Finding Outlook Express password

(1/3) > >>

techidave:
I need some help in locating the OE password from a non booting hard drive.  I can see all the files on the hard drive when I slave it to my computer.  I have tried Nirsoft's MailPassView but it cannot see but the booting hard drive.

Is there a way that I can find this out?

thanks
dave

Google for RockXP and see if a copy of that will do it.
Luck. :Thmbsup:

RockXP doesn't seem to lookfor anything other than product keys and activation details for XP:

http://www.ubcd4win.com has some password recovery tools and can connect to non-booting windows xp registries. You may be able to recover the passwords from the registry in hashed format and recover them the one of the password tools.

Never tried this but worth a look:

Don't you have to have a working system to use that? Also it only seems to support Outlook account not Outlook Express (which isn't a version of Outlook at all) - though the comment that Outlook and OE store their passwords in similar registry locations may mean that it will do that.
