset your login.

   • Linux & UNIX Systems: We boot into a live rescue environment and use specialized tools to securely reset user credentials within the system’s authentication files, ensuring full access without data loss.

3. Verification & Access Restoration

   • We reboot your machine to confirm successful password reset or recovery.

   • You test your new login to ensure full access to your desktop, files, and applications.

4. Account Hardening & Best Practices

   • We help you choose a strong, memorable password and show you how to enable password‑management tools (e.g., Bitwarden).

   • We enable system features like PIN, fingerprint, or face recognition (where supported) for easier yet secure logins.

5. Security Audit & Handoff

   • We scan for malware or keyloggers that might have compromised your credentials.

   • We provide a concise report of all actions taken and recommendations to prevent future lockouts (e.g., backup your recovery key).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Will you erase my data when resetting the password?
A: No. We use non‑destructive utilities that clear or change your password without touching your files or settings.

Q2: What if I’ve lost my FileVault recovery key?
A: We’ll explore Apple‑ID–based recovery options first. If those aren’t available, you may need to provide proof of device ownership before we proceed with data‑recovery alternatives.

Q3: Can you recover domain accounts (e.g., at a workplace)?
A: For corporate or Active Directory accounts, we work with your IT administrator to reset your password using approved enterprise tools.

Q4: Do you need physical access to the machine?
A: Yes. All recovery steps require in‑person service or shipping the device to our shop for secure handling.

Q5: How can I avoid future lockouts?
A: We recommend enabling multi‑factor authentication where supported, keeping recovery keys backed up in a secure location, and using a password manager to store credentials safely.
