My parents have been typing all night on a document, with the family's login.
Autosave has _not_ been turned on for some stupid reason unknown to me.

They've left the document open but un-saved.

Naturally my younger sibblings have decided that just to be pricks they'd change the user password, only nobody knows what its been changed to.

So, armed with my Administrator login, is it possible to change the password (I'd rather not kill it and lose all saved passwords for everything in that account) without shutting the machine down??

Cheers

Cheers
