Clear Windows Password - Local Account

Boot to Debian based Linux
sudo apt install chntpw
navigate to windows/system32/config folder
open command prompt
chntpw -l SAM (will list users - use small letter "L" not number "one")
chntpw -u USERNAME SAM
1 clear password
then do logical progression

Let me count the ways of doing this
. . . but if you have a flash drive with Debian on it, why bother looking for another way?
Just apt get to it :)
